'Are you the one called ${PLAYER}?

'I have heard tales of your adventures in the vales, but tell me, have you passed near to Málvang yet?

'Until recent days it was a farmers' village, but the Orcs came upon it in the night and set it aflame in some cruel sort of amusement as they travelled north on the road to Hultvís. My family was fortunate enough to survive, but others... were lost in the fires. Ríkmar told me the few remains of our kinsfolk that were found in Málvang had been given to their families for burial, but all else was lost.

'I have no reason to doubt the words of my chieftain, but I do not wish to believe it so! Couldn't some memory still linger in the ruins?

'Would you travel to the ruins of Málvang, ${PLAYER}? Search for anything that remains intact that I might return it to its keeper or honour its memory myself!'
