'I must follow Halbarad's orders, but I will not leave until I have some answers! After the disaster of the Forsaken Road, I strode through the Coomb and collected the ingredients for the strange-smelling brew: Kibil-luwz, Nijam-mujdu, and Hulwul-hurz. Frithgeir did not want to, but at the end I gave him no choice, and he has brewed the drink and given it to Nár.
'Hurry! Go now to Nár and ask him, once again, how he knows of the Oath-breakers! Ask him how he knows the words of Elrond concerning the Paths of the Dead! Ask him why my friends are dead!
'Go, Player! We will leave Zudrugund, but first I want to know why all of this had to happen!'1/1

The distant expression that Nár usually wears has been replaced with a shrewd glare. He is still under the effect of the strange-smelling brew, but that clarity may not last long.1/1

'I cannot believe this! The traitor Saruman has been influencing our errand without our knowledge, and we have played right into his hands!
'This stage of our journey, this investigation into the mystery posed by Nár, is over. Halbarad is right: the next stage of our journey will take us south into Dunland, likely towards war and danger, right beneath the shadow of our enemy, but it does not matter. What matters is that we journey. For good or ill, the Grey Company will continue on its road.
'This detour means our enemy knows we are coming. We must hope he does not know why, but if he does, perhaps that knowledge will cause him to make a mistake, to make some error he will regret.
'Our friends have perished. Our hope for the future must not die with them. The Grey Company will ride again, and soon. You will come with us, if you still wish to. I would not blame you for changing your mind, for the road will be hard.'1/1
