Objective 1
Tatháta is beside the Heirsworn ship Phazanêg.
- Tatháta: 'The Heirsworn ship moored alongside the dock here is called Phazanêg, "The Last Heir."
- 'You must see that this name comes true, and put an end to he who rallies the Heirsworn! My business is with Nakási.'
Objective 2
Aphadaer has sought the protection of Balakhâd for the death of King Elessar.
- Aphadaer, Heirsworn says, "Balakhâd! I have slain the King of Gondor!"
- Aphadaer, Heirsworn says, "You must protect me!"
- Balakhâd, Son of Balakhôr says, "Is this true?"
Objective 3
- Tell them no, the King will live

Objective 4
- Remain alert for any Heirsworn treachery
Remain alert for any treachery on the part of the Heirsworn.
- Balakhâd, Son of Balakhôr says, "Do you think to deceive me?"
- Aphadaer, Heirsworn says, "No, my lord! Please, let me explain!"
- Aphadaer, Heirsworn says, "I will prove my loyalty to the Heirs of Castamir!"
- Tatháta says, '"'My business is with Nakási, and no other! These two are yours!"
- Aphadaer, Heirsworn says, "<name>, please, let me explain!"
Objective 5
- Prepare for battle and speak to Aphadaer
Aphadaer has decided to prove his loyalty to Balakhâd and the Heirs of Castamir by facing you in battle.
- Aphadaer, Heirsworn: 'Always have I been loyal to the Heirs of Castamir, <name>! I gave them whatever tidings I could of Elessar's plans, and the woman Ioreth proved a font of information! Indeed... it was most challenging to determine what news could be of use amidst all of her ramblings!
- 'I lost contact with Maethon shortly before the King departed for Outer Gondor, and received no further word from the other supporters of the Heirs; I had to decide what actions to take on my own. That stayed my hand for a time, but always I sought for some means of separating the King from his defenders while we ventured in Anfalas and Pinnath Gelin.
- 'But now that Balakhâd has assumed his rightful mantle, I can die knowing I have done what I could to support his rise! If I must die, then I will die for him! Praise the memory of Castamir, and all his heirs!'
Objective 6
- Remain on your guard as you confront the leadership of the Song
Remain on your guard against those who command the Song of Waves and Wind.
- Aphadaer, Heirsworn says, "I prove my loyalty in death!"
- Balakhâd, Son of Balakhôr says, "I asked you once before to stand beside me, <name>."
- Balakhâd, Son of Balakhôr says, "You must know the destruction of Gondor is necessary!"
- Balakhâd, Son of Balakhôr says, "The ancient Elves... they will kill us all!"
- Rothog says, "Your time has come, Balakhâd."
- Balakhâd, Son of Balakhôr says, "Wait! If I surrender... if you grant me mercy..."
- Nakási Wave-reaper says, "No!"
- Rothog says, "Nakási!"
- Nakási Wave-reaper says, "When I sailed to this place, I knew I would never leave it."
- Nakási Wave-reaper says, "But first Balakhâd would die."
- Nakási Wave-reaper says, "I needed the loyalty of his men if I was to have my vengeance upon Gondor."
- Nakási Wave-reaper says, "But that vengeance was incomplete for so long as any Heir of Castamir still drew breath."
- Nakási Wave-reaper says, "Now I can tell Tumúldo he is avenged."
Objective 7
Nakási Wave-reaper has accomplished her mission, and she stares at you with contentment.
- Nakási: 'You cannot defeat me, <name>, not even with Rothog and Tatháta by your side. My victory is already complete, for I have avenged Tumúldo and satisfied my quest. Gondor burns, as I knew it must. My enemies, all of my enemies, have suffered for the hurts they caused me. Now I am beyond all hurt.
- 'You have already lost, no matter the outcome of this battle.'
Objective 8
The battle is over.
- Nakási Wave-reaper says, "I must tell... Tumúldo..."
- Rothog says, "It is over."
