Rothgar is concerned about the ominous words you heard from the Dourhand burglar and feels Mathi Stouthand, Lord of Gondamon, should be told that trouble is brewing.
'Mathi Stouthand is the Lord of Gondamon and must be given warning that the goblins and the Dourhands are up to something. War could be brewing, and the forces of Gondamon will need to be prepared!
'Follow the road east to the fortress. I am sure you will find Mathi on the upper levels!'1/1

'You could not have arrived with this news at a better time, Player. An Elf-prince has gone missing, and the Elves are convinced that we abducted him and refuse to believe otherwise! We have learned where their prince is being held... an encampment of Dourhands to the north-east.
'Your information tells us a great deal about his fate, and I hope it is enough. The Elves have sent an emissary to Gondamon, and she insists that we rescue this Avorthal as a sign of our goodwill. A sign of our goodwill! As if the Longbeards need to prove anything!
'I have always considered myself an even-tempered dwarf, but this emissary has gone too far. We need someone who is neither dwarf nor Elf to organize this rescue. I do not want to be responsible for an outbreak of war in the Blue Mountains.'1/1
