General QuestLindir asks that Bilbo come up with a riddle to stump you this time.
STEPS:
1) Talk to Bilbo Baggins. He tells you:
"A long beard I have of bristly hair, but no chin or cheek on which to bear. Many hands hold me, with ne'er a caress, Yet I'm e'er the first to clean up a mess."
2) Find the item in Rivendell that answers the riddle and bring it back to Bilbo. I bet it's a broom. I know all about messes, what with two young boys at home. Anyway, select "Continue Quest", and go look for the item. We had good luck at the stables before, so let's head there again. Sure enough, there is a Besom-broom waiting for you to pick it up in the corner of one of the stables (29.3s, 6.8w).
3) After you select "Finish Now", you get XP, and you will now be able to take the next quest, The Riddle-Finder.
