A dwarf named Khîl has been spreading lies about the Gem-cutter family, and Authi wants you to find him and get him to stop.
'You say Erfith mentioned the name Khîl? That does not surprise me. He is one of the Zhélruka, a clan of dwarves from the east, but he has lived here in Erebor for many years and caused no serious trouble... until now! He is a spinner of tales, and in my experience he has never had a truthful thing to say; I have found his untrue tales to be harmless, for the most part. He has never spoken ill of my family before. Why has he now begun to spread these lies about the Gem-cutters?
'Go ask him why he has chosen this course, ${PLAYER}. He tends to loiter outside, by the entrance to the Lonely Mountain, but I have not seen him today.'
Khîl might be found outside the entrance to the Lonely Mountain.
