While protecting Nori from a wolf pack, the Stranger's use of magic injures his own arm. As he heals it using conjured ice, Nori accidentally connects to his mind, blasting and frightening her away with a shockwave. In Numenor, Miriel decides to support an expedition to Middle-earth, and Galadriel convinces Halbrand to join it after retelling her battles and losses against Sauron. Before they can leave, Kemen attempts to destroy the expedition ships to help his father Pharazon rise to power, but Isildur prevents him and earns a spot on the expedition crew (he does not implicate Kemen). In Lindon, Gil-galad reveals to Elrond his knowledge of mithril and his intention to use it to extend the existence of the Elves. Elrond admits this discovery to Durin, and they return to Khazad-dûm to try to convince King Durin. In the Southlands, half of the villagers, led by Waldreg, leave Ostirith to accept Adar's surrender offer and join him; Waldreg believes Adar is Sauron. In Ostirith, Theo shows the broken sword to Arondir, who realizes it is a key for turning the Southlands into Sauron's realm of evil. The remaining villagers in the watchtower of Ostirith prepare for battle against the approaching Orc army.
