As if legions of orcs and easterlings at the very steps of Erebor were not enough we now have received reports that a pack of fell wolves has planted itself on the Trade Route between Mirkwood and the Lonely Mountain. No doubt this will further challenge any reinforcements that may come to aid the King and the Ereborian regiments.

The Durin's Folk Trade Company has already advised any merchants to take the untrodden path North of the main road, in the hope of circumventing this additional danger. Yet, considering the approaching siege an approach to Erebor without heavily armed guards is strongly unadvised. In addition all companies are advised to halt their trade for the time being and seek sheltered lodgings.
