'Just a moment, ${PLAYER}!'

Dori asks the raven if it has seen any sign of Nori or his expedition. The raven croaks and chitters in answer. All of a sudden, the raven spreads its wings and looses a shrill cry.

'I understand, friend.'

Dori turns his gaze to you.

'These are not glad tidings, ${PLAYER}. Nori is nowhere to be found, and two of the three ravens sent to search for my brother have become lost in the Grey Mountains. One flew for the Rushgate far to the north-west, and the other... the other may have gone to Thikil-gundu. And that is not the half of it! The ravens have spied black-arrows of Gundabad lying in wait beyond the forest, and they have fletched their arrows with the feathers of ravens! It is also said they are practised in the art of stealth, but I have not known many Orcs to possess such patience. If we are to reach Thikil-gundu, we shall have to remain on guard.

'Ride to the Rushgate along the Men Angrún and search for the lost raven. If you encounter any of those black-arrows, defeat them and reclaim the feathers they have stolen. Such an insult cannot go unanswered!

'When you have reached the Rushgate, turn back and ride to meet us along the road to Thikil-gundu. Our journey draws near to its end, ${PLAYER}. Let us not falter at so late an hour!'

One of Arcah's ravens can be found at the Rushgate.
