Until I get permission, results will not contain the full dialogue.

00:08:56 00:08:59 unnamed We should attack Mordor from the north.
00:08:59 00:09:02 unnamed We enter here, between the Ered Lithui and the Ephel Arnen.
00:09:02 00:09:05 unnamed It would be wiser to attack Adar from the east.
00:09:06 00:09:08 Gil-galad What of the whereabouts of Sauron?
00:09:08 00:09:13 unnamed Our spies indicate that Sauron was last seen traveling into Mordor.
00:09:13 00:09:17 unnamed We believe he intends to supplant Adar and claim his armies.
00:09:17 00:09:19 unnamed If we move swiftly,
00:09:19 00:09:22 unnamed we may be able to crush two spiders with one boot.
00:09:22 00:09:24 Gil-galad And what says the Commander of the Northern Armies?
00:09:25 00:09:27 Gil-galad Galadriel?
00:09:30 00:09:33 Galadriel Um, we should send ships up the Anduin,
00:09:34 00:09:37 Galadriel invade Mordor from the west.
00:09:42 00:09:43 Gil-galad See to the preparations.
00:09:52 00:09:54 Gil-galad It does not take the eye of an eagle
00:09:54 00:09:57 Gil-galad to see your thoughts have flown far afield.
00:09:57 00:09:59 Gil-galad What troubles them?
00:10:01 00:10:03 Galadriel Sauron may well have traveled to Mordor,
00:10:05 00:10:07 Galadriel but we cannot be certain that is where he remains.
00:10:09 00:10:11 Gil-galad What makes you say that?
00:10:12 00:10:13 Galadriel Sauron...
00:10:15 00:10:17 Galadriel sees himself not as master of a barren waste,
00:10:18 00:10:20 Galadriel but of all Middle-earth.
00:10:23 00:10:26 Galadriel He seeks to rule it not only through conquest,
00:10:26 00:10:31 Galadriel but by bending the minds and wills of all its peoples to his own.
00:10:31 00:10:33 Galadriel And for that, he needs not armies...
00:10:35 00:10:36 Galadriel but Rings.
00:10:37 00:10:40 Galadriel And he cannot craft them without Celebrimbor.
00:10:40 00:10:45 Gil-galad Sauron is alone, without army or ally.
00:10:46 00:10:49 Gil-galad Eregion is protected by two rivers
00:10:50 00:10:55 Gil-galad with miles of curtain wall of dwarven stone, ten-foot thick.
00:10:56 00:11:01 Gil-galad Rest assured, Celebrimbor and the secrets of his craft
00:11:02 00:11:03 Gil-galad are safe.
