- I have found Captain Faramir in Osgiliath. He has set up a defensive position in a ruined house while he plans how best to handle his grave situation. He asked me to speak with one of his men downstairs in the basement of the house to get a better idea of the seriousness of the situation.
- I spoke with the brick layer in the basement of the house as Faramir requested. He explained that the orcs were tunneling under the river and were on course to break through in the basement of the house. He said he required more bricks and mortar but I don't know how long any reinforcement will hold. I should report back to Faramir right away.
- Faramir explained that reinforcing their position would only slow the orcs for a short while. He said the only way to really set them back long enough to get more soldiers to retake the city would be to destroy the tunnel the orcs are digging. He told me the orcs have a command post set up in the courthouse building on the other side of the river. I should go there and do whatever I can to sabotage their tunnel.
- I was able to find and destroy two stone pillars supporting the end of the tunnel the orcs were digging. I barely escaped the resulting collapse with my life. I should report back to Captain Faramir immediately.
- I gave my report to Faramir explaining how the tunnel has been destroyed. He thanked me and said the orcs would be set back many days. He recommended I report back to Lord Denethor who would reward me for my efforts.
- For a brief moment I could see love and happiness in the eyes of old Lord Denethor when he heard his son was alive and well...it quicky changed to contempt for me. He seemed angered that Osgiliath is not once again firmly under his control, but regardless he awarded me the key to the city. He said it would allow me to complete my mission though I do not know what more I could do. Anyway this key should be useful in passing through the city.
Rewards

- After speaking with the Librarian again she discovered some intersting information. She said the book explained that the lost Palantir of Osgiliath had been recovered by Mordor and that it needed to be reclaimed. She asked me to go into Mordor and recover this thing though she was not entirely sure where to look. To me this sounds like madness but she insisted I must try, explaining that it would be at the top of a tower in Mordor but definately not Barad-Dur or Minas Morgul. This should be interesting...I suppose Cirith Ungol is as good a place to begin as any.
- At last I have reached the top of Cirith Ungol tower. I have come against my better judgement but it appears the risk has paid off...the Palantir is here. I will take it back to the Librarian so we can attempt to figure out what to do with it. It seems incredibly powerful but is almost definately just as dangerous. I had better not fool around with it.
- After returning to the Librarian with the Palantir she explained that it must be put somewhere safe out of the reach of Mordor's forces or the temptation of men until a time when it can be safely used again. She requested I use a magical key she gave me to breach a seal of magic to enter the tower atop the courthouse in Osgiliath. She said that is where it belonged and that is where it should stay. She was also very clear that she did not want me to mention any of this to Denethor...something about corruption?
- When I explained the business of the Palantir and the Librarian in the Keep to Denethor he seemed very eager to know more. He said if I could recover the Palantir then perhaps it could be used as a weapon against Sauron, to see into his mind. Although that doesn't sound like a very smart idea to me...he did offer great reward if I bring the Palantir to him...it is tempting.
- I have given the Palantir to Denethor and in return he has offered me a key. He claims this key will gain me entrance to the Path of Kings, the tombs of all the dead kings of Gondor. The wealth stored in such a place must be vast indeed.
- I have decided to return the Palantir to its rightful place atop the tower in Osgiliath. It will be safe here from those who would use it for evil. I should return to the Librarian and tell her it is finally done. She did mention something about a reward as well.
- I returned to inform the Librarian that the task is done and the Palantir is safe. She thanked me and as a reward offered me a key. She explained that this key would grant me access to the Path of Kings in Minas Tirith, saying it was a tomb of the past kings of Gondor and that great knowledge is stored there that I may learn from.
- I have found an interesting book in a secret room in the courthouse of Osgiliath. Perhaps the librarian in the High Keep of Minas Tirith knows something about this.
