'Your friends can rest easy for the moment, ${CLASS}, but rest shall not soon come to me.

'Even in this form beyond death, I have done naught to stop the countless horrors I have witnessed, and I can bear it no longer. This fallen man of Númenor, Burudagath, perverts the banner of my father and kills without mercy... and the Wainriders that rose in answer to the strife in these lands have slain the men of your company with fear alone. These two foes stand in defiance of Gondor on the hills of Dagorlad... and there remains no force to stop them.

'Yet, I believe that I have found a means to set our foes upon each other.

'However, such a ruse demands swaying the attention of the Wainriders... and that shall be no simple task.'

Dol Acharn can be found in eastern Dagorlad.

Faramir has asked you to approach the hill to confirm his suspicions about the Wainriders. You should scout the hill carefully.
