They were destroyed in the wars between Angmar and Arthedain 15 centuries ago. The 3rd is the ancient capitol of Rhudaur. Each of these sites was built by the followers of Elendil soon after he arrived on these shores and hide ancient tombs. It must be known if they were disturbed as well." He marks the locations on the map <by the way, I will find or make a better map>. One of the towers lies roughly in the middle of the hills of the Trollshaws about 75 miles from the Last Bridge while the other tower and the old capitol are both on the eastern bank of the Hoarwell. The tower is about 50 miles north of the road and the other site roughly 50 miles further up the river.He then notices that Strabo is trying to see the map and looks around for a moment. Finding a chunk of rubble of the right size he places it next to the table and says with a smile, "my apologies, Mr. Underhill, I hope this will be acceptable as a step."He turns back to the map and gazes at it again, then says, "depending on what you find in the ruins or near Mt. Gram, you may also need to enter the bounds of old Angmar. It is still a fell place even though the Witch King was defeated and fled a thousand years ago," he glances at Sirandir, "but strange rumors tell of a new presence there trying to rebuild parts of Carn Dum. I cannot council you to venture there or stay away. I leave it to your judgment based on what you find in your travels, but, if the servants of Sauron are rebuilding in Angmar, Elrond must be told without delay."He stops and looks about, "Well, there is the quest put before you. What questions do you have of me? If you have none, we should set a watch and get what rest we may. We must be away at dawn. You on your quest and I on mine."</blockquote>
