1:16:00
Uncle, I have avenged thee!
1:16:07
Theoden was borne
from the field with honor.

1:16:10
And we wondered if, when our own lord,
King Aragorn, returned...

1:16:15
...would his fate be the same?
1:16:21
With the death of the Nazgul lord,
Sauron's forces lost heart...

1:16:26
...and began a retreat of abysmal disarray.
1:16:31
And then, as if our triumph
were but a child's toy...

1:16:35
...a game with which Sauron
was playing and taunting us...

1:16:39
...the tide of battle suddenly changed.
1:16:42
For from the wretched forces of evil,
a new cry of hope went up.

1:16:49
The Black Fleet!
1:16:52
That which I dreaded had happened.
1:16:54
For if enemy-laden ships had come
from this direction...

1:16:58
...it meant that the black forces had
already conquered Ethir and Lebennin...

1:17:03
...lands we had thought safely ours.
1:17:12
The tide had turned still one more time...
1:17:15
...and this time, against us!
1:17:21
But behold!
1:17:22
As the flagship's standard broke the wind...
1:17:25
...it displayed the sign no lord
had borne for years...

1:17:29
...and which only one lord could bear:
1:17:33
Aragon! He who would be our king...
1:17:37
...had returned!
1:17:43
And the hosts of Mordor
were seized with bewilderment...

1:17:46
...and they fled.
1:17:50
That night we held council.
1:17:53
While Aragorn had the enemy on the run...
1:17:55
...he decided to pursue them into Mordor...
1:17:58
...across the Gorgoroth Plateau...
