Bestowal Dialogue:
'I am worried for my friend, Stip, but I fear there is not much that can be done for him. He is no Elf, neither is he Man, dwarf, nor hobbit. The friend I speak of is Arifael, and he is a giant. Gailthin was ever friendly with the giants, and she often took me with her to visit Arifael.
'Whether it was his kindness to the Elves or some other reason, the rest of his kin were displeased with Arifael, and he sought seclusion. He found shelter in a vale to the south across the High Moor, on the slopes of Amon Nendir, but scouts report hostile giants in the area, and I fear for my old friend's safety. Please seek him out and make sure that he is well!
'The vale is very dangerous, and if the wrong sort of giants are seeking to cause trouble for Arifael, you will wish you had brought allies with you.'
