'Saruman has used some foul craft to destroy part of the Deeping Wall, and the coomb lies undefended before his forces! Orcs and Dunlendings alike pour through the hole, wielding sword and axe, but I count other of their weapons more deadly: some of our foes carry devices bedecked with lit fuses. The black powder contained within is harmless on its own, but causes a tremendous explosion when set aflame. Did one of these destroy the wall?
'Slay our foes on this side of the wall, Player, and extinguish the fuses of any lit devices you encounter!'0/1

'The victory is ours, and the night is not yet ended; there will be plenty of time for more deeds of valour, my friend. Ah, do not worry yourself on our account! The Riders Four have seen worse scrapes than this, and I deem you have as well.
'Take care of yourself, Player, and of Théoden King! We will defend Rohan to the very last!'0/1
