'Who are you? I have not seen you before. What are you doing in Snowbourn?'
You ask him why Fastred has not moved his people across the Entwash where they can be better-protected.
'The Reeve has his own opinion on this, whatever the Third Marshal thinks. Ah, Éomer is a long way from here. He does not know what is really going on in the Sutcrofts. The women and the children could be moved, certainly, but Éomer wanted everyone to depart, even the warriors! These are their lands! Better to stay and die on your own land than to live at the say-so of another man's plot!
'Snowbourn will not retreat, though it be burned to the ground. Its people will defend it to the last!'1/1

'That is what I suspected, Player. I will go to speak with Reeve Fastred, but he may need more evidence to be convinced of the danger his people face.
'Ride onto the plains of the Sutcrofts and defeat Mordor corruptors and Warg riders, seizing their implements of destruction: spears and fire-pots. Bring them back to me and I will show this evidence to the Reeve. If that does not change his mind, we may need to try something else.'1/1
