Gandalf believes that the reappearance of Vagári the Wanderer may be related in some way to the darkness that has fallen on the Gladden Fields, and he has sent you to find the mysterious shade.
'That is enough for now, ${PLAYER}. I will continue to think on it, but I ask you to conduct a search throughout the Gladden Fields for signs of this mysterious presence. If Badwila's account can be trusted, as I think it can, you may find some clues about the shade's motivations at places where the Orcs and half-orcs gather. Search too on Tol Send, the Isle of the Flowers, and among the mounds of Tûn Melen.
'You are certain to find lesser shades among the fields as you search these places. Whether they are drawn here by the presence of the Wanderer or not, they pose a danger for the warm-blooded folk of the vales and you should defeat them if you can. It is my hope that your search will reveal why Vagári has returned to this place. If we were to learn that, we might learn much else of use to us.'
Gandalf has asked you to explore several locations in the Gladden Fields, defeating shades you find, and to search for Vagári the Wanderer.
