Last March of the Ents
"We marched... marched... marched to war... to Isengard..."

Background

The Ents have come to Isengard to remind Saruman of the danger he has risked with his plans.

Objective 1

You have come to the ring of Isengard with as many of the Ents that responded to your call. The time has come to remind Saruman of what he has forgotten!

Quickbeam: 'That was a rousing march, Treebeard! We have come to the ring of Isengard sooner than I thought we would, and our business with the Wizard waits before us!'
Quickbeam peers at the hobbits clinging to your upper branches.
'Hold on, little ones! Keep a good grip, and do not fall!'

Objective 2

  • Protect Quickbeam and the other Ents from Saruman's forces
  • Quickbeam must not be defeated
Quickbeam says, "This way! We will smash the Wizard's walls!"
Quickbeam says, "Saruman does not know we approach. He will learn it soon!"
Quickbeam says, "Strike the wall, my friends! Fangorn and I will keep you undamaged!"
Quickbeam says, "Saruman's army has departed, but some Orcs remain."
Quickbeam says, "Saruman's supply of Orcs runs low!"
Quickbeam says, "Hoom, boom, bring it down!"
Quickbeam says, "Yes, yes!"
Quickbeam says, "This way, Fangorn!"
Quickbeam says, "Bring it down!"
Quickbeam says, "Seize and grasp, hew the stone!"
Quickbeam says, "This way, Fangorn!"
Quickbeam says, "Look! The gate cannot stand against the might of the Ents!"
The Ents have torn down the gate that gives entrance to the Ring of Isengard.

Objective 3

  • Talk to Quickbeam in front of the gate to Isengard
  • Quickbeam must not be defeated

The Ents have torn down the gate that gives entrance to the Ring of Isengard.

Quickbeam: 'I will gather the rest of our people, Fangorn, while you press forward through the main gate into Isengard! I will meet up with you beyond the gate!'

Objective 4

  • Pass through the ruined gate of Isengard and defeat Saruman's forces
  • Quickbeam must not be defeated

The Ents have smashed open the gate to Isengard, and now you should proceed into the ring.

Hoom, boom! The gate of Isengard could not hold us back!
We were positively... hoom-hom... hasty!

Objective 5

  • The Ents have been driven mad by the fires of Saruman! His evil must be washed away!
  • Quickbeam must not be defeated

Saruman has fought back with flame and smoke!

Saruman had weapons of his own.
Saruman fought with smoke and with fire.
We paid him back with water.

Objective 6

  • Survey your handiwork and greet the newcomer
  • Quickbeam must not be defeated

The Ents have diverted the river and flooded the Ring of Isengard. Their purpose: to wash it clean of Saruman's filth.

Not long after, one of his servants returned.
Gríma Wormtongue says, "Get back! Get away from me!"
Gríma Wormtongue: 'What has happened here? You... you have worked some mischief...'
The little man's eyes dart left and right, taking in as much of the devastation as he can.
'What has happened to Saruman? I... bore messages for him from the King, but it seems they are no longer necessary...'
He turns to go, but you stop him. It is plain he served the Wizard and was complicit in his designs. They deserve each other's company.

Objective 7

  • Saruman's servant has gone to join his master in the tower
  • Quickbeam must not be defeated

Saruman's servant has gone to join his master in the tower.

Gríma Wormtongue says, "But... but I cannot swim!"
Gríma Wormtongue says, "Oh! It's cold!"
I set a watch upon the tower.
Saruman will work no further harm.
