The radio plays a short clip of "The Threat of Mordor," then fades out.
Hello, it's me again, Gorak from Lugburz. I have an urgent message for all servants of the Eye.
Lord Saruman hasn't held his monthly press conference, and has also refused to answer all messages from Lugburz. Higher Up is very bothered and has instructed all forces not to trust any Isengarders. Not like we would have trusted them anyway.
Rumors that the White City will be saved by armies of tiny warriors from the north are treasonous and false. Seriously. Tiny warriors? What have you been drinking?
The third annual Wounded Warriors banquet will be held tomorrow in the Hall of Plunder. The guests of honor this year will be twenty-two orcs crippled in the River City fighting. Barbeque sauce will be provided.
I have just been handed a news update. Let me see . . . ha ha! It's good news! Our mighty armies have taken the causeway forts, and it seems that Captain Faramir has been killed. I know that you're all tired of hearing about Captain Faramir's death, but this has the ring of truth. After all, this is no news report from Higher Up, this comes from one of our own correspondents.
If this is true, then who'll save the White City from our victorious hordes? I will remind our Gondorian listeners that Denethor is a wasted old man. When did he last do anything for his city? And this White Rider character - what do you know about him? He's a wizard. He only cares about you as long as you serve his purposes. Where has he been, anyway, for the last ten years, while you've shed your blood in a hopeless attempt to hold the river?
You can't trust either the Steward or the Wizard. Theoden of Rohan is dead, and his armies will not come to save you. We know that you've lit your little beacons, but no help has come. If you doubt the power of the Dark Lord to destroy you, just look out the window. Even the weather is no match for him.
You have only one hope. Lay down your arms, and your lives will be spared, all except Denethor, the White Wizard, and the rest of the ruling elite. Decide quickly, because our Angmar Project has finally produced a siege weapon so mighty that your gates don't stand a chance.
For our Mordorian listeners, I have an announcement from the Chemical Department. All servants of the Eye are commanded to save leftover bones, animal and human. They are needed for fertilizer.
Healthy slaves closed at thirty-six, beef carcasses at nineteen and a half, and pig iron at twenty-seven. HellForge Industries has failed to meet its spearhead contract, and will be financially dissolved. Its chief officer will also be dissolved.
This is Gorak, signing off - I hope to make my next broadcast from the White Tower itself. Remember, the Eye is watching you!
A short clip of the "Revelation of the Ringwraiths" theme plays.
