Calentoliel had planned to strike out at the beast immediately, but instead she found herself crouched down in fear. The beast had brought back memories of pain and death. It had made her head throb once again and wonder why she was here. The beast had frightened Calentoliel so much, she believed she perhaps would have done nothing to help the others if it was not for Olo.

He shook Calentoliel hard, repeating her name over and over.
"We have to do something to help," he told her. "They are losing the battle."
Calentoliel looked up at the hobbit, then at the others to see what he said was true. She looked back at Olo and realized that Rothalle was not near.
The elf stood up and looked around frantic.
"Where is Rothalle?" she asked. "Where is my sister? Has the beast taken her?"
Olo shook his head. "She has disappeared, but the beast does not have her. But Rothalle is not whom we should worry for." The hobbit pointed back at the battle that was taking placing.
"What do we do?" he asked. "How do we help?" Olo burst into tears.
Calentoliel knelt down and looked at the hobbit.
"Don't cry, Olo," she said, wiping away his tears. She hugged him tight, filling the hobbit and herself with a new reassurance. "Stand next to Faye and attack the Black Beast with any weapon you can get a hold of; a knife, rocks, anything. It may not seem like much, but any sort of help makes a difference. But Olo, you must be careful, all right?"
Olo nodded, sniffing. "I will go and I will be careful," he said before leaving Calentoliel to join Faye and the others.

Calentoliel stared at the Black Beast, pushing all her fear and doubts aside. She allowed all her anger and rage to build up inside her, along with her new found confidence. When she thought she could hold it no longer, Calentoliel let out her anger and rage and began to sing.
