Bestowal dialogue

'You know, I haven't seen my nephew Benegar since he left that bag of turtles in my shed. I hope the boy has not gotten himself into some turtle-related mischief!

'Return that bag of turtles to Sig Mandrake at his shop in Bree and see if he has heard any more news of my nephew.'

Background

Grobo Dogwort wants you to return the turtles to Sig Mandrake and ask the shop-keeper if he has seen Grobo's nephew Benegar Longbottom.

Objective 1

Sig Mandrake is in his shop east of the Mud-gate, in the village of Bree, located in the southwestern section of the town.

Grobo Dogwort wants you to bring the bag of turtles to Sig Mandrake and to ask the shop-keeper for any news of Grobo's nephew.

Grobo Dogwort: 'Bring this bag of turtles to Sig Mandrake at this shop in the southwestern section of Bree, <name>. I'm terrified that they might escape again!
'And be sure to ask him if he's seen my nephew Benegar anywhere about.'
Sig Mandrake: 'Ah, you have brought another bag of turtles. Good, good. This is the one Benegar Longbottom set aside for me, is it? I would say I almost have enough tiny turtles to begin making the turtle soup. Not just yet, but very soon, I would say.
'I did see the boy not long ago. He said he found a place where he's sure to catch twice the turtles anyone else has caught and ran off to prove it. I told him there were no turtles to be found at the place he described, as I have only ever seen frogs there, but he insisted.
'If you are looking for him, you can see for yourself, I suppose. He was going to an island in the middle of one of the Everclear Lakes, north-west of Bree.'

Objective 2

Benegar Longbottom went to an island in the Everclear Lakes, north-west of Bree, to look for turtles to provide Sig Mandrake.

You have learned where Benegar Longbottom went and should look for him to make sure he is safe.

Sig Mandrake: 'The boy said he was going to look for turtles on an island in the middle of the Everclear Lakes, north-west of Bree. I told him you only ever see frogs on that island, but he didn't believe me and said he would bring back twice the turtles of any single person. I don't believe him, but he certainly seemed confident.'
Benegar Longbottom: 'Oh dear...it seems that I was mistaken. There are no turtles here. There is something worse!'
He looks around conspiratorially, and then whispers a single word.
'Murder!'
