[Rune Son of Bjarne]

"Iarwain, you think that I spoke words of hypocricy earlier? But hypocricy demands a false decleration of belife and in my defence of Olorin there was no falseness, that should be clear. I may not have done what I should to protect him and it may indeed seem convenient that I now declare that I feared this might happen, but it is the truth and does not in any way conflct with what I stated earlier! I do regret not speaking clearer in his defence and even though I feared he would fall victime to our insecurity, even I cannot see all ends and wrongly thought that it would suffice to say that I did not think him a traitor."

Galadriel once again fell silent and thought back on previouse events and the grave and almost unforgivable mistakes she had made earlier on the journey.
