Guide to Bree-Town Quests
By Darkgolem
Bree-Town is the first major city many players will see after getting
past their original low level quests. The book 1 epic quests are
found here, at the famous Prancing Pony. However, aside from the
setting so familiar to readers of J.R.R. Tolkien, and the quests
centered around the characters from his stories, there are many
quests found here which relate to other parts of Bree-Land.
Bree-Town is full of adventures appropriate for adventurers in their
high teens and low twenties in level. Many have to do with the
Barrow
Downs, in general, and some have to do with the Great Barrow in
specific, an instanced area which is full of horrible undead and
similar monsters. There are also some quests relating to the
bandits found in the north of town, including one which leads to a long
chain of events aimed at preventing an alliance between the southern
bandits found in the region and a tribe of orcs in northern Bree-Land.

follow it until you reach the Forsaken Inn. It's a bit of a hike)

Naerandir (Prancing Pony)
An Ancient Story of Evil
Bree
Naerandir has told you he knows
the story of the Great Barrow, but that the reality of the place as it
exists now must be masked beneath the splendor of legend, lest
cautious fear grows into terror.
Find the Left Half of the Key
Find the Right Half of the Key
The Barrow-downs are south through the gate by the stables and south of
Bree. The Great Barrow is at the heart of the Barrow-downs. The first
key fragment is guarded by two wights in the Great Barrow maze. The
second key fragment is held by a Gaunt-lord elsewhere in the Great
Barrow. Naerandir is outside the Prancing Pony.
Naerandir has asked you to find two fragments of a key that opens the
way into the deepest halls of the Great Barrow from a pair of wights
and a creature called a gaunt-man. He recommended taking friends.
(Author's note: The Great
Barrow is found at 33.8S, 55.8W in
Bree-land. You have to find two different boss fights to get the
keys, expect a lot of fighting, and make sure to take a 20+ level
fellowship that is well balanced.)

Bruner Stoutthrush (Combe Gate)
Family Treasures
Bree
Bruner Stoutthrush, a
disreputable seeming gentleman from Bree, has decided to do a good deed
for the refugees from the Blackwold attacks.
Collect Stolen Family Heirlooms
(5)
The brigands can be found in a large camp in the Yellow Tree Ruins,
south of Staddle; but it may be that some others in the Chetwood also
carry stolen items.
Whether as an act of beneficence or complete self-interest, Stoutthrush
has asked you to collect stolen heirlooms from the brigands and bring
them to him at Bree's Combe-gate.

Mayor Graeme Tenderlarch (Bree

Haunted Alley
Bree
The Mayor of Bree received
reports of a ghost in an alley, but none of the constables will
investigate the rumour.
1. Investigate a Ghost in Bree
The ruins the Mayor spoke of are in an alley not far from the
South-gate, off to the right.
Mayor Tenderlarch has asked you to investigate the rumours of a haunted
alley and put the concerns of the Bree constables to rest. He has asked
you to visit the alley by night, as that is the only time the ghost has
been reported.
The shade is at
31.9S, 51.1W and only seen at
night-time.
2. Find the Lost Ring
The ring is hidden at a barracks gate, but there are no barracks in
Bree. The shade also mentioned a black rock, however.
Perhaps if you locate this lost ring the shade spoke of, it can
rest.

Calming the Wake
Bree
There are many rumours that
mysterious Black Riders ride the land and behind them, ancient evils
are stirred. Chief Watcher Grimbriar is worried that tales of walking
dead in the Barrow-downs will eventually mean doom for Bree.
Defeat Wights in the Barrow
Downs (12)
The north entrance to the Barrow-downs lies west of Bree, south of the
Great East Road.
To protect Bree, Chief Watcher Grimbriar has asked you to go to the

Kenton Thistleway
Getting the Blade Back (Requires
a Dwarf made Blade)
Bree
:Threatened by Nate, a lackey of
a brigand named Blake, that he must provide him a sword or his family
would be harmed, Kenton Thistleway stole Lofar's blade.
Find Nate
Nate may be found near the boar-dens in the valley below the abandoned
graveyard, north of Bree.
Kenton told you that Nate said he was going to test the sword on some
boars who roam near the abandoned graveyard north of Bree. If you can
find Nate there, perhaps you can get Lofar's sword back.
(Author's note: Nate is found
dead at 27.3S, 52.5W almost
directly north of the north gate, at the bottom of a slope.)
2. Bring the Broken Hilt to Lofar Ironbank: Lofar Ironband can
be found in the courtyard of the Stone-quarter in Bree, along the road
south-east of the West-gate.
You found Nate dead and Lofar's sword broken. Now Kenton Thistleway is

Flint Oakhewer lives on the north-east corner of this street. Boars can

Bring the Brigands Medallion to
Saeradan
Saeradan has a cabin in the Bree-fields, north of Bree and a little
east.
Grimbriar does not trust the Rangers, but wonders if Saeradan might not
know a little more about the brigands. He has suggested that you take
the medallion to the Ranger and learn what he has to say about it.
2. Defeat one of the Southern Lieutenants or Southern Leaders located
in the Bree-fields and search his remains. There is a small band of
brigands to the south-west of Saeradan's cabin, on Thornley's land.
Defeat a Southern Leader or Southern Lieutenant and Search Him for Clues
Grimbriar asked you take the medallion you found to the Ranger
Saeradan, but Saeradan proved unable to help you. He did suggest,
however, that the brigand-captains may carry evidence that will
illuminate the meaning of the medallion.
(Author's note: A lieutenant
can be found at the highest hill in the
palisade at 27.1S, 56.1W.)

Addie Wheatley (Beggar's Alley)
Find Malin (requires Addie's
Missing Sons)
Bree
Your search for the missing sons
found the remains of Amlach Wheatley
clutching his brother's journal. The last cryptic entries seem to
reveal that Amlach heard fell voices coming from the southern reaches
of the Barrow-downs.
The journal you found seemed to
indicate that Malin was taken to the southern Barrow-downs to a barrow
overlooking an evil mire. Hopefully you will find him there, before
whatever killed Amlach does the same to him!
(Author's note: Malin is at the
top of an outcropping at a barrow,
located at 35.3S, 55.5W)

In the lore fragments you
brought him earlier, Newbold Leafcutter has discovered that the men of
Cardolan made a final stand at a fortress in the south of the
Barrow-downs.
Search the Ruins for an Ancient
Chest
You may find a chest in the ruins of Ost Gorthad in the south
Barrow-downs. Newbold Leafcutter waits for you beyond the High Bridge
at the southern end of the Upper Way in Bree.
Newbold Leafcutter has asked you to search the ruins of Ost Gorthad for
an ancient chest. He hopes that lore from the Men of Cardolan may have
survived the long years since the Great Plague in such a chest. If you
find such lore, you should bring it to Newbold.
(Author's note: The chest is
found at 32.1S, 55.1W among the ruins of
Ost Gorthad, at the far west side of the ruins in the rear. There
is platform, and when the chest is opened many wraiths appear,
bring friends, and have a plan.)
