Story
'We've but one last hope for learning both what became of the Men of Cardolan and how the Barrow-downs became home to such fell creatures. Unfortunately, the answer lies in the Downs.
'The lore fragments you brought me mention a fortress named Ost Gorthad. The Men of Cardolan took many of those who fell sick to the Plague there. The ruins of that fortress still stand today and if we are fortunate, some lore from those times may be preserved in those ruins!
'If you are willing, return to the Barrow-downs and make your way to the ruins of Ost Gorthad in the south. There, search for an ancient chest, where parchments or scrolls might have survived all these long years.'
