I was pondering the Rangers recently, and was considering who was in charge/how the Rangers were organised, and came across the three members of the Dunedain that can be found in Mirkwood - Prestadir, Idhrenfair and Himienor.

My question for MoL is this - what are these three Dunedain doing with the Golden Host? The quest text alludes to it a little, but it does seem a little out of place - why were they that far east in the first place?
