Galhardir who had remained on the ship didn't believe his own ears. The first thing that came to him was the ill news about Carandű's death. He didn't want to believe it, although he knew it was what had happened when he looked at Annű. Annű was obviously devastated, without really accepting the fact that his brother was dead.

Galhardir felt much anger, but most of all sorrow. The two elven brothers had helped him twice since he'd first met them. Carandű was now dead, and he was dead without him, Galhardir, being able to even try giving something in return. The reason he had stayed at the ship was to be sure he was fully recovered. The horrible news that the Corsairs had been waiting for them and attacked had come as a horrible shock that no one had prepared for, nor had they thought something as drastic as this would come as they left the ship with Hilde. Galhardir held on tight to Rodhal, because of the sudden feeling that his knees would fail and he would fall. How had this happened? He didn't understand it. He looked at Rodhal, who had tears in his eyes. Galhardir wasn't sure if the boy shared the same feelings or if he'd even understood what had been said.

"Uncle?" he said. His voice was tearing Galhardir apart as it was full of sorrow and grief.
