'Your words are troubling. Leader Talfryn sent me here to look into rumours of dark tidings that were reaching us in Lhan Garan. Some fell-wind has swept across Swanfleet and Cardolan. The dead stir in their barrows, and Orcs are crawling over the ruined fortresses and forts.

'You say the young girl mentioned glowing balls of light? With the unrest around the barrows, the elhudan have also risen. I have seen their flickering lights at dusk, near Calarphel. Perhaps you will find some answers there.

'I will show you where I saw them, but I dare not go close myself. North of Herne is a small pond, around which the elhudan have been gathering in numbers. Meet me there.'

Gurthern believes that the missing child may have followed one of the elhudan, the glowing wisp-like orbs, into the wilderness of Tyrn Gorthad.

You should look for the elhudan that Gurthern saw around this area.
