You know Théodred did not die at this place, but the sight of the fallen Prince still fills you with regret and with worry for the future of his kingdom.
The dream holds you in its grip, and refuses to let you go.1/1
3 Speak to(Show dialog)
Candaith looks around at the corpse-strewn camp.
'Your journey must have been an arduous one, Player, if this is the tapestry of your dreaming! May you find restful sleep at the end of your road, my friend, for I fear you will have little of that for a while.
'Walk with me a ways, Player. There are some things we need to discuss.'1/1
4 Speak to(Show dialog)
'Do not lose sight of who you are, my friend, and do not despair. I would give my life a thousand times to be even the smallest help to Aragorn, my chieftain. That is what it means to be one of the Dúnedain.
'It was no different for these men of Rohan, or for their Prince. They strove to protect their people, and would do so again if given the opportunity. Weep for the need of it, but do not mourn their choice. I know they must be content.
'Someone comes. Let us meet him at the gate, and keep him from further disturbing your rest!'1/1
5 Speak to(Show dialog)
'He is your own foe to face, Player. I will not be able to help you stand against him, and you will be on your own. Let the knowledge that you have already proven the stronger lighten your heart and bring you courage!'1/1

'Your dreaming mind roams far afield, Player. Asleep, you are much like a Ranger. I hope you do not mind my saying so.'
Candaith chuckles, but the pleasant familiarity of the sound rings hollowly in the still air of the dream, and is soon gone.
'Our friends have their own road now, Player. May they reach Aragorn in time to be of use to him! It is my hope the most dangerous leg of their journey is behind them, but I fear it is not so.'1/1

Lothrandir stands before you, struggling against his bonds, but his eyes show no sign of despair. Defiance shines from those wells of blue, and his mouth is a resolute line.1/1

13 Speak to(Show dialog)
'Your thoughts turn to your friends, but remember you are held in the grip of your dreams. Nothing you have seen here is real, Player. I am sure our friends will be fine.'
Candaith does not sound as certain as you might wish, and you cannot help but wonder if that is proof of your own worrying doubt or something more.
'What is this place, Player? That river could be the Anduin, but... have you ever seen this place? I wonder what has called it to your memory?'1/1
14 Speak toSam (Show dialog)
'What is it, Mister Frodo? You do not look well, and have not since we came back to the shore. That shape won't be coming back, I wager. Legolas saw to that with his arrows, he did, and a good thing it was, too!
'You clutched your shoulder when it appeared, and looked to be in a great deal of pain. Are you sure you are feeling all right?1/1
15 Speak toFrodo (Show dialog)
'I am fine, Sam. I felt a chill in my heart, and the pain in my shoulder reminded me of... well, it is gone now, nothing more than a passing memory. I think we will be fine for a while. The Orcs that attacked from the other shore were dismayed by the fall of... whatever that shadow may have been.
'And yet, every paddle-stroke on the River brings us further south, and as it does my heart sinks southward still. Tonight the bow of Legolas saved us, but for how long will our fortune hold?
'I am sorry, Sam. I do not want you to worry.'1/1
16.1) Speak toMerry (Show dialog)
'How are you feeling, Pip? When that winged shadow came out from behind that cloud, I thought we were done for. I was wrong, though! Thank goodness for the quick wits and quicker bow-strings of Elves!
'I don't want to think too much about that dark shape, at least, not tonight! Maybe the memory will be less frightening in the daylight tomorrow.'1/1
16.2) Speak toPippin (Show dialog)
'Gimli says that shape we saw in the sky was a Balrog. You don't think it was, do you, Merry? I didn't get a good look at it, but that's what Gimli said. A Balrog, he said. You don't think it was, do you?'1/1
17.1) Speak toAragorn (Show dialog)
'In your hands, the bow of Galadriel is deadly indeed, Legolas! The entire company is in your debt. Did you mark how the shadow's fall dismayed the Orcs on the far shore? I feel they will not attack us again tonight.
'My guess is that our clever waterman set them on us. We have evaded his tricks thus far. May our fortune hold!'1/1
17.2) Speak toLegolas (Show dialog)
'Our journey leads us from danger into greater danger! To have lost Gandalf, to be pursued by Orcs from behind and to paddle into them ahead... what awaits us further down the river?
'And Gollum is still behind us. If he were not so cunning, perhaps I could catch him with an arrow, but it seems he has learned something about staying alive.'1/1
17.3) Speak toGimli (Show dialog)
'It was a good shot, Legolas, I will give you that. But up close? Nothing can best an axe in the hand of one of Durin's Folk. If that winged shadow had come just a hair lower I would have proven it, and you would have saved an arrow!
'Your gift has proved useful, I grant that, but when I can make use of the Lady Galadriel's gift to me you will see a thing of wonder and beauty!'1/1
18 Speak toBoromir (Show dialog)
Boromir stands apart from the rest of the group, staring across the water to the far bank, but every now and then his eyes drift in the direction of the hobbits.1/1
19 Speak toSneaking Creature (Show dialog)
'Sneaking and creeping, precious! Floating and hiding, no splishing and splashing! Like the fishes, gollum! Gollum!'
The creature Gollum stares past you with its eyes like lamps, but even in the grip of the dream you feel a chill at the thought you might be seen.
'Are you a nice fishy? Tasty? We need to keep up our strength, gollum, gollum. We can't take the precious if our handses are too weak to wrap and squeeze... we needs our strength.
'Tasty fishy. Eat, and then we follows the precious, gollum! Gollum!'1/1
