Letter From Lady Galadriel



My friend Andarne,

A time long prepared-for approaches, and I have seen your part in it. My husband Celeborn has called for a great company, the Golden Host of Lórien, to cross the river Anduin and bring battle to the fortress of Dol Guldur. It stands atop a stony height in the depths of Mirkwood, and behind its walls great evil is brewing.

Come to our lands, and prepare to fight this growing shadow! Speak to Haldir of Lórien on his flet just outside the Golden Wood, or to the boat-master Calengoth, standing vigil on the south-eastern docks of Lothlórien, on the Great River itself.

We have need of great adventurers such as you, my friend. Please come to Lothlórien, from there to depart for Mirkwood!

If you have not already proven yourself to the march-wardens of my land, do so before crossing the bounds! Assist the Elves on Talan Haldir and at Echad Andestel, outside the borders of my land. If you have already done so, you will have no trouble crossing into Lothlórien, and can join the Golden Host at once.

Lady Galadriel.
