Third Person
"Helm's Deep has but one weakness. It's outer wall is solid rock for except for a small culvert in space, which is little more than a drain." Gríma says
Saruman pours explosives into a metallic ball.
"How? How can fire undo stone? What kind of device can break down a wall?"Gríma asks
Gríma moves a candle close to the ball, but it stopped by Saruman.
"If the wall is breached, Helm's Deep will fall." Saruman says
"Even if it is breached, it would take a number beyond reckoning — thousands — to storm the keep." Gríma tells him
"Tens of thousands." Saruman replies
"But my lord there is no such force."Gríma says
They walk to the balcony of the tower Orthanc and Gríma looks in awe at the sheer number of Uruk-hai warriors. A horn sounds and the army cheers.
"A new power is rising. Its victory is at hand." Saruman calls
The warriors cheer.
"This night, the land will be stained with the blood of Rohan! March to Helm's Deep! Leave none alive!"Saruman says "To war! There will be no dawn for Men."
"NO! NO!" Lyra screams in terror, crying, fearing for her mate and friends
"Shut up witch! You will join them eventually" Saruman says slapping her across the face
