'For the Dúnedain of Tornhad life is a steady routine, always preparing for the next mission. It wears on you after awhile, ${PLAYER}. Will the day for which we constantly prepare ever arrive? Who can say? For my part I devise means of keeping myself entertained, without which I might go mad!

'Some of our number prepare for an eastward journey and have need of some caches that lie hidden throughout the Angle. Mithrendan has charged me with recovering three such caches, and I will do so, but what say you to this suggestion: Why not make this a contest?

'You shall go to the location of each cache, and if I can reach it before you do, or open the cache without you detecting my presence, I shall win! This will allow me to practice my skill at the art of stealth, Mithrendan will receive the supplies he needs, and you will test your perceptive ability. There are only winners here, ${PLAYER}. The first cache is north-east of Tornhad, beyond a still pond, nestled among the rocks west of the base of a swiftly-flowing waterfall. I look forward to besting you at this game!'
