'I cannot give you better guidance than to say seek out Aughaire. But for Golodir's company, my kindred have not passed north beyond Ram Dúath.'1/1

'Who are you? Nay, it matters not... all that matters is that you have come. Matters are grave, and we have need of any assistance we can muster. These good people are beset on all sides by the tyrants of Angmar, who now gather a mighty army to march south and crush the Elves and Gondor between their hammer and the anvil of Mordor. Time grows short, and we must act quickly if we are to hinder the Shadow of Angmar.
'Perhaps I should tell you somewhat of our long story. When we first came unto Aughaire, the Hillmen were suspicious of us, but not overtly hostile. Golodir quickly earned their respect, for he was a great captain among us and was able to inspire the heart. We learned that the Hillmen were under the oppression of a remnant of Angmar that had returned to Carn Dûm from over the Misty Mountains... but worse, a sorcerer much likened to the Witch-king of old had also come to the evil city.
'The Hillmen called this sorcerer \qThe False King\q, for they knew well that the Witch-king himself could never return to Angmar. Golodir determined that this Steward of Angmar had to be stopped before he could gather strength in the North. He gathered together as many of the Hillmen as would follow him and journeyed east with the rest of our companions, believing that Angmar was not yet strong enough to withstand a united front. I was left behind to take word to Esteldín in the event the expedition failed... which it did. Do you wish to hear more?'1/1
