- Galadriel shouts, "Such pain that she could no longer bear to live in this Middle-earth."

Objective 4
Elrond would like to speak with you about what has transpired.
You should talk to Elrond.
- Elrond: 'Being in this place rekindles the pain I felt at my wife's departure. But I will see Celebrían again in the Undying Lands; Arwen will not. I hope this has brought her some peace. She follows in my brother's footsteps, for the love of one of his line. My heart breaks and wells with pride all at once.
- 'I must thank you for the part you played in this, <name>. We were unaware such a powerful foe resided in these ruins, and Baradal might have perished had you not been here. Arwen would have blamed herself had that happened.
- 'Baradal has been eager to prove herself. I fear she will consider this incident a failure and lose faith in her abilities. Many of those in her position would have seen their valour fail; reassure her of that, if you can. She is dear to our family, and I do not wish her to mired in self-doubt.
- 'I believe we are done here. Let us find a place to heal Baradal's injuries.'
Completed
- Elrond: 'Come, let us be on our way.'
