TVTranscript
00:03Nothing is evil in the beginning, and there was a time when the world was so young, there
00:14had not yet been a sunrise, but even then, there was light.
00:40Well, is it finished yet?
00:55Even you couldn't possibly believe that it would scrap your float?
01:00It's not going to float, it's going to sail.
01:25Stop!
01:26Stop, don't!
01:28Stop, you're breaking it!
01:30Stop!
01:31Don't!
01:32Stop, you're breaking it!
01:34Stop!
01:37I told you it wouldn't float.
01:43Get off me!
01:44Lose your footing again, Galadriel.
01:54It was a good ship, sister.
01:56I made it just as you taught me.
01:59Do you know why a ship floats and a stone cannot?
02:05Because the stone sees only downward.
02:10The darkness of the water is vast and irresistible.
02:15The ship feels the darkness as well, striving moment by moment to master her and pull her under.
02:22But the ship has a secret.
02:26For unlike the stone, her gaze is not downward but up, fixed upon the light that guides her, whispering of
02:35grander things than darkness ever knew.
02:39But sometimes, the lights shine just as brightly reflected in the water as they do in the sky.
02:45It's hard to say which way is up and which way is down.
02:50How am I to know what lights to follow?
03:04But that seems so simple.
03:06The most important truths often are.
03:09But you must learn to discern for yourself.
03:11I won't always be here to speak them to you.
03:14You won't?
03:16Come along.
03:18Father and Father are waiting.
03:29We had no word for death.
03:32For we thought our joys would be unending.
03:49We thought our light would never dim.
03:57So when the great foe Morgoth destroyed the very light of our home...
04:06We resisted.
04:11And a legion of elves went to war.
04:20We left Valinor, our home, and journeyed to a distant realm.
04:26One filled with untold perils and strange creatures beyond count.
04:32A place known as Middle-earth.
04:36A place known as Middle-earth.
04:36A place known as Middle-earth.
04:59A place known as Middle-earth.
05:01You should go far more.
05:08A place known as Middle-earth.
05:09They said it would be over quickly.
05:12But the war left Middle-earth in ruin.
05:19And would last centuries.
05:22Centuries.
05:43Now, we learned many words for death.
05:51In the end, Morgoth would be defeated, but not before much sorrow.
06:00For his orcs had spread to every corner of Middle-earth, multiplying ever greater under the command of his most
06:10devoted servant, a cruel and cunning sorcerer.
06:15They called him Sauron.
06:19My brother vowed to seek him out and destroy him.
06:26But Sauron found him first, and marked his flesh with a symbol.
06:34One whose meaning even our wisest could not discern.
06:41And there, in the darkness, his vow became mine.
06:50And so, we hunted.
06:55To the ends of the earth, we hunted Sauron.
07:00But the trail grew thin.
07:05Year gave way to year.
07:08Century gave way to century.
07:10And for many elves, the pain of those days passed out of thought and mind.
07:18More and more of our kind began to believe that Sauron was but a memory.
07:24And the threat, at last, was ended.
07:31I wish I could be one of them.
07:34And for time to understand, we haven't found a woman who bought some money since I was on the planet.
08:28Commander Galadriel.
08:29Commander Galadriel, this company has followed you to the very edge of the world, but none
08:35who ever dared search for this last stronghold has ever found anything.
08:40It's been years since the last orc was sighted.
08:44Is it not possible the other commanders are right, and our enemy is no more?
08:48Night is closing in.
08:50How long can living flesh endure where even sunlight fears to tread?
08:58Perhaps it would be wise to camp here, and tomorrow begin the journey home.
09:07We are losing the light.
09:23Rolando, wait!
09:25No!
09:26We keep moving!
09:27Calabrio!
09:28Stop!
09:50There's nothing out here, we should have been there by now.
09:53Calabrio!
10:00We are there!
10:021.
10:23This is where the orcs gathered after Morgoth's defeat.
10:28Far more must've escaped than we ever imagined.
10:31My hand is past feeling.
10:36No.
10:38This place is so evil our torches give off no warmth.
10:42This way.
10:44How can you be certain?
10:46It's colder than the rest.
11:16The door was filled in here.
11:19Bring it down.
11:53What devilry is this?
11:58These orcs were meddling with the powers of the unseen world.
12:02Some dark sorcery of old.
12:07But what was their purpose?
12:10Surely it is lost to the ages now.
12:13Whatever happened here was long ago.
12:22Water.
12:33Even stone cannot hide the mark of one whose very hand is flame unquenched.
12:45He was here.
12:47Sauron was here.
12:49Tell the others to rest while they can.
12:51At sunrise we move on.
12:53Let's take the search farther north.
12:54Further north?
12:56This mark was left as a trail for orcs to follow.
12:59The last time I saw it was on my brother.
13:02We must follow it.
13:03The mark is centuries old.
13:06Whoever left it could be long dead.
13:08Or lying in wait, gathering strength, perfecting whatever dark heart eluded him here.
13:11We exceeded our orders months ago.
13:14Surely we must first return home.
13:16To take counsel with the High King.
13:17I promise you there is not a soul amongst our company who yearns for home more than I.
13:26I can still feel the light of the trees on my face.
13:30I can still see it.
13:33And until we are certain, every trace of our enemy is vanquished, I can never return.
13:44There we are.
13:46There we are.
13:53Let's begin.
14:04I'll Capuch.
14:04I've got you.

20:25RESTORO!
20:25I found something!
20:27There is something in the mud!
20:30What is it?ぶn,
20:33It looks like a fitsie! A dog?rences
20:38you know how
20:39dogs love peries. Is he going to
20:48eat owlberries? Not if he doesn't
20:50see us.
20:52Okay, twos in hands, everyone. Time to go.
20:56Where's the big guard?
20:58What?
20:59That's what's that?
21:00You heard your sister. Time to go.
21:02Oh, no. Come on. First one back to camp. It's the first pie at Harvest Fest.
21:07Let's go.
21:09Back there, if anybody asks.
21:11We were just out digging for snails.
21:28Home.
21:32For centuries they have swept across a crag and crevice washing away the last remnants of our enemy.
21:39Like a spring rain over the bones of a dead animal.
21:45Spring rain over the bones of...
21:50Harold Elrond.
21:53At last.
21:56Yes, it's almost as if I didn't wish to be found.
21:59What tidying?
22:00The council regrets to inform you you won't be permitted to attend the next session.
22:07Elflords only.
22:11Was there anything else?
22:12Yes. Your friend has arrived.
22:15She's here.
22:16What? Your sister.
22:24For the servant.
22:42Galatria.
22:46Helrond.
22:56I hear it said that when you cross over you hear a song.
23:00One whose memory we all carry.
23:03You are immersed in a light more intoxicating than any sensation in all of Middle-earth.
23:08When I was a child, it was the only feeling I knew.
23:12And look at you now.
23:14Commander of the Northern armies.
23:16Warrior of the wastelands.
23:17I half expected you to arrive taped to grime and mud.
23:22This time frostbite.
23:23And troll blood.
23:25And no armor.
23:28Tell me everything.
23:29This mark's very existence proves Sauron escaped.
23:33He's still out there.
23:35The question now is where?
23:37I intend to ask of the King of Fresh Company.
23:40When supplies are left.
23:41You have only just arrived.
23:43Must you speak of leaving again so soon?
23:45You know very well why I must.
23:47There will be ample time later to discuss official matters.
23:51I want to hear about you.
23:55Your harrowing journey.
23:57Why, Elrond.
23:58You really have become a politician.
24:00You make it sound so grim.
24:02I am not some courtier to be placated by idle flattery.
24:06I demand to speak with the King directly.
24:11You have made that plain.
24:14So I will be equally plain.
24:18It was not your company who defied you out there.
24:22It was rather you who defied the High King.
24:25By refusing to heed any limit placed upon you.
24:29In an act of magnanimity he has chosen to honor your accomplishments.
24:34Rather than dwell upon your insolence.
24:39Test him again.
24:40You may find him less receptive than you might have hoped.
24:50Are you going to arrange an audience or not?
24:54If after the ceremony that is still your wish, you shall have it.
25:02Come on.
25:04Come on.
25:05Come on.
25:06Come on.
25:10Come on.
25:12Come on.
25:12How fair thee?
25:13Well and well, Father.
25:15Look at her.
25:16You find all that down by the riverbank, did you?
25:18Mm-hmm.
25:20You hear about the travelers?
25:22Travelers?
25:22Mm-hmm.
25:23Hunters.
25:25Two of them.
25:26Biggest great boulders.
25:28Right up on that ridge.
25:29I can't believe I missed them.
25:31Maybe artists are close at all.
25:32That way you don't miss anything.
25:43You went to the old farm again.
25:45Didn't you?
25:48I was careful.
25:49But the children might not be.
25:50I'm sorry.
25:51I didn't know.
25:52We never get hunters up here before the harvest.
25:55Or wolves.
25:59I wonder if there's trouble down south.
26:02And what concern is that of yours, Eleanor Brandyfoot?
26:09Haven't you ever wondered?
26:12What else is out there?
26:13How far the river flows.
26:15Or where the sparrows learn the new songs they sing in spring.
26:19I can't help but feel there's wonders in this world.
26:23Beyond our wandering.
26:26I've told you.
26:28Countless times.
26:32Elves have forests to protect.
26:34Dwarf their minds.
26:36Mend their fields of grain.
26:38Even trees have to worry about the soil beneath their roots.
26:42But we Harfoots are free from the worries of the wide world.
26:46We are but ripples.
26:47In a long, long stream.
26:50Our paths set by the passing seasons.
26:53Nobody goes off trail.
26:54And nobody walks alone.
26:57We have each other.
26:59We're safe.
27:01That is how we survive.
27:06Go on.
27:07Help your father.
27:10That's the problem.
27:12You see, we are supposed to be rare.
27:16I hope.
27:18I hope.
27:19I hope.
27:22I hope.
27:23I hope.
27:24I hope.
27:25I hope.
27:26I hope.
27:28I hope.
27:34I hope.
27:35I hope.
27:39I hope.
27:48I hope.
27:49of warriors kneel here before us. Victorious. For though Morgoth fell an age ago, some feared
28:00a new evil might arise from his shadow. So for centuries now, these soldiers have swept
28:06across crag and crevice, washing away the last remnants of our enemy like a spring rain
28:13over the bones of a spoilt carcass. And now at last, they return to us in triumph. For
28:24they have proven beyond any doubt that our days of war are over. Today, our days of peace
28:37begins.
29:03And, as a measure of our gratitude, the end of the day will begin.
29:08These heroes shall be granted an honor unrivaled. In all our lore, they will be escorted to
29:14the Grey Havens, and granted passage across the sea to dwell for all eternity. In the
29:21blessed realm, the far west, the undying lands of Valinor. At last, they are going home!
29:43The Most Malone!
29:52The One of Thee Mutuals
29:53It is a waste and a river which is being crushed and exposed to the Pearl's
29:54The Greatest tragedy of Thee Mutuals
30:01The Everasset
30:01The New Testament
30:01The New Testament
30:01The New Testament
30:05The New Testament
30:31Are you just going to stand there breathing like an awk?
30:37It is said the wine of victory is sweetest for those in whose bitter trials it is fomentable.
30:44I do not feel victorious.
30:46You deserve the honors of this day. Your brother would be proud.
30:57I remember when the first of these were carved.
31:01The likeness of one fallen preserved upon a living thing.
31:05I suppose some part of me always believed my rest would be here, with them.
31:10But instead I am to leave them.
31:14This is the gift of your king?
31:20A gift I have decided to refuse.
31:24My brother gave his life hunting Sauron.
31:28His task is now mine.
31:33I go to seek the enemy that escaped us in the north.
31:38Alone.
31:39If I must.
31:42Ah yes, your mystery sigil.
31:45I shared it with the High King.
31:47Then why would-
31:48Because seeing a sigil does not mean you are any closer to finding Sauron.
31:51It is over.
31:53The evil is gone.
31:54Then why is it not gone from in here?
31:58After all you have endured,
32:01it is only natural to feel conflicted.
32:09I am grateful you have not known evil as I have.
32:13But you have not seen what I have seen.
32:15I have seen my share.
32:17You have not seen what I have seen.
32:21Evil does not sleep, Elrond.
32:24It waits.
32:25And in the moment of our complacency,
32:28it blinds us.
32:31Let us say that all is as you fear,
32:34and this enemy is out there somewhere lying in wait,
32:38do you truly believe seeking him out will satisfy you?
32:41That one more orc upon the point of your blade will bring you peace?
32:45If you are wrong-
32:46I am not-
32:46If you are wrong,
32:49will you lead more elves to die in far off lands?
32:53To convince yourself you have done enough,
32:56how many more statues would you add to this path?
32:59No one in history has ever refused the call.
33:03Do so now, it may never come again.
33:05You will linger here,
33:07an outcast,
33:08poisoned in dark whispers and dreams.
33:11And in the West do you think my fate would be better?
33:14Where some would mock the cries of battle in my ears?
33:19You say I have won victory over all the horrors of Middle-earth,
33:25yet you would leave them alive in me,
33:28to take with me, undying, unchanging, unbreaking,
33:35into the land of winterless spring.
33:37Only in the blessed realm can that which is broken in you be healed.
33:43Go there.
33:44Go, and I promise you,
33:47if but a whisper of a rumor of the threat you perceive proves true,
33:51I will not rest until it is put right.
33:55You have fought long enough, Galadriel.
33:59Put up your sword.
34:02Without it, what might it be?
34:04What you have always been.
34:08My friend.
34:23My friend.
34:27My friend.
34:35Hey,
34:37Let's go.
35:10Ah! Poison, more likely.
35:13Poison? By who?
35:15Oh, we know the Unionites.
35:17It's got to go to him.
35:29Oh, dear.
35:32Has it really been a fortnight already?
35:35It has.
35:38Ah, well, a little to report.
35:40It must go around, I'm afraid.
35:42A couple of shabby disputes.
35:43It won't even die something.
35:46Oh, yes.
35:48I had a bit of a thrill in here,
35:49Tuesday last,
35:50with a row over a girl.
35:53His eye was lazy,
35:54hers overactive,
35:55if you take my meaning.
35:58Care for a drink, soldier?
36:00Well, my well is yours, as ever.
36:02And the poisoning?
36:04What poisoning?
36:05The one you were just discussing?
36:07No, no, no, no.
36:08It was but poison grass.
36:10He was twatling about.
36:12The fellow passed through a few days back,
36:14said his grazing's gone rotten.
36:15No, only weeds will grow.
36:17This fellow?
36:19Where was he from?
36:20Uh, didn't say east, I think.
36:22And what day was he here?
36:24Oh, let it go, knife ears.
36:27It's a bloody patch of grass.
36:30The lot you lump us in with died off a thousand years ago.
36:35When are you people gonna let the past go?
36:41Passed this with us all.
36:43Whether we like it or not.
36:45One day,
36:47our true king will return.
36:50And pry us right out from under your pointy boots.
36:54Easy, lad.
36:55Quench the fire.
37:08Come on, lad.
37:12There'll be anything else, then.
37:37Give me a hand.
37:56Halfling seeds.
37:59I've not seen this flower since I was a child.
38:03Where did you find these?
38:05I had to trade with another healer who was passing through.
38:09They crushed the petals to form a cell.
38:11You crushed them?
38:12Gentleman.
38:16Are there haters among your kind?
38:19There are.
38:20But we call them artificers.
38:23Most wounds to our bodies
38:25heal of their own accord,
38:27so it is their labor instead
38:28to render hidden truths as works of beauty.
38:32But the beauty has great power to heal a soul.
38:36And I hope you find our fringe flowers beautiful.
38:46Until next time, then.
38:48Soldier.
38:59Anything to report?
39:02Nothing else of the ordinary.
39:06And the well.
39:08How was it?
39:11Did you draw some water?
39:13We are awaited our hostilities.
39:17Have you considered the consequences I might face if the watch wouldn't work to discover what it is that you're
39:22doing?
39:23I'm afraid I don't take you, really.
39:25It's difficult enough keeping watch over them without having to keep one eye squarely on you.
39:28Or do you think me blind?
39:29No.
39:31I think you talk too much.
39:33And you smell of rotten leaves.
39:35No, I don't.
39:36Yes, you do.
39:44My point is this.
39:47Only twice in known history has a pairing between elves and humans even been attempted.
39:51And on each occasion, it ended in tragedy.
39:53It ended in death.
39:54You need not remind me.
39:57Then why do you persist?
40:00Give me one reason.
40:01Why?
40:02Arondir!
40:03Melod!
40:05The High King has declared the days of war are over.
40:09All the far outposts are being disbanded.
40:13We're leaving.
40:39Taking a last look, hmm?
40:4379 years I've been stationed here.
40:47I suppose I've grown accustomed to it.
40:51And you believe this place was once a barren scrap of rock?
40:55It has changed much, Watchwater.
40:58But the men who live here have not.
41:00The blood of those who stood with Morgoth still darkens their veins.
41:06That was long ago, Watchwater.
41:13What were you before the war?
41:15You grow.
41:16And you shall be returning home to far more than you left.
41:20Honors?
41:22Title?
41:24Your life will begin anew.
41:26But mark this, Arondir.
41:29That for 79 years you've kept watch over the men and women of Tiharad not because of what their ancestors
41:34once did.
41:37But because of who they still are.
41:44And be grateful.
41:47That you need never see them again.
41:48You.
42:00You.
42:26Careful, that's fire root powder.
42:28You have to do it slowly.
42:29Go on, you slow.
42:29We stock your old day.
42:30You're on a boil this morning.
42:32Oh, they slept.
42:34Miles were dancing a proper jig under the floorboards.
42:36Again?
42:37Last three nights, scratching and scraping.
42:43What's one of them doing here?
42:55I heard you were leaving.
42:58Yeah.
43:01Where's the rest of your company?
43:04Most likely searching for me at this very moment.
43:08Then why are you at my home?
43:22Say what you wish to say.
43:24I've said it already.
43:26A hundred times over in every way but words.
43:31Mother.
43:34Mother.
43:35There's a man here for you.
43:44Come on.
43:48You heal animals too?
43:53You could just give her a look.
43:55She's got some sort of a sickness.
43:59What manner of sickness.
44:07It isn't the fever.
44:10And she doesn't appear to have any sores.
44:14Why has she been grazing?
44:15She wanted it east a few days ago.
44:18I think she might have hit something.
44:25What was that?
44:27Squirted out of it.
44:29How far east?
44:30She might have made it as far as Horden.
44:40Where are you going?
44:41Horden's a day's journey.
44:42If I leave now, I can reach it by dusk.
44:44I'm going with you.
44:57Be quick about it.
44:59If he finds Yersinia and knock out, he can't.
45:04Only spotted it by mistake.
45:07I stepped on a lucky board.
45:10So tell me.
45:12Is it true?
45:14About your mum?
45:15Is what true?
45:18Herb Waldry caught herself and one of the pointies.
45:22Mighty sweet back of his well the other day.
45:24Who told you that?
45:25Everybody.
45:27It's a lie.
45:28Maybe that's why your father run off like he done.
45:31My father did not run off.
45:32Then what happened to him?
45:34You don't even know, do you?
45:39Salty rascal's got the king's bounty down there.
45:43This is the real bounty.
45:44This is the real bounty.
46:04Watch it.
46:07Go quick.
46:17Oh, my God.
46:45She has passed beyond my sight.
46:48Galadriel was so certain her search should continue.
46:52We foresaw that, if it had, she might have inadvertently kept alive the very evil she sought to defeat.
47:02Or the same wind that seeks to blow out a fire may also cause it to spread.
47:09Then the shadow she sought.
47:13You believe it does exist.
47:15Set your mind at peace about it.
47:19What you did was right for Galadriel and for Middle-earth.
47:26It's hard to see what is right when friendship and duty are mingled.
47:34Such is the burden of those who lead and those who would seek to.
47:42Galadriel sails to the sunset.
47:44You and I must look to the new sunrise.
47:50To that end.
47:53Are you acquainted with the work of Lord Celebrimbor?
47:57The greatest of Elven smiths, of course.
48:00I've admired his artistry since I was a child.
48:03Why do you ask?
48:04He is about to embark on a new project.
48:06One of singular importance.
48:09And we've decided that you will be working with him.
48:15But I'll allow you to explain the details, Lord Celebrimbor.
48:33First the big people.
48:35Now the stars.
48:38Eyes open when they should be sleeping.
48:44Almost like it.
48:47Like they're watching for something.
48:49Watching for what?
48:51A tongue glass, if you don't mind your own cartwheels.
48:54What is it?
48:55What do you see up there?
48:56Eleanor Brandyfoot with your father's nose and always poking it into trouble.
49:00You are far too curious and meddlesome to have been born at Harford.
49:04Are you quite certain you're not part square?
49:08Satic.
49:09Satic.
49:10Please.
49:11Tell me.
49:15The skies are strange.
49:20Strange.
49:21Strange how?
49:22Glory!
49:23Down that bridge!
49:24On my way!
49:33How familiar are you with the townsfolk of Holden?
49:36Very, I should hope.
49:38I was born there.
49:40Why?
49:42The people of Holden were known for having been especially strong in the loyalty to Morgoth.
49:48What did you just say?
49:53The truth.
49:55I'm talking about my friends.
49:57Close kin.
49:58I know them.
49:59There are good people there.
50:04That's just why I'm here with you.
50:08Instead of the watch, Wolden.
50:11From Wolden.
50:17The only kind touch I've known all my days.
50:21This is love.
50:36The Holden.
50:39The Holden.
50:44The Holden.
50:47I don't know.
51:21I don't know.
51:58I don't know.
52:17I don't know.
53:03I don't know.
53:16I don't know.
53:28I don't know.
53:40I don't know.
54:09But sometimes the lights shine just as brightly reflected in the water as they do in the sky.
54:14I don't know.
54:44I don't know.
55:25I don't know.
55:33I don't know.
55:43I don't know.
55:48I don't know.
56:19I don't know.
