As you stand and curiously look at the sparrow, it lowers its beak to point at a small scroll bound to its leg. You take the scroll and begin to read it.

The scroll contains hasty writing which you swiftly identify as the writing of Radagast the Brown. As you read on, Radagast explains that in his travels he spoke to many of the creatures of the Vales of Anduin. Many among them told of a strange blight creeping into the western reaches of the Gladden Fields, perhaps even in the waters of the Gladden itself. After searching the eastern reaches of the Gladden Fields, he discovered a number of tainted gladdens, but he fears the blight will be even more severe nearer to marsh-tender nest known as Gilvamyr and beneath the Gladden Falls. Before concluding, Radagast notes that his friend has, and very kindly he adds, borne an empty phial to the Gladden Fields that you might retrieve a sample of the water of the Gladden Falls.

As the sparrow appears content to remain perched nearby, you decide to investigate the disturbances at Gilvamyr and search for signs of the blight Radagast encountered among the gladdens near the Gladden Falls.

Gladdens can be found throughout the Gladden Fields, but Radagast is especially interested in those that have grown near the Gladden Falls.

Radagast is concerned something has befouled the waters of the Gladden. You should examine gladdens near the Gladden Falls and see if they show any signs of corruption.
