The slaves of Carn Dûm were set free, but Éa, a woman of the Hillmen dwelling at Tármunn Súrsa, is still missing her husband.
'My husband remains in Carn Dûm. I know you have already done so much, but please...find it in your heart to help me once more.

'Erscin is strong of back and force of will. I cannot imagine that he fell to the Orcs, though perhaps he tried to escape and was killed. I cannot bear to imagine such things.

'If he lives, I fear he will not live long. I am sure that the Evil Ones will punish any slaves that remained behind. You must return to Carn Dûm and find him!'
