Bestowal Dialogue
'Just a few days ago, the City Watch apprehended a man lurking outside the city. He was dressed as one of the Corsairs of Umbar and made no apology for it, but when he named you as a friend the Watch was forced to let him go. I might have commanded otherwise, but the guards had to make a decision and they made it. Holding prisoner a friend of the hero <name>... they did not wish to make a mistake such as that.
'I have had them keep a wary eye on this man ever since, just to ensure he causes no disturbance in Dol Amroth, but perhaps it would be best if you speak to him and learn his intentions here. Find Beriaudur, the leader of the Watch, and ask him for the latest report on this Jajax's whereabouts and behaviour. Beriaudur will be south-east of the Palace of the Swan, at the bottom of the steps.'
Background
Prince Imrahil wants you to keep an eye on an apparent troublemaker who named you a friend, ensuring he causes no trouble for the city.
Objective 1
Beriaudur, leader of the city's guard, can be found south-east of the Palace of the Swan, in Dol Amroth, King's Gondor.
- Prince Imrahil: 'I have had them keep a wary eye on this man ever since, just to ensure he causes no disturbance in Dol Amroth, but perhaps it would be best if you speak to him and learn his intentions here. Find Beriaudur, the leader of the Watch, and ask him for the latest report on this Jajax's whereabouts and behaviour. Beriaudur will be south-east of the Palace of the Swan, by the bottom of the steps.'
- Beriaudur: 'You have just missed the report from one of my guards concerning this man! If you hurry, you might catch up to the pair of them. Look for Tholion to the east and beyond the market stalls, where he said this Jajax lingered.'
Objective 2
- Find the guard keeping an eye on Jajax to the east, beyond the market stalls
A guard keeping watch on Jajax's movements in Dol Amroth is to the east, beyond the market stalls.
- Beriaudur: 'You have just missed the report from one of my guards concerning this man! If you hurry, you might catch up to the pair of them. Look for Tholion to the east beyond the market stalls, where he said this Jajax lingered.'
- The guard looks around sheepishly
Objective 3
- Talk to Tholion by the market stalls
The guard Tholion is distressed about something.
- Tholion: 'He was right here! I don't know how he gave me the slip!
- 'What if you check in the courtyard to the north? Perhaps Lindor saw which way he went? Captain Beriaudur is not going to be happy about this...'
Objective 4
- Seek Jajax in the vicinity of Lindor in the courtyard to the north
Tholion sent you to check with Lindor, another of his company, in the courtyard to the north.
- Tholion: 'What if you check in the courtyard to the north? Perhaps Lindor saw which way he went? Captain Beriaudur is not going to be happy about this...'
- Lindor: 'Nothing!'
- There is no sign of Jajax here either
Objective 5
- Talk to Lindor in the courtyard
Lindor seems to have also misplaced Jajax.
- Lindor: 'I am at a loss. We watched this fellow from a goodly distance for the better part of three hours, and he made no suspicious movements or gave any sign that he knew he was observed. And then in a snap he just vanished! Are we certain he is a reformed Corsair, and not some irksome water spirit instead?'
- Knowing what you know of Jajax, you hesitate to describe him as "reformed." Instead you commiserate with Lindor about having lost him.
- 'Aye. It is to be hoped Captain Beriaudur will not be too cross with us. I will go to him now with the hope... no, the certainty... that we will find this Jajax again before he causes any serious trouble.'
- On the edge of hearing, you catch a brief gull-call from the street to the east
Objective 6
- Follow the sound of the unusual gull-call down the street to the east
The gull-call you heard came from the street to the east and seemed rather out-of-place.
- Lindor: 'It is to be hoped Captain Beriaudur will not be too cross with us. I will go to him now with the hope... no, the certainty... that we will find this Jajax again before he causes any serious trouble.'
- The strange gull-call came from somewhere hereabout
Objective 7
- Follow the sound of the unusual gull-call down the street to the east
The gull-call you heard came from this tree-shaded street and seemed quite out-of-place.
- The Corsair Jajax steps from the shadows, grinning widely
Objective 8
- Talk to Jajax in the tree-shaded street in Dol Amroth, King's Gondor
Jajax stands in a tree-shaded street in Dol Amroth, King's Gondor.
- Jajax: 'Those guards are fortunate I chose to do no more than merely embarrass them... I could have slain them very easily, if I wanted. But you are a friend, so they can live for today.
- 'To think you believed our paths would never cross again, <name>. It seems you have the pleasure of entering my story at least once more!'
