Bestowal Dialogue

'I have sent the rest of the travelling party on to Linhir with instructions to aid the people there. Your report that supporters of the Heirs of Castamir maintained a presence in that city is worrisome to me; perhaps if we can give the townsfolk what help they need we will help reduce support for any of that sort who remain.

'I told Caebar to make a list of notable tasks. Meet up with him in Linhir and learn the content of his catalogue of things that need doing. Afterwards, he is to guide the company through Dor-en-Ernil and into the Ringló Vale. Arwen and I will meet up with you there, or in Lamedon if we meet with delays.'

Background

King Elessar and Queen Arwen's journey westward will next pass into Dor-en-Ernil and the Ringló Vale.

Objective 1

Caebar is by the eastern entrance of the town of Linhir, in King's Gondor.

King Elessar: 'I told Caebar to make a list of notable tasks. Meet up with him in Linhir and learn the content of his catalogue of things that need doing. Afterwards, he is to guide the company through Dor-en-Ernil and into the Ringló Vale. Arwen and I will meet up with you there, or in Lamedon if we meet with delays.'
Caebar: 'Oh, <name>, I am glad to see you, for I am at the end of my wits! The King instructed me to make a list of things we might do to aid the people of Linhir, but everyone I asked had a different idea of where to start! Some are concerned about the foes that still stalk Dor-en-Ernil, to the west of the river. Others claim the pests that inhabit the town have gotten out of control in recent weeks, others say the burned timbers that remain in Linhir pose a risk to the health of the citizenry, and some... well, I think some folk just want to talk.
'I don't know with which of these things you want to start, but the King did say we were to be comprehensive on his behalf! I will see to the burned timbers, but perhaps you can tackle the other items on the list?'

Objective 2

Caebar made a list of the most common complaints of Linhir's townsfolk: foes in Dor-en-Ernil, pests in the town, burned timbers in Linhir, and listening to the concerns of the people.

Caebar: 'Everyone I asked had a different idea of where to start! Some are concerned about the foes that still stalk Dor-en-Ernil, to the west of the river. Others claim the pests that inhabit the town have gotten out of control in recent weeks, others say the burned timbers that remain in Linhir pose a risk to the health of the citizenry, and some... well, I think some folk just want to talk.'

Objective 3

  • Talk to Caebar by the eastern entrance of Linhir, in King's Gondor

Caebar is by the eastern entrance of the town of Linhir, in King's Gondor.

Caebar: 'You took care of everything on the list? You are good at this, aren't you?
'The King asked me to direct everyone through Dor-en-Ernil and into the Ringló Vale, where he and Queen Arwen will rejoin us. I don't know why he chose me for this task... do you think he knows that I was born in Ethring? I might have mentioned it to you once when he was nearby, but surely he would not remember a thing like that!
'The grand lighthouse of Barad Rill is on our way, and I would not mind stopping to see it before we continue on to Ethring. I visited it when I was just a boy and found it most impressive. I heard a disturbing rumour that the lighthouse sustained some damage during the war, but perhaps that talk was exaggerated? I hope so, at any rate.'

Objective 4

Barad Rill is located to the south-west of Linhir, at the southern point of the peninsula of Dor-en-Ernil, in King's Gondor.

Caebar: 'The grand lighthouse of Barad Rill is on our way, and I would not mind stopping to see it before we continue on to Ethring. I visited it when I was just a boy and found it most impressive.

Caebar stares at the ruin of Barad Rill at the southern peninsula of Dor-en-Ernil, in King's Gondor.

Caebar: 'It is much worse than I expected, <name>. What manner of devilry did the Corsairs of Umbar harness to knock down such a structure as the grand lighthouse? But more than that: how could they bring themselves to do it?
'I did not bring much of my artwork with me when I left for Minas Tirith to join the service of the City as a scribe, but I did bring one piece: a sketch I made of this lighthouse when I was just a boy. Here, you can see it if you like.'

Objective 6

Caebar gave you a sketch of the lighthouse of Barad Rill, seen in happier days.

Objective 7

  • Talk to Caebar

Caebar stares at the ruin of Barad Rill at the southern peninsula of Dor-en-Ernil, in King's Gondor.

Caebar: 'Ah, thank you, <name>. The sketch is painful now, but I will keep it close as a reminder of what the enemies of Gondor will not hesitate to take from us. It lifts my spirits to see the construction effort! But I wish it were not necessary.
'As we make our way north through Dor-en-Ernil to my hometown of Ethring, let us face whatever foes we encounter with courage and strength, for the King and for Gondor.'

Objective 8

'And who is this stranger? [Elf or High Elf:] You are an Elf, or I'm a goblin. [Dwarf or Stout-axe Dwarf] We don't care much for dwarves in these lands. [else:] You have the look of an Elf-friend, and that is not a popular thing to resemble in these days.'
