Bestowal dialogue
Kate Henseed to a Human character
'Oh, hello there! You are the one who came with that Ranger, Amdir, the other night, aren't you? What a tale he told of your adventure. You must be quite brave!
'Oh, don't mind my blather! I think Amdir wanted to speak with you. Last I saw him, he was resting on the ground just south of here, around the corner of the big building there.
'He looked awfully pale. That hurt he took must be worse than it looked.'
Kate Henseed to a Hobbit character
'Well, hello there! Did you get a good rest? I hope so, after hearing about all excitement you had the other night!
'Your friend Amdir was looking for you, and it seems he was busy last night. He returned with two more hobbits. One of them was that lass Celandine you were looking for. Unfortunately, the poor fellow was hurt in the rescue. It doesn't look too serious though!
'You should go speak with him now. He's sitting just to the south of here, resting. There, around the corner of that big building.'
Mundo Sackville-Baggins to a Human character
'Gracious, just look where they want me to stay! This is nothing like home. And they say I can't go home until those Blackwold fellows are dealt with. This is outrageous!
'Well, I don't need you hanging about now, bothering me. Go talk to that Amdir fellow. He's sitting just south of here.
'I've no interest in sharing my troubles with the likes of you. Now leave me be!'
Mundo Sackville-Baggins to a Hobbit character
'Have we met before? I'm sure we haven't... you don't look all that important to me. I can't see why Celandine persists in mingling with just any hobbit.
'Well, after what I've been through -- taken captive by brigands, no less! -- I simply don't feel like talking to anyone. Why don't you go bother that Ranger, Amdir, just over there to the south.
'Not much us in rescues... he got himself stabbed! Well, he looks a rough fellow, so he's been stabbed more than once in life, I'm sure!'
Background
After rescuing you from the Blackwold brigands and a mysterious Black Rider, the Ranger Amdir brought you to the village of Archet in the Chetwood, east of Bree-town. The town, under threat of attack, prepares a defence against the Blackwolds.
Objective 1
Amdir may be found resting on the ground near the centre of Archet, outside The Mad Badger Inn.
The Ranger Amdir has spread word that he wishes to speak with you.
- 'Ah, (name}. It is good to see you whole and hale. You proved yourself quite the hero, leading the hobbits and me here to Archet last evening. I must confess that I do not recall much of the journey.
- 'Nay, do not concern yourself with my injuries; though they appear grave, I have taken worse. My only fear is that the blade may have been poisoned, but young Celandine is seeing to my needs.
- 'There is a matter that needs immediate attention, one that I cannot undertake. Captain Brackenbrook, the founder of the garrison here in Archet, suffers my presence only because of my injuries. Few in Bree-land trust Rangers.'
