Strewn throughout the lore you discovered in previous efforts for Tobold Leafcutter were stories of a great Cardolan treasure. He believes that two brothers, warriors of Arnor, fought and recovered the treasure and brought it to the Northern Barrow.
'Ah, you found something! Many of the pages are missing, but perhaps I can glean something from those which remain.
'Ah! This is almost too terrible to read. The author, a Man of Cardolan, tells how those few of Cardolan who remained died in a Great Plague, borne along by dark clouds from the East. Soon after, fell spirits swept down from the North. The man writes of tormenting dreams that followed, dreams of a place called Angmar. Soon after, the Dead walked the land once more. In the last entry, the man writes that he fears that he too will succumb to the Plague, but that his body will never know rest.
'How I wish I had remained ignorant of those cursed lands, yet now I find I must know more. If you ever find more pages of this journal, bring them to me. Perhaps in this knowledge, a defence against these fell spirits can be learned.'1/1
