Apparently much hope lies heavily on Erkenbrand and the lords of the Westfold -- Grimbold, Elfhelm, and Dúnhere. The Hornburg needs strong arms to defend it, but Gandalf may need help finding Erkenbrand.
'If you wish to help the Westfold and Rohan, think to helping yourself. Seek shelter in the Hornburg, and defend it with us! Help us ready for battle.
'If reports hold true, it is folly to roam the plains right now. Yes, we need Erkenbrand...but can he get here in time, if he even lives?'
You thank Éomer for his advice, but you wonder what Gandalf would have you do.0/1

'I cannot advise you easily, Player. I truly worry that those of us who ride on to the Hornburg will not live to see the morning -- but I believe that crossing the plains of the Westfold before Saruman's army will mean certain death.
'Yet the hope lies in Gandalf. For myself, I will stay and defend Théoden and Rohan with my life, for Rohan has ever been an ally to my people.
'I hope that Gandalf can find Erkenbrand in time.'0/1
3 Speak toKing Théoden (Show dialog)
'So you have decided to part ways here, Player? I pray for your safe return, and I hope that there is still time to draw swords with you at the Hornburg.
'Good luck with your search for Erkenbrand. Be careful -- the Westfold is not what it once was. The enemy has claimed this land.
'The battle at the Hornburg will decide the fate of Rohan....'0/1
