'Since I returned to the Spire, I have noticed a few of the smiths of my kin looking unwell. They have toiled tirelessly for the Mistress, and I think their hunger has finally caught up to them.

'In truth, we all hunger. We are allowed only meagre rations of old meat and overripe vegetables. The folk of Nurn bear the burden of feeding all of Mordor, and there is little left for us once Mistress Zôreth's kin and the Orcs have at it.

'The measly rations that still remain are piled about here in the barracks, and I would have you gather them for the smiths. My kin may be displeased, but the health of our folk is worth more than one missed meal.

'Offer the smiths a brief respite and some rations, and if the Mistress is displeased with me for allowing it, She can come speak to me herself!'
