'I have lost everything but my daughter, and I want to make sure she is happy and being treated well. I do not trust Athelward, Reeve or not! Go to Cliving and ensure that Siflád is not being mistreated!'1/1

2 Speak toAthelward (Show dialog)
'Welcome to Cliving, friends from afar! I am Athelward, Reeve of the Norcrofts and Thane of Cliving. My house and hospitality is yours while you stay.'
Athelward listens as you relate the reason for your visit, and a cloud crosses his face.
'Oh, Mildrith. What happened to her should not have happened to any lady of Rohan. Losing first her husband, and then her son... I should have been more understanding of the boy's youthful boldness, but he called my honour into question. The sword-trial is the customary means of resolving such disputes. I did not know his wound would fester in such a way. I would have it back, if I could. Taking young Siflád as my ward seemed the kindest thing to do, but I can understand a mother's grief may make it seem otherwise.
'I will answer any questions of yours, and you are of course free to see Siflád. If it is not too much trouble, could I ask you to help Cuthred, the captain of my guard, with his duties after you have spoken with Siflád?'1/1
3 Speak toSiflád (Show dialog)
'I saw you coming to Cliving from afar, and I wondered what your story might be. And now you have come to tell it to me! How wonderful!'
You tell Siflád that you have come from her mother in Elthengels, and that Mildrith worries about her.
'My poor mother. I miss her. Some days I miss her terribly, but knowing that she is still at home eases that ache somewhat. Worse are the days when I miss my father and my brother, for they are never coming home.
'But I am as happy at Cliving as I can be. The Reeve is kind to me, if distant. I think he blames himself for all the grief my family has endured, and wants to make amends for it. I am treated well. Look at the view from the walls! There is just so much more going on here than at Elthengels!
'Yes, I am happy here. I hope my mother is not upset by that, but it is the truth. But tell her I miss her.'1/1
4 Speak toCuthred (Show dialog)
'The Reeve sent you to me to help with our problems? Good! We can refuse no offers of help. Cliving has been less affected than some other towns in this riding, but still there are Orcs about and we need to deal with them if we are to keep our people safe.'1/1
