The goblin Pampraush let slip the knowledge that Avorthal was not slain, but handed over to wicked dwarves. Cardavor was further embittered by this news and is prepared to declare open war against the dwarves of Ered Luin to reclaim his son.
'There is little time to spare, Player! The wretched dwarves may not keep Avorthal alive for long. Go to Master Dorongúr at Duillond, to the north, and tell him that he must assemble a force of Elves to move against the dwarves at once!

'Your news is troubling, Player. For dwarves to work peacefully with goblins is unusual enough, but to conspire in the abduction of an Elf-prince seems foolhardy, even for them.
'I will not call our warriors to arms just yet. Cardavor is full of anger, which is to be expected, but as Master of Duillond it is my duty to exercise restraint.
'If the dwarves have indeed taken Avorthal, we will fall upon them with such fury that the mountains shall shake at our passing; but this could also be a trick of the goblins. They would have much to gain from a war between Elves and dwarves.'0/1
