Where are the others?
Legolas: Aragorn has become seperated by a cave-in, and
Fimli has gone in search of Balin's Tomb.

You start off in front of a closed door. In order to progress you need to hit two switches, but one doesn't appear until the other one is hit. First, start going to the right, defeating all of the enemies that you find. If you follow the map you should be able to find and hit the lever. Return to the starting location. Next you want to go left, and you should be able to find the switch inside of a room. Again return to the starting location. Now you can go down the stairs directly in front of your starting location. You will be in a huge room with several pillars and many enemies and breakable containers. Two hero creatures will also be in this area. Continue in the same direction and down more stairs. You will be in a room with two more hero creatures. There are two stairs, one (to the left) has nothing, while the other thinner one leads up to a Shrine. To progress, you have to take the path in betwwen two of the stairs to an open trapdoor, which will take you to a lower floor. On the lower floor, you should generally move toward the right and you will eventually reach the exit.
