To the Bridge of Khazad-dûm!

What is this new devilment ?

A balrog, a demon of the ancient world.

This foe is beyond any of you RUN!

Gandalf!

Lead them on Aragorn. The Bridge is near! Do as I say! Swords are of no more use here.

Gandalf!

Merry! Pippin!

Sam!

Nobody tosses a dwarf!

Mind the beard!

Steady! Hold on! Hang on! Lean forward!

Come on!

Over the Bridge! Fly!

You cannot pass!

Gandalf!

I am the Servant of the Secret Fire. Wielder of the Flame of Anor.

The dark fire will not avail you. Flame of Udûn!

Go back to the shadow!

You shall not pass!

No!

Gandalf!

Fly you fools!

NOOoooooooooooooo!

Aragorn!

Legolas! Get them up!

Give them a moment! For pities sake!

By nightfall this hills will be swarming with orcs! We must reach the woods of Lothlórien. Come, Boromir, Legolas, Gimli, get them up! On your feet Sam, Frodo? Frodo!

Stay close young Hobbits! They say there’s a great sorceress lives in these woods. An Elf-witch of terrible power. All who look upon her fall under her spell…

Frodo…

…and are never seen again.

Your coming to us … is as the footsteps of doom. You bring great evil here Ring-bearer!

Mr. Frodo?

Well, here’s one Dwarf she won’t ensnare so easily. I have the eyes of a hawk and the ears of a fox!

Oh..

The dwarf breathes so loud we could have shot him in the dark.

(mumbles)

Mae govannen, Legolas Thranduilion. (Welcome Legolas, son of Thranduil)

Govannas vîn gwennen le, Haldir o Lórien. (Our Fellowship stands in your debt, Haldir of Lórien)

A Aragorn in Dúnedain istannen le ammen. (And Aragorn of the Dúnedain, you are known to us)

Haldir.

So much for the legendary courtesy of the Elves! Speak words we can all understand!

We have not had dealings with the Dwarves since the Dark Days.

And do you know what this Dwarf says to that? Ishkhaqwi ai durugnul! (I spit upon your grave!)

That was not so courteous.

You bring great evil with you. You can go no further.

Gandalf’s death was not in vain. Nor would he have you give up hope. You carry a heavy burden, Frodo. Don’t carry the weight of the dead.

You will follow me.

Caras Galadhon. The heart of Elvendom on earth. Realm of the Lord Celeborn and of Galadriel, Lady of Light.

The Enemy knows you have entered here. What hope you had in secrecy is now gone. Eight that are here yet nine there were set out from Rivendell. Tell me where is Gandalf? For I much desire to speak with him. I can no longer see him from afar.

Gandalf the Grey did not pass the borders of this land. He has fallen into Shadow.

He was taken by both Shadow and flame. A Balrog of Morgoth. For we went needlessly into the net of Moria.

Needless were none of the deeds of Gandalf in life. We do not yet know his full purpose. Do not let the great emptiness of Khazad-dûm fill your heart, Gimli, son of Glóin. For the world has grown full of peril. And in all lands love is now mingled with grief.

What now becomes of this Fellowship? Without Gandalf, hope is lost.

The quest stands upon the edge of a knife. Stray but a little and it will fail to the ruin of all. Yet hope remains while the Company is true.

Do not let your hearts be troubled. Go now and rest for you are weary with sorrow and much toil. Tonight you will sleep in peace …

Welcome Frodo of the Shire. One who has seen the Eye!

A lament for Gandalf.

What do they say about him?

I have not the heart to tell you. For me the grief is still too near.

I bet they don’t mention his fireworks. There should be a verse about them.

The finest rockets ever seen

They burst in stars of blue and green

Or after thunder, silver showers…

Came falling like a … rain of flowers

Oh, that doesn’t do them justice by a long road.

Take some rest. These borders are well-protected.

I will find no rest here. I heard her voice inside my head. She spoke of my father and the fall of Gondor. She said to me “Even now there is hope left.” But I cannot see it. It is long since we had any hope. My father is a noble man, but his rule is failing. And now our people lose faith. He looks to me to make things right and I would do it. I would see the glory of Gondor restored. Have you ever seen it Aragorn? The White tower of Ecthelion, glimmering like a spike of pearl and silver. Its banners caught high in the morning breeze. Have you ever been called home by the clear ringing of silver trumpets?

I have seen the White City, long ago.

One day, our paths will lead us there. And the tower guards shall take up the call: “The Lords of Gondor have returned!”

Will you look into the mirror?

What will I see?

Even the wisest cannot tell. For the mirror shows many things.

Things that were, things that are and some things … that have not yet come to pass.

I know what it is you saw. For it is also in my mind. It is what will come to pass if you should fail. The Fellowship is breaking. It has already begun. He will try to take the Ring. You know of whom I speak. One by one it will destroy them all.

If you ask it of me, I will give you the One Ring.

You offer it to me freely. I do not deny that my heart has greatly desired this.

In place of a dark lord, you will have a queen! Not dark but beautiful and terrible as the dawn! Treacherous as the sea! Stronger than the foundations of the Earth! All shall love me and despair!

I pass the test! I will diminish, and go into the West, and remain Galadriel.

I cannot do this alone.

You are a Ring-bearer, Frodo. To bear a Ring of Power is to be alone. This is Nenya, the Ring of Adamant. And I am its keeper. This task was appointed to you. And if you do not find a way, no one will.

Then I know what I must do. It’s just… I’m afraid to do it.

Even the smallest person can change the course of the future.

Do you know how the Orcs first came into being? They were elves once, taken by the dark powers. Tortured and mutilated. A ruined and terrible form of life. Now … perfected ... my fighting Uruk-Hai. Whom do you serve?

Saruman!

Hunt them down. Do not stop until they are found. You do not know pain. You do not know fear. You will taste man flesh!

One of the halflings carries something of great value. Bring them to me alive and unspoiled. Kill the others!
