'Ost Ringdyr is a thorn, Darkarow. A place we can penetrate and nearly destroy, but one we cannot hold for any true time. Like us, the enemy is entrenched deeply at their camp of Glân Vraig, and Ost Ringdyr is simply too close to hold the keep.

'We can however slaughter their numbers and kill the master of the keep. This is what I ask of you, Uruk: go to Ost Ringdyr and kill the lord who commands the enemy there. Do this and you will earn favour with Angmar and Lugbúrz.'

Attempts to weaken the enemy forces are proving fruitful, and the keep east of Tirith Rhaw, where the Elf Captain-General Lainedhel rules, is the target of assault. You are charged with organizing a war-band to assault Ost Ringdyr in an effort to slaughter the lord of the keep.
