Quest:A Drink of the Worst Character

Bestowal dialogue

'Greetings! I am Nathalan, and soon I will make a name for myself in the Inn League by completing their Challenge...not that such a title would be of much consequence.

'You see, anyone can complete the Challenge. However, for one to truly appreciate a drink's character, one must surround oneself with an atmosphere that matches it. The hearty ales of the Shire are best enjoyed in those lands, while the purity of Elf-wines taste their finest if drunk within their refuges.

'Yet there are drinks of the worst quality and these must be consumed in the worst of surroundings. I have come here looking for an ale to match these lands, yet can find none. However, all is not lost, as I have heard of something called "Swill" which can only be found at The Forsaken Inn. Would you bring me this drink? I fear I have too much to accomplish here to make the journey myself.'

Background

You have encountered another member of the Inn League, who is seeking the worst ale in all of Eriador so that he can complete the Inn League's Challenge.

Objective 1

The Forsaken Inn is in the Lone-lands, far to the south of Angmar. Nathalan is in Aughaire in Angmar, far to the north of the Lone-lands.

Nathalan told you of his belief that for one to truly appreciate the character of a drink, it must be drank in surroundings that match its character. As a suitable drink for Angmar, he has asked you to collect the worst drink in all of Eriador: "Swill." This drink can only be found at The Forsaken Inn in the Lone-lands.

• Collect a mug of Swill
• Return with the Swill before time expires!

• Bring the Swill to Nathalan
• Return with the Swill before time expires!

'Ah, excellent! You have the Swill. By the look of it, I can tell it truly is the worst ale in all of Eriador. Well, now I shall see how horrible it really is, shall I not?

'My thanks again, friend!'
