1
00:00:06,083 --> 00:00:08,958
<i>My brother
gave his life hunting Sauron.</i>

2
00:00:09,041 --> 00:00:10,375
<i>His task is now mine.</i>

3
00:00:11,708 --> 00:00:14,916
This mark's very existence
proves Sauron escaped.

4
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:16,750
The question now is, where?

5
00:00:16,833 --> 00:00:17,833
The evil is gone.

6
00:00:17,875 --> 00:00:19,375
Then why is it not gone
from in here?

7
00:00:19,500 --> 00:00:23,333
<i>These heroes shall be
granted a passage across the sea</i>

8
00:00:23,416 --> 00:00:26,541
<i>to the Undying Lands of Valinor.</i>

9
00:00:30,083 --> 00:00:31,392
<i>You're a deserter, aren't you?</i>

10
00:00:31,416 --> 00:00:33,625
<i>Duty demanded
I return to Middle-earth.</i>

11
00:00:33,666 --> 00:00:35,416
Was that the mark of your people's king?

12
00:00:35,500 --> 00:00:36,541
My people have no king.

13
00:00:36,666 --> 00:00:37,976
You are more than you claim.

14
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:41,041
Your people have no king, for you are him.

15
00:00:41,125 --> 00:00:42,708
<i>Come with me to Middle-earth.</i>

16
00:00:42,791 --> 00:00:45,125
<i>And together we will redeem
both our bloodlines.</i>

17
00:00:45,208 --> 00:00:48,166
<i>Be careful.
I am not the hero you seek.</i>

18
00:00:49,833 --> 00:00:51,458
You remember me?

19
00:00:51,541 --> 00:00:52,625
No.

20
00:00:54,208 --> 00:00:58,250
After Morgoth's defeat, I killed Sauron.

21
00:00:58,333 --> 00:00:59,333
I do not believe you.

22
00:01:00,791 --> 00:01:02,471
<i>I feel like he's my responsibility.</i>

23
00:01:02,500 --> 00:01:04,351
<i>- You feel like everyone is.
- No.</i>

24
00:01:04,375 --> 00:01:06,750
<i>He could've landed anywhere,
and he landed here.</i>

25
00:01:06,875 --> 00:01:10,750
This stranger isn't a Man, or an Elf...

26
00:01:11,416 --> 00:01:12,333
He's something else.

27
00:01:12,416 --> 00:01:14,333
<i>Á kuita!</i>

28
00:01:14,416 --> 00:01:16,583
Get back!

29
00:01:17,916 --> 00:01:19,166
<i>This is how we help him.</i>

30
00:01:20,625 --> 00:01:23,250
He wants us to help him find those stars.

31
00:01:25,250 --> 00:01:27,666
- Where are you goin'?
- To help my friend.

32
00:01:27,750 --> 00:01:31,458
<i>You're my best friend
in this whole wide, wild world.</i>

33
00:01:31,541 --> 00:01:33,101
<i>Do you remember
anything more yet?</i>

34
00:01:33,125 --> 00:01:37,791
More has come. But to discover the rest,
I know I must go to Rhûn.

35
00:01:38,666 --> 00:01:40,666
<i>Sounds a bit like an adventure.</i>

36
00:01:42,625 --> 00:01:45,875
<i>The light
of the Eldar is fading.</i>

37
00:01:45,958 --> 00:01:49,958
Despite our every effort,
our decline has only quickened.

38
00:01:50,041 --> 00:01:53,958
If the Elves abandon Middle-earth,
it will be the end,

39
00:01:54,041 --> 00:01:57,541
<i>not just of our people, but all peoples.</i>

40
00:02:00,791 --> 00:02:04,916
<i>We are on the cusp
of crafting a new kind of power.</i>

41
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:07,166
Not of the flesh, but over flesh.

42
00:02:07,250 --> 00:02:09,476
<i>All of a sudden,
the two of you seem quite familiar.</i>

43
00:02:09,500 --> 00:02:11,916
<i>I'm just offering
whatever humble aid I can.</i>

44
00:02:13,250 --> 00:02:15,090
<i>There is no King
of the Southlands.</i>

45
00:02:15,166 --> 00:02:16,250
<i>The line was broken.</i>

46
00:02:16,333 --> 00:02:17,708
Tell me your name.

47
00:02:17,791 --> 00:02:19,666
<i>I have had many names.</i>

48
00:02:20,666 --> 00:02:24,083
Sauron lives because of you!

49
00:02:34,250 --> 00:02:36,541
Galadriel, where is Halbrand?

50
00:02:36,625 --> 00:02:39,125
He is gone. And I doubt he will return.

51
00:02:40,125 --> 00:02:42,708
And should he ever,
none of us are to treat with him again.

52
00:02:42,791 --> 00:02:44,708
What happened by that stream?

53
00:03:52,583 --> 00:03:54,958
Always, after a defeat...

54
00:03:56,958 --> 00:04:00,625
the shadow takes another shape
and grows again.

55
00:04:03,583 --> 00:04:05,125
Morgoth is gone.

56
00:04:05,791 --> 00:04:08,833
Leaving us alone and disgraced.

57
00:04:10,083 --> 00:04:13,250
But today, a new age begins.

58
00:04:14,125 --> 00:04:15,166
Under me.

59
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:17,875
Your new master.

60
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:20,458
Sauron.

61
00:04:28,708 --> 00:04:32,750
And with a new age, I bring a new vision.

62
00:04:34,750 --> 00:04:37,583
A path to unconditional conquest.

63
00:04:37,666 --> 00:04:40,333
For I seek a new kind of power.

64
00:04:41,791 --> 00:04:44,958
Not of the flesh, but over flesh.

65
00:04:47,041 --> 00:04:49,125
A power of the unseen world.

66
00:04:49,958 --> 00:04:54,833
One we shall use to enslave the peoples
of Middle-earth to our very will.

67
00:04:56,458 --> 00:04:58,083
Many Orcs will die.

68
00:05:00,916 --> 00:05:06,208
But out of the chaos,
we will forge a new and perfect order.

69
00:05:06,833 --> 00:05:11,791
No longer will we be hunted
as the demons who broke Middle-earth,

70
00:05:11,875 --> 00:05:17,041
but rather worshipped
as the saviors who finally healed it.

71
00:05:17,125 --> 00:05:22,416
By bringing its peoples together,
to rule them all as one!

72
00:05:22,500 --> 00:05:24,250
Sauron lies!

73
00:05:30,166 --> 00:05:31,666
Doubt me at your peril.

74
00:05:34,375 --> 00:05:37,833
You have nowhere else to turn.
The Valar will never forgive you.

75
00:05:38,333 --> 00:05:40,500
Elves will never accept you.

76
00:05:40,583 --> 00:05:41,958
Men...

77
00:05:43,333 --> 00:05:47,083
Men will never look upon you
with anything but horror and disgust.

78
00:05:47,166 --> 00:05:49,625
A corrupted and ignoble race,

79
00:05:49,708 --> 00:05:52,750
worthy only to be hunted and slaughtered.

80
00:06:28,708 --> 00:06:34,583
I am your only future,
and my path your only path!

81
00:06:38,083 --> 00:06:40,500
Who among you dare say otherwise?

82
00:07:04,416 --> 00:07:06,016
All Hail, Lord Sauron!

83
00:07:07,500 --> 00:07:09,416
The New Dark Lord.

84
00:07:12,166 --> 00:07:14,375
All hail!

85
00:10:49,166 --> 00:10:51,000
Hail Adar!

86
00:10:51,958 --> 00:10:53,333
Hail Adar!

87
00:10:54,375 --> 00:10:58,833
My children... you are free.

88
00:10:58,916 --> 00:11:02,083
Hail Adar! Hail Adar!

89
00:11:02,166 --> 00:11:07,041
Hail Adar! Hail Adar! Hail Adar!

90
00:11:07,125 --> 00:11:11,958
Hail Adar! Hail Adar! Hail Adar!

91
00:11:12,041 --> 00:11:17,291
Hail Adar! Hail Adar! Hail Adar!

92
00:16:23,875 --> 00:16:25,875
That way lies death, friend.

93
00:16:28,375 --> 00:16:29,791
Then that is my path.

94
00:16:30,541 --> 00:16:33,166
An army of Orcs moves against Men.

95
00:16:33,250 --> 00:16:34,750
We were the fortunate ones.

96
00:16:34,833 --> 00:16:37,041
Perhaps the fortunate ones
were the first to die.

97
00:16:40,458 --> 00:16:42,083
I know you've suffered.

98
00:16:42,166 --> 00:16:43,750
I can see it in your eyes.

99
00:16:44,583 --> 00:16:46,666
There's another life waiting for you.

100
00:16:46,750 --> 00:16:48,583
You just have to turn toward it.

101
00:16:51,166 --> 00:16:52,541
That heraldry.

102
00:16:54,166 --> 00:16:55,625
What is it?

103
00:16:55,708 --> 00:16:58,375
A symbol of kings, long-dead.

104
00:16:59,583 --> 00:17:00,833
- Your family?
- No.

105
00:17:02,375 --> 00:17:03,708
My family served them.

106
00:17:04,625 --> 00:17:06,000
Then why wear it?

107
00:17:06,125 --> 00:17:09,000
As a reminder that our fates
are never certain,

108
00:17:09,125 --> 00:17:12,250
that fortunes can turn,
for even the most powerful.

109
00:17:15,500 --> 00:17:16,500
A grim reminder.

110
00:17:17,333 --> 00:17:18,833
Or a hopeful one.

111
00:17:18,916 --> 00:17:21,666
A sure path may crumble,

112
00:17:23,208 --> 00:17:24,583
but there's always another.

113
00:17:25,375 --> 00:17:28,458
Often, it can lead us someplace better.

114
00:17:30,708 --> 00:17:32,208
Someplace good.

115
00:17:35,458 --> 00:17:40,208
They say there's places across the sea,
a man can escape himself.

116
00:17:40,958 --> 00:17:42,250
Find another path.

117
00:17:42,958 --> 00:17:44,583
Perhaps another life.

118
00:17:44,666 --> 00:17:46,208
Come with us, if you like.

119
00:17:47,541 --> 00:17:49,875
Or, walk on.

120
00:17:51,375 --> 00:17:52,875
And keep chasing death.

121
00:17:58,833 --> 00:18:00,333
Choice is yours, friend.

122
00:18:53,375 --> 00:18:55,541
- Are you all right?
- No.

123
00:18:55,625 --> 00:18:57,083
Nightmares again?

124
00:18:58,541 --> 00:19:00,083
What haunts you so?

125
00:19:04,041 --> 00:19:05,250
I've done evil.

126
00:19:07,500 --> 00:19:11,500
All of us have done things
that we care not to admit.

127
00:19:15,291 --> 00:19:16,708
Not like I have.

128
00:19:18,791 --> 00:19:20,416
Find forgiveness.

129
00:19:20,500 --> 00:19:24,291
You are alive
because you have chosen good.

130
00:19:24,916 --> 00:19:26,541
But what of tomorrow?

131
00:19:26,625 --> 00:19:28,791
You have to choose it again.

132
00:19:30,041 --> 00:19:33,041
And the next day. And the next.

133
00:19:33,875 --> 00:19:36,708
Until it becomes a part of your nature.

134
00:19:49,083 --> 00:19:50,750
- Grab hold of something.
- Ah!

135
00:19:50,833 --> 00:19:53,458
Help! Help me!

136
00:20:03,958 --> 00:20:05,083
Help me!

137
00:21:28,833 --> 00:21:29,833
Over here!

138
00:21:47,791 --> 00:21:50,583
The tides of fate are flowing.

139
00:21:51,500 --> 00:21:54,791
Yours may be heading in, or out.

140
00:22:50,458 --> 00:22:53,208
Elrond, stop, give them to me!

141
00:23:21,875 --> 00:23:24,195
We intend no insult,
Commander Galadriel,

142
00:23:24,750 --> 00:23:27,500
but by order of Herald Elrond,
you are to come with us.

143
00:23:53,833 --> 00:23:54,875
Is it true?

144
00:23:59,833 --> 00:24:01,000
High King.

145
00:24:05,250 --> 00:24:07,708
Herald Elrond carries three Rings.

146
00:24:08,875 --> 00:24:12,708
A means of halting the fading
and saving our people.

147
00:24:12,791 --> 00:24:16,416
We will discuss the Rings
once you have answered the question.

148
00:24:17,291 --> 00:24:21,125
Elrond just informed me your companion,
this Halbrand,

149
00:24:21,208 --> 00:24:22,958
was not who he claimed.

150
00:24:23,041 --> 00:24:26,791
Yet you chose to withhold this
from him and Celebrimbor.

151
00:24:27,291 --> 00:24:29,125
Is it true?

152
00:24:34,750 --> 00:24:35,750
Yes.

153
00:24:37,666 --> 00:24:39,208
Who is he?

154
00:24:40,083 --> 00:24:41,458
He is not what I thought.

155
00:24:42,333 --> 00:24:44,500
Which is the reason I did what I did.

156
00:24:44,583 --> 00:24:47,666
Why do you dance so
to avoid revealing the truth?

157
00:24:49,416 --> 00:24:50,750
High King

158
00:24:53,125 --> 00:24:56,416
You must believe I would never
knowingly endanger our kind.

159
00:24:57,083 --> 00:24:58,333
I will believe you

160
00:24:58,416 --> 00:25:01,958
when I no longer see the lie
behind your eyes.

161
00:25:03,041 --> 00:25:05,875
Now, who is this Man?

162
00:25:09,458 --> 00:25:10,958
He is no Man.

163
00:25:13,166 --> 00:25:17,166
He has been... masquerading as one.

164
00:25:19,458 --> 00:25:24,458
Appearing in fair form,
to hide his true self.

165
00:25:29,750 --> 00:25:31,041
He is Sauron.

166
00:25:44,208 --> 00:25:45,291
How could you?

167
00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:49,333
Of all our kind.

168
00:25:49,416 --> 00:25:52,125
He deceived me. I was deceived!

169
00:25:52,208 --> 00:25:56,416
No, Galadriel, you were blind.
Blinded by your own pride.

170
00:25:56,500 --> 00:25:58,083
And what frailty blinded you, Elrond?

171
00:25:58,166 --> 00:25:59,000
Silence!

172
00:25:59,083 --> 00:26:00,559
What other path did your failure

173
00:26:00,583 --> 00:26:01,750
in Khazad-dûm leave us with?

174
00:26:01,833 --> 00:26:02,666
You were my friend.

175
00:26:02,750 --> 00:26:04,125
Silence!

176
00:26:07,375 --> 00:26:10,458
The Rings. Show them to me.

177
00:26:10,541 --> 00:26:12,500
Dare not, High King.
He's no doubt corrupted...

178
00:26:12,583 --> 00:26:13,958
He never touched them, High King.

179
00:26:14,041 --> 00:26:17,333
He worked with Celebrimbor for weeks.
We know not the depth of his influence.

180
00:26:17,416 --> 00:26:20,208
Soon, the last Gold-leaf will fall,

181
00:26:20,291 --> 00:26:24,583
and it will be my task to inform
all Lindon our time here is ended,

182
00:26:24,666 --> 00:26:28,291
and the Elves
must abandon these shores forever.

183
00:26:28,375 --> 00:26:32,000
Now, you inform me
our most cunning enemy is rising again.

184
00:26:32,708 --> 00:26:35,541
If we leave now,
the peoples of Middle-earth

185
00:26:35,625 --> 00:26:39,333
will be left to suffer
under the tyranny of a new Dark Lord.

186
00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:43,375
Those Rings are more than our last hope,

187
00:26:43,458 --> 00:26:45,958
they may be the last hope
for all Middle-earth.

188
00:26:46,041 --> 00:26:49,083
It is a risk we must chance to take.

189
00:26:49,708 --> 00:26:51,416
Give them to me.

190
00:26:54,083 --> 00:26:55,083
High King...

191
00:26:55,958 --> 00:26:58,708
Sauron has not yet amassed
that degree of power.

192
00:26:58,791 --> 00:27:01,250
These Rings may be how he attains it.

193
00:27:01,333 --> 00:27:03,208
They must be destroyed.

194
00:27:03,291 --> 00:27:07,375
That decision is far above your privilege,

195
00:27:07,458 --> 00:27:11,041
one you endanger
with each moment you refuse to obey.

196
00:27:12,333 --> 00:27:14,333
The Rings, Elrond.

197
00:27:16,833 --> 00:27:19,541
It is a command from your King.

198
00:27:19,625 --> 00:27:21,375
I will not utter it again.

199
00:27:21,458 --> 00:27:23,166
Obey him.

200
00:27:23,250 --> 00:27:24,476
You would say that to me?

201
00:27:24,500 --> 00:27:26,833
It is the only way. Obey him!

202
00:27:43,375 --> 00:27:44,708
I cannot.

203
00:27:50,291 --> 00:27:51,750
You know I cannot.

204
00:27:52,958 --> 00:27:53,958
Seize him!

205
00:27:56,291 --> 00:27:57,642
Elrond, no!

206
00:28:05,458 --> 00:28:08,166
Find him. Find the rings.

207
00:28:08,250 --> 00:28:09,458
Go!

208
00:28:31,458 --> 00:28:32,958
Keep up! Move!

209
00:28:43,333 --> 00:28:45,291
Move those legs, king.

210
00:28:55,375 --> 00:28:56,875
Well, take that.

211
00:28:56,958 --> 00:28:59,250
Welcome to Mordor.

212
00:28:59,333 --> 00:29:02,125
Work its land well,
and you'll be fed well.

213
00:29:02,208 --> 00:29:05,416
Work it badly, and you'll feed the soil.

214
00:29:07,625 --> 00:29:13,291
You, lad, do you swear allegiance to Adar,
Lord-father of the <i>Uruks?</i>

215
00:29:20,166 --> 00:29:22,833
It is the Southlands no more!

216
00:29:22,916 --> 00:29:26,916
In Mordor, ya bow or ya bleed.

217
00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:31,000
Right, you there.
Do you swear allegiance to Adar?

218
00:29:47,166 --> 00:29:48,583
I'll take this one!

219
00:29:53,833 --> 00:29:57,791
The King of the Southlands
turned himself in, Lord-father.

220
00:29:57,875 --> 00:30:00,208
Says he wants to negotiate.

221
00:30:06,583 --> 00:30:08,291
Let my people go.

222
00:30:12,625 --> 00:30:13,916
Or yours will die.

223
00:30:17,416 --> 00:30:19,916
My people defeated the Men of these lands.

224
00:30:21,291 --> 00:30:23,916
We defeated the Elves
who came to their aid.

225
00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:28,458
We even defeated their allies,
the Men from beyond the sea.

226
00:30:35,166 --> 00:30:37,375
There is no one left for us to fear.

227
00:30:39,125 --> 00:30:40,208
There is one.

228
00:30:41,666 --> 00:30:46,750
Since Galadriel's defeat,
she sought out a new ally.

229
00:30:47,333 --> 00:30:52,166
An ancient sorcerer, to instruct the Elves
in forging a new weapon.

230
00:30:54,875 --> 00:30:56,666
One you first told her about.

231
00:30:57,916 --> 00:30:59,750
A power over flesh.

232
00:31:01,791 --> 00:31:03,375
Do you remember those words?

233
00:31:04,041 --> 00:31:07,083
A power that will allow him
to use your children

234
00:31:07,166 --> 00:31:09,416
as slaves in his army once more.

235
00:31:10,500 --> 00:31:13,541
Set my people free, and I will tell you
where he can be found.

236
00:31:14,750 --> 00:31:19,208
So you can destroy him,
and rid us both of his evil.

237
00:31:20,958 --> 00:31:24,083
No, Your Majesty.

238
00:31:25,625 --> 00:31:29,583
You will tell me everything
you think you know of this sorcerer now.

239
00:31:31,375 --> 00:31:33,625
Or I will spill the words
from your throat.

240
00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:39,208
If I die, all that I know dies with me.

241
00:31:41,958 --> 00:31:43,375
You can't kill me.

242
00:31:45,541 --> 00:31:48,541
In time, you will beg me to.

243
00:31:50,750 --> 00:31:51,750
Ah!

244
00:31:56,250 --> 00:31:57,625
Your Majesty.

245
00:31:58,416 --> 00:31:59,541
Ha!

246
00:31:59,625 --> 00:32:01,833
What he said, Lord-father...

247
00:32:01,916 --> 00:32:06,500
Sauron... could never return, could he?

248
00:32:06,583 --> 00:32:07,583
No.

249
00:32:08,416 --> 00:32:10,083
Sauron is dead.

250
00:32:10,166 --> 00:32:11,646
On your knees, you maggots!

251
00:33:30,375 --> 00:33:31,916
You got that look in your eye.

252
00:33:37,583 --> 00:33:40,625
You had that dream again last night,
didn't you?

253
00:33:41,833 --> 00:33:45,541
If you tell me what it is you keep seein',
maybe I could...

254
00:33:46,666 --> 00:33:48,375
help you puzzle it out.

255
00:33:48,458 --> 00:33:51,583
Maybe it's a clue
to what we're going to find...

256
00:33:52,458 --> 00:33:54,333
when we reach those stars.

257
00:33:57,291 --> 00:33:59,250
It's the heat. That's all.

258
00:34:21,708 --> 00:34:24,125
No. It can't be.

259
00:34:25,833 --> 00:34:27,166
Stone trees.

260
00:34:29,250 --> 00:34:30,666
We're goin' in circles.

261
00:34:30,750 --> 00:34:35,500
There must be some evil upon this land,
confusing our path.

262
00:34:35,583 --> 00:34:37,500
Just admit it. We're lost.

263
00:34:37,583 --> 00:34:39,708
Panic is the fool's meal, Nori.

264
00:34:39,791 --> 00:34:42,125
We would be wiser to sup on patience.

265
00:34:42,208 --> 00:34:44,875
We haven't supped on anything
since we ran out of snails.

266
00:34:44,958 --> 00:34:46,583
There's nothin' to eat out here.

267
00:35:07,500 --> 00:35:09,333
Oh, no. Oh, no.

268
00:35:10,083 --> 00:35:11,083
Oh, come on.

269
00:35:11,541 --> 00:35:14,750
It might bear some fruit.
Least you could do is try.

270
00:35:14,833 --> 00:35:17,458
Have you forgotten what happened
when last I tried such a thing?

271
00:35:23,708 --> 00:35:24,708
Further.

272
00:35:33,791 --> 00:35:35,166
Further, Nori.

273
00:35:43,250 --> 00:35:44,333
All right?

274
00:36:24,916 --> 00:36:27,250
Ah!

275
00:36:37,291 --> 00:36:40,375
You did it. We'll eat for days.

276
00:36:58,541 --> 00:36:59,541
Don't be so glum.

277
00:36:59,625 --> 00:37:02,458
I asked you to conjure us up some food,
and you did.

278
00:37:03,125 --> 00:37:04,416
Nobody got hurt.

279
00:37:04,500 --> 00:37:05,708
I lost control.

280
00:37:06,583 --> 00:37:09,041
So you need to learn
how not to lose control.

281
00:37:11,625 --> 00:37:16,416
In the dream, there's a kind of... branch.

282
00:37:17,750 --> 00:37:19,041
Under the stars.

283
00:37:19,750 --> 00:37:21,583
When I reach out to grasp it...

284
00:37:27,708 --> 00:37:30,708
What is it? What happens next?

285
00:37:33,625 --> 00:37:36,458
Some things are best not shared aloud.

286
00:37:38,208 --> 00:37:42,208
Except, well, you did sort of
share it aloud.

287
00:37:42,291 --> 00:37:45,000
So it's not rightly fair
to be all cryptic about it now, is it?

288
00:37:45,083 --> 00:37:49,458
But perhaps, wizards are not always fair.

289
00:37:54,041 --> 00:37:55,625
Hmm.

290
00:37:58,458 --> 00:37:59,583
Mmm.

291
00:38:01,166 --> 00:38:03,791
- I can feel the legs in the throat.
- That's the best part.

292
00:38:03,875 --> 00:38:04,916
They're dancin'.

293
00:38:05,708 --> 00:38:08,875
Poppy and I,
we used sing little buggy songs

294
00:38:08,958 --> 00:38:11,166
so they'd have music
to dance to when they...

295
00:38:16,291 --> 00:38:17,500
Well.

296
00:38:18,958 --> 00:38:21,666
It is quite all right
for a Harfoot to miss home.

297
00:38:23,083 --> 00:38:24,958
I knew it'd be hard. It's just, um...

298
00:38:28,416 --> 00:38:29,625
Well.

299
00:38:31,750 --> 00:38:33,250
This hard's different.

300
00:38:34,500 --> 00:38:39,541
Strange how that which is left behind
can be the heaviest burden to carry.

301
00:38:43,166 --> 00:38:44,750
I miss my home, as well.

302
00:38:46,666 --> 00:38:48,291
You don't even remember yours.

303
00:38:48,791 --> 00:38:49,791
No.

304
00:38:53,250 --> 00:38:56,250
Sometimes,
I perceive a glimmer of it nonetheless.

305
00:38:56,875 --> 00:39:01,041
A longing for a feeling
I can't remember or even name.

306
00:39:04,500 --> 00:39:05,750
But I know it's real.

307
00:39:08,375 --> 00:39:10,083
Just beyond the sunset.

308
00:39:30,250 --> 00:39:31,875
It appears we're being followed.

309
00:40:21,000 --> 00:40:22,791
Come on, Your Majesty.

310
00:40:24,041 --> 00:40:27,625
Not even kings can go without food.

311
00:40:29,333 --> 00:40:30,750
Why don't you open up?

312
00:40:32,666 --> 00:40:37,583
You tell old Waldreg
everything you know about Sauron.

313
00:40:44,750 --> 00:40:48,291
Pain must be something you enjoy.

314
00:40:56,750 --> 00:41:00,208
After Lord-father releases me,
I'm going to kill you.

315
00:41:00,708 --> 00:41:03,541
Adar doesn't even remember you're here.

316
00:43:25,916 --> 00:43:26,916
Perfection.

317
00:43:27,416 --> 00:43:30,666
Perfection exists only in Valinor.

318
00:43:30,750 --> 00:43:32,250
Thank you, Master Círdan.

319
00:44:17,125 --> 00:44:18,875
You needn't hide any longer.

320
00:44:26,666 --> 00:44:28,083
Master Círdan.

321
00:44:36,458 --> 00:44:39,041
Please forgive the unexpected nature
of my visit,

322
00:44:40,416 --> 00:44:42,166
but I have nowhere else to turn.

323
00:44:42,250 --> 00:44:45,125
You are the oldest and wisest of our kind.

324
00:44:45,875 --> 00:44:48,583
And the Elves are facing
our greatest test in an age.

325
00:44:50,625 --> 00:44:53,250
I perceive you carry something
in your charge.

326
00:44:53,333 --> 00:44:56,166
Something louder than the sea.

327
00:44:57,041 --> 00:44:58,250
What have you brought here?

328
00:45:04,500 --> 00:45:07,583
It is to be given directly
to Lord Celebrimbor.

329
00:45:07,666 --> 00:45:09,375
He must be informed

330
00:45:09,458 --> 00:45:12,000
that Halbrand is Sauron.

331
00:45:12,083 --> 00:45:13,750
Move with haste,

332
00:45:14,333 --> 00:45:16,791
and trust no stranger upon your path.

333
00:45:17,416 --> 00:45:18,666
Yes, my lord.

334
00:45:31,958 --> 00:45:35,166
I have yet to thank you.
For trusting me, regarding the Rings.

335
00:45:35,250 --> 00:45:36,666
Trusting you?

336
00:45:38,291 --> 00:45:39,791
Let us be clear, Commander.

337
00:45:40,625 --> 00:45:43,875
You and I are momentarily aligned
for one reason,

338
00:45:44,375 --> 00:45:47,250
because your actions
have left us no alternative.

339
00:45:47,958 --> 00:45:51,375
Because of you, our enemy lives.

340
00:45:52,291 --> 00:45:55,291
Because of you, we've no choice
but to test the virtue of the Rings.

341
00:45:55,375 --> 00:45:56,875
I should have you thrown in fetters

342
00:45:56,958 --> 00:45:58,767
and cast to the Ettenmoors
for what you've done.

343
00:45:58,791 --> 00:46:00,416
Then why have you not?

344
00:46:03,708 --> 00:46:05,333
I am considering it.

345
00:46:14,916 --> 00:46:16,666
I swear to you, High King,

346
00:46:18,208 --> 00:46:22,541
I will not stop until he is destroyed
and I have put this right.

347
00:46:25,541 --> 00:46:28,125
You would not be here now
if I thought otherwise.

348
00:46:33,250 --> 00:46:35,625
High King,
we have not found the Rings.

349
00:46:36,625 --> 00:46:39,208
We've scoured everywhere water meets rock,
and yet,

350
00:46:40,000 --> 00:46:41,375
there's no trace of him.

351
00:46:42,291 --> 00:46:44,125
- Perhaps the fall...
- No.

352
00:46:45,166 --> 00:46:46,416
Elrond lives.

353
00:46:48,041 --> 00:46:49,666
Expand the search.

354
00:46:50,166 --> 00:46:53,833
Set a watch at every crossing.
He must not escape.

355
00:46:58,583 --> 00:47:00,458
Escape is not his plan.

356
00:47:02,250 --> 00:47:03,458
Meaning?

357
00:47:04,583 --> 00:47:06,875
He spoke of destroying the Rings.

358
00:47:07,500 --> 00:47:09,833
Elrond would seek out
someone he can trust.

359
00:47:10,541 --> 00:47:13,208
Someone older, wiser...

360
00:47:14,500 --> 00:47:16,500
Whose voice would command respect.

361
00:47:17,625 --> 00:47:19,250
Even from you.

362
00:47:19,833 --> 00:47:23,041
Someone who could turn the tides his way.

363
00:47:28,958 --> 00:47:30,458
You may examine them.

364
00:47:32,291 --> 00:47:34,208
I've seen Celebrimbor's work before.

365
00:47:35,625 --> 00:47:37,625
- He's remarkable.
- He is.

366
00:47:38,458 --> 00:47:42,458
I remember, he used to speak of, one day,
crafting objects of such power,

367
00:47:42,541 --> 00:47:45,166
they could change the heart
of any who beheld them.

368
00:47:47,000 --> 00:47:49,666
If, as you say,

369
00:47:49,750 --> 00:47:53,875
these Rings have so quickly
turned Elf against Elf...

370
00:47:56,583 --> 00:47:58,291
it would appear he has succeeded.

371
00:47:59,750 --> 00:48:03,041
Perhaps it was not Celebrimbor's hand
that produced that effect.

372
00:48:04,375 --> 00:48:06,125
If what you've told me is true,

373
00:48:07,083 --> 00:48:11,166
these three Rings were made
without Sauron's touch.

374
00:48:11,833 --> 00:48:13,250
The Enemy is cunning.

375
00:48:14,041 --> 00:48:16,458
The Rings may well be a ploy on his part.

376
00:48:16,541 --> 00:48:19,916
A device in some larger plan,
the end of which we cannot yet see.

377
00:48:25,666 --> 00:48:27,291
What would you ask of me?

378
00:48:28,666 --> 00:48:30,541
The Rings must be destroyed.

379
00:48:31,666 --> 00:48:34,541
Do so, and the Age of the Elves will end.

380
00:48:37,333 --> 00:48:41,625
We would be abandoning
all Middle-earth to its fate.

381
00:48:42,666 --> 00:48:43,791
Could you accept that?

382
00:48:43,875 --> 00:48:48,083
If to do otherwise means falling prey
to the designs of the Enemy...

383
00:48:49,375 --> 00:48:50,375
Yes.

384
00:48:51,583 --> 00:48:53,333
You do your father proud.

385
00:49:05,125 --> 00:49:06,708
Long ago, there was a battle.

386
00:49:08,416 --> 00:49:11,583
One whose weapons
were the very bones of the continents.

387
00:49:11,666 --> 00:49:14,500
Still now, at the spot
where our bay meets the sea,

388
00:49:14,583 --> 00:49:17,375
there remains on the seabed
a scar so deep,

389
00:49:17,458 --> 00:49:20,250
its end none but Manwë himself knows.

390
00:49:20,333 --> 00:49:25,166
If one were to cast these Rings
into its depths, they...

391
00:49:38,375 --> 00:49:39,916
Let me speak with him first.

392
00:49:41,166 --> 00:49:42,583
Please, High King.

393
00:49:44,000 --> 00:49:47,541
Give me one last chance
to reason with my friend?

394
00:49:48,958 --> 00:49:50,541
Reason quickly.

395
00:49:58,541 --> 00:49:59,625
Elrond?

396
00:50:01,708 --> 00:50:03,500
I have come to coax you willingly.

397
00:50:04,000 --> 00:50:07,000
If I fail, the High King
will see you removed by force.

398
00:50:12,125 --> 00:50:14,083
I have failed enough of late, old friend.

399
00:50:15,583 --> 00:50:17,250
Help me succeed this time?

400
00:50:20,583 --> 00:50:25,000
I should have trusted you,
as I asked you to trust me.

401
00:50:26,666 --> 00:50:30,500
But unless we both trust in the Rings now,
all will be lost.

402
00:50:33,000 --> 00:50:34,625
With three, there is balance.

403
00:50:35,958 --> 00:50:36,958
Don't you remember?

404
00:50:37,708 --> 00:50:39,500
We chose this path together.

405
00:50:41,500 --> 00:50:44,208
- No, you chose it for me.
- Elrond...

406
00:50:44,291 --> 00:50:46,125
What so frightens you, you cannot consider

407
00:50:46,208 --> 00:50:47,708
the possibility of their corruption?

408
00:50:50,083 --> 00:50:51,583
Because in my heart,

409
00:50:52,833 --> 00:50:55,666
I know The Three Rings
are free of his influence.

410
00:50:56,458 --> 00:50:57,541
But are you?

411
00:51:00,083 --> 00:51:04,375
The light of Valinor shone
upon your very face, Galadriel,

412
00:51:05,041 --> 00:51:06,666
and you turned your back on it.

413
00:51:08,083 --> 00:51:12,375
Was it truly to fight the darkness
or was the darkness calling to you?

414
00:51:12,458 --> 00:51:15,583
Can you not see?
All this may be by his design.

415
00:51:15,666 --> 00:51:17,708
I did what I felt was right.

416
00:51:19,666 --> 00:51:23,666
And time alone will reveal
whether that was folly or wisdom.

417
00:51:26,625 --> 00:51:29,083
What time do you think you have?

418
00:51:31,791 --> 00:51:33,208
Where is Círdan?

419
00:51:33,916 --> 00:51:35,916
You did what you must, Galadriel.

420
00:51:38,708 --> 00:51:40,083
So have I.

421
00:51:40,166 --> 00:51:41,416
Elrond.

422
00:51:42,708 --> 00:51:44,541
Where are the Rings?

423
00:53:05,291 --> 00:53:06,291
Huh?

424
00:53:14,500 --> 00:53:15,958
Poppy!

425
00:53:18,458 --> 00:53:20,708
Mmm, honey biscuits.

426
00:53:20,791 --> 00:53:22,708
Never been happier in my life
than right now.

427
00:53:26,916 --> 00:53:28,666
How's everyone at home?

428
00:53:30,291 --> 00:53:31,416
About the same.

429
00:53:31,500 --> 00:53:33,375
Your ma took to giving me your chores,

430
00:53:33,458 --> 00:53:35,208
but your da said I didn't have to do 'em.

431
00:53:38,916 --> 00:53:40,333
You came after us.

432
00:53:41,000 --> 00:53:44,125
Wasn't so hard.
You haven't exactly gotten very far.

433
00:53:44,208 --> 00:53:45,583
Yes, well, we appear to be lost.

434
00:53:45,666 --> 00:53:47,000
So now you admit it.

435
00:53:47,083 --> 00:53:49,166
Well, you won't be for long. Look.

436
00:53:51,208 --> 00:53:52,916
I was sifting through Sadoc's old book.

437
00:53:53,000 --> 00:53:55,500
Harfoots must've journeyed this way
a long time ago.

438
00:53:55,583 --> 00:53:57,208
See, there's a warnin',

439
00:53:57,291 --> 00:54:00,750
"Not to forget the words to the song,
or you'll just go round in circles."

440
00:54:00,833 --> 00:54:02,791
Song? What song?

441
00:54:02,875 --> 00:54:03,916
Give you one guess.

442
00:54:04,000 --> 00:54:08,125
<i>Sing to me, sing to me, land far away</i>

443
00:54:09,458 --> 00:54:11,875
- The walkin' song?
- I think it's some kinda directions.

444
00:54:11,958 --> 00:54:13,583
Our folk have been wanderin' for years.

445
00:54:13,666 --> 00:54:15,791
Guess this path
must have been important to them.

446
00:54:15,875 --> 00:54:17,625
I say, we climb.

447
00:54:18,500 --> 00:54:23,666
"Trees of stone... Light in the tower,
no longer my home."

448
00:54:30,125 --> 00:54:31,125
There.

449
00:54:36,375 --> 00:54:38,208
"Past eyes of pale fire."

450
00:54:40,916 --> 00:54:42,666
"Black sand for my bed."

451
00:54:45,916 --> 00:54:49,291
"I trade all I've known
for the unknown ahead."

452
00:55:07,125 --> 00:55:09,541
Welcome to the lands of Rhûn.

453
00:55:10,708 --> 00:55:13,125
Come on. What are you waitin' for?

454
00:55:14,125 --> 00:55:15,625
This is only the beginnin'.

455
00:55:23,041 --> 00:55:24,708
Why you looking at it like that?

456
00:55:26,833 --> 00:55:28,000
Like what?

457
00:55:28,583 --> 00:55:30,458
Like you've been here before.

458
00:55:33,333 --> 00:55:34,750
Only in dreams.

459
00:57:14,916 --> 00:57:16,416
I was in your place once.

460
00:57:20,958 --> 00:57:22,958
In the eldest of the Elder Days.

461
00:57:27,666 --> 00:57:32,125
Thirteen of us were chosen
to be blessed of Morgoth's hand,

462
00:57:32,208 --> 00:57:34,041
with the promise of power.

463
00:57:36,000 --> 00:57:37,416
A new birth.

464
00:57:41,708 --> 00:57:45,166
I was led up to a dark and nameless peak.

465
00:57:45,250 --> 00:57:47,541
Chained and left.

466
00:57:49,208 --> 00:57:53,916
And after what seemed
endless thirst and hunger...

467
00:57:56,958 --> 00:57:58,166
I saw it.

468
00:58:01,333 --> 00:58:02,875
His servant's face.

469
00:58:05,375 --> 00:58:07,083
Sauron's face.

470
00:58:09,291 --> 00:58:11,708
And it was beautiful.

471
00:58:14,166 --> 00:58:17,375
He offered me wine, red as a blood moon.

472
00:58:20,666 --> 00:58:24,208
He offered me wine,
and on that dark and nameless peak,

473
00:58:26,125 --> 00:58:27,166
I drank it.

474
00:58:27,583 --> 00:58:28,958
I drank it all.

475
00:58:33,791 --> 00:58:35,708
Your people have been set free.

476
00:58:38,791 --> 00:58:41,000
Now, tell me what you know of Sauron.

477
00:58:46,375 --> 00:58:48,875
Sauron has returned in a new form.

478
00:58:50,625 --> 00:58:54,083
I am not yet certain
what shape he has taken.

479
00:58:54,166 --> 00:58:55,833
Then of what use are you to me?

480
00:58:56,750 --> 00:58:58,833
I have something you don't.

481
00:58:58,916 --> 00:59:00,416
The trust of the Elves.

482
00:59:01,416 --> 00:59:02,875
Release me,

483
00:59:04,541 --> 00:59:06,458
and I'll go to them and seek him out,

484
00:59:07,041 --> 00:59:09,750
so you can marshal your legions
to destroy him.

485
00:59:26,625 --> 00:59:30,208
Do you vow allegiance to Adar,

486
00:59:30,875 --> 00:59:33,125
Lord-father of the <i>Uruks?</i>

487
00:59:40,750 --> 00:59:42,125
Yes.

488
00:59:44,791 --> 00:59:46,250
Then kneel.

489
01:00:02,625 --> 01:00:04,000
Now, swear it.

490
01:00:07,500 --> 01:00:10,333
- I vow...
- With your head at my feet.

491
01:00:26,000 --> 01:00:28,458
I vow to serve the Lord of Mordor.

492
01:00:31,875 --> 01:00:33,541
To the end of my days...

493
01:00:35,875 --> 01:00:36,916
and his.

494
01:00:52,625 --> 01:00:54,750
What're you doing? Keep away.

495
01:00:58,500 --> 01:01:00,666
See that he's followed. Every step.

496
01:01:02,833 --> 01:01:04,833
"I'm going to kill you."

497
01:01:06,375 --> 01:01:08,416
Is that right, Your Majesty?

498
01:01:09,625 --> 01:01:11,541
All hail the king.

499
01:01:11,625 --> 01:01:12,875
Oh!

500
01:01:35,541 --> 01:01:38,208
<i>O Elven-kind!</i>

501
01:01:38,291 --> 01:01:44,291
<i>Too long have we dwelt
Upon this Hither Shore</i>

502
01:01:46,458 --> 01:01:51,833
<i>And now, a fading crown...</i>

503
01:01:51,916 --> 01:01:57,458
<i>Must trade, to sail to Valinor</i>

504
01:01:57,541 --> 01:02:02,791
<i>O Elven-kind!</i>

505
01:02:02,875 --> 01:02:07,750
<i>O Elven-kind!</i>

506
01:02:07,833 --> 01:02:10,666
<i>The Winter comes</i>

507
01:02:10,750 --> 01:02:16,750
<i>The bare and leafless day...</i>

508
01:02:19,333 --> 01:02:24,541
<i>O Elven-kind!</i>

509
01:02:24,625 --> 01:02:29,375
<i>O Elven-kind!</i>

510
01:02:30,000 --> 01:02:32,958
<i>The leaves are falling in the stream</i>

511
01:02:33,041 --> 01:02:39,041
<i>The river flows away</i>

512
01:02:44,791 --> 01:02:48,625
The light of the Eldar has faded.

513
01:02:49,166 --> 01:02:52,416
As coals too long removed from the hearth,

514
01:02:53,250 --> 01:02:58,708
we must return to our home
or diminish forever into endless night.

515
01:02:58,791 --> 01:03:01,166
And so it is come to pass,

516
01:03:01,750 --> 01:03:06,208
our days in Middle-earth... are ended.

517
01:03:31,833 --> 01:03:35,750
Perfection does not exist
only in Valinor, High King.

518
01:03:37,458 --> 01:03:38,750
It is here.

519
01:03:39,458 --> 01:03:42,625
Celebrimbor has brought it
to Middle-earth.

520
01:03:55,458 --> 01:03:56,750
No!

521
01:04:23,208 --> 01:04:24,708
Galadriel.

522
01:04:28,500 --> 01:04:29,750
No.

523
01:07:37,083 --> 01:07:40,333
The new forge
is remarkable, my lord.

524
01:07:41,750 --> 01:07:43,583
It is, indeed.

525
01:07:43,666 --> 01:07:47,958
Let us pray the Rings worked,
so we have a chance to use it.

526
01:07:49,208 --> 01:07:52,541
Forgive me, my lord,
but a messenger has just arrived.

527
01:07:53,375 --> 01:07:55,041
Word from Lindon?

528
01:07:55,125 --> 01:07:58,708
To the contrary, my lord.
This messenger is from the Southlands.

529
01:07:58,791 --> 01:08:01,375
He says he wants to negotiate.

530
01:08:29,250 --> 01:08:31,958
Well, my lord? Do we grant him entry?

531
01:09:07,708 --> 01:09:09,833
<i>I have seen
mountains crumbling.</i>

532
01:09:10,833 --> 01:09:12,291
<i>Waters running dry.</i>

533
01:09:13,083 --> 01:09:16,083
And clouds. Black.
Gathering over white towers.

534
01:09:21,750 --> 01:09:22,910
<i>A storm is coming.</i>

535
01:09:23,708 --> 01:09:24,892
Prepare yourselves.

536
01:09:24,916 --> 01:09:27,750
<i>I am waiting for you.</i>

537
01:09:34,666 --> 01:09:36,125
<i>Something has awoken them.</i>

538
01:09:36,208 --> 01:09:38,583
No. Someone.

539
01:09:39,625 --> 01:09:43,541
<i>It is said he has taken
a new form to deceive his enemies.</i>

540
01:09:43,625 --> 01:09:46,041
- Who are you?
- Annatar.

541
01:09:46,500 --> 01:09:47,875
Lord of Gifts.

542
01:09:49,666 --> 01:09:53,625
Sauron is alone, without army or ally.

543
01:09:54,625 --> 01:09:57,625
He needs not armies... but Rings.

544
01:09:59,166 --> 01:10:03,541
Seven Rings. Seven Dwarves.
And bound within each, power.

545
01:10:06,375 --> 01:10:08,791
<i>You saved the Elves.
Make Rings for Men.</i>

546
01:10:08,875 --> 01:10:11,333
We cannot give Rings to Men.

547
01:10:11,416 --> 01:10:14,375
<i>The risk of corruption
is simply too great.</i>

548
01:10:15,875 --> 01:10:18,958
<i>True creation
requires sacrifice.</i>

549
01:10:22,166 --> 01:10:24,166
In choosing to wear those Rings,

550
01:10:24,250 --> 01:10:26,833
<i>you have all chosen
to become his collaborators.</i>

551
01:10:26,916 --> 01:10:28,226
<i>Take off the Ring.</i>

552
01:10:32,333 --> 01:10:34,500
I will defeat him. At any cost.

553
01:10:35,250 --> 01:10:37,250
No! This is what Sauron wants!

554
01:10:39,833 --> 01:10:42,416
I've felt bound.
To try and do something special.

555
01:10:42,500 --> 01:10:44,541
You must remain calm at the storm's eye.

556
01:10:46,583 --> 01:10:48,958
This magic. Can you teach it to me?

557
01:10:49,041 --> 01:10:51,001
<i>If you prove yourself
worthy of it.</i>

558
01:10:57,458 --> 01:11:01,041
<i>Sauron rises in the west.
A Dark Wizard in the east.</i>

559
01:11:01,125 --> 01:11:04,083
<i>Every soul in Middle-earth is in peril.</i>

560
01:11:04,583 --> 01:11:06,666
Will you abandon them to their doom?

561
01:11:07,333 --> 01:11:08,851
<i>Together we can put this right.</i>

562
01:11:08,875 --> 01:11:11,041
- Nobody goes off-trail.
<i>- Nobody walks alone.</i>

563
01:11:15,833 --> 01:11:18,041
I need your axe, old friend.
I need it now.

564
01:11:20,875 --> 01:11:23,416
<i>Celebrimbor,
you and I have work to do.</i>
