align="left">Gramdrim and I have cleared twisted
woods of Glad Ereg and now turn south toward Hollin. With the
wood trolls decimated by myself and my short-but-worthy companion's
efforts, it will be a long time before they threaten my kinsman in fair
Gwingris. We have many dangers ahead, however. We continue
in our aim to protect those who even now head further into danger much
greater than I or Gramdrim face.
Here in High Hollin, we seek another
group of elves from Rivendell, housed in another ruin of the folk who
onced lived here, the ruin known as Echad Eregion. A rider to
Gwingris told us of half orcs in nearby ruins of Pembar and Barad
Morlas. Even if the presence of these folk did not pose a greater
danger to the travellers who I will not name, I would see the the end
of the foul melding of Yrch and Adan from these quiet lands.
style="font-style: italic;">
I note a change in Gramdrim as we
head closer to the mountains. The red peaks of these "teeth" of
the Misty Mountains hold no appeal for me, but I fear that Gramdrim is
thinking less of those peaks, and more of the questionable glories of
the ancient dwarf halls beneath. I worry what the gleam in his
eye I notice bodes for our travels.
Echad Eregion is found in the heart of Eregion, in the land known as
High Hollin. Ruins nearby are full of the half orcs of Saruman,
and wild beasts are in the lands about. Tasked with covering the
tracks of the fellowship of the nine who head south on their task,
members of the free people can find many things to do in this land at
risk from Saruman's White Hand.
The quests here are mainly soloable, but there are several signature
enemies that must be defeated in some of them, so make sure you have
stocked up on food, drink and healing potions. Keep an eye out of
the half orcs you need for Deeds of Eregion, and the elven lore found
here. A few of the quests here are part of completing the half
orc captain deed, so make sure to pay attention to those.

by Lengliel's scouts are quite disturbing.
