'At last we meet, ${PLAYER}! Spakorth told us of the aid you brought his expedition, and I wished to look upon the outsider myself!

'You may call me Sversting, and I am the forge-master of Lûghash - and the most skilled smith of all the Stout-axes that remain in Mordor! Aye, we are not as many as we once were... but it brings me great pride nonetheless!

'My works have earned me a great deal of Mistress Zôreth's favour, and she has told me of a great rumour she learned by spying upon the Men of Barad-dûr. She claims that our imprisoned King still lives, locked away in the depths of the Dark Tower!

'It is too great a tale for me to believe at once, but what if it were true? If King Greytooth were to return to his people at last, he must have a weapon befitting a King!

'Spakorth tells me you wish to aid us. Is that right? I would ask that you bring me wood from abandoned banner poles and chunks of sharp obsidian from the banks of the lava-floes. Also, should you encounter any of the shards of Barad-dûr that were hurled from the Dark Tower as it fell, gather as much as you can!

'It is time we Stout-axes took something from Sauron!'

Sversting can be found at the forges of Lûghash.

You have gathered much obsidian, wood, and even a shard of Barad-dûr itself. You should now deliver them to Sversting at the forges of Lûghash.
