that quest is not your ranger quest but it should get you the area on the map which will probably be enough if you go there and talk to the people (it would be worth exploring the government district thoroughly for Delon the messenger though in case some critical game variable gets changed after you talk to him)

Delon is not important as long as you get to the Umar Hills. The quest starts when you go there for the first time.
Delon should walk around somewhere in the middle of the Govt. district next to the fountain. If you are a ranger Gus (Gaylan's little boy) should have take you there.
However he is just there to give you the location on your world map and you can do without him once you get a bit deeper into the Valgyar-quest you'll find out where the Umar Hills are.

P.S.: The German localisation ( ist das tatsächlich das englische Wort für Lokalisierung?) is one of the best if you compare them to other Computer Games. However I prefer the English because it gives me that extra fantasy feeling which I know from reading the LotR and several other books. I can't even read two or three sentences of Tolkien in translation

Okay okay i read the LotR in - first - the englisch versions, and later on both german versions original und new translation.
In my opinion the original translation is quiet near the english one, but the new translation is an insult for every fan (Nein, nicht Ventilator!).

Sam calls Frodo "Chef" or "Boss" something like "boss" or "dude". In one situation his feelings are discriped somewhat like "he felt like being hit form a locomotive". ??? I ask myself why the hell they walked the whole way, and didn´t took the train "Bree - Minas Morgul" ?

Well the new translation is obviously a disgrace: "Ey, Scheffe ganz schön hart der Weg. Ham wir noch Kippen übrig?"
But I also dislike the old one. It's a great translation but I just LOVE that fantasy English. That supposed to be like in the middle-ages English. And no German translation can give me that feeling.

He is in the slums. Hit "M" on your keyboard to bring up the map and find Jansen home.
