Ratbag is horrified at this fate, and deserts Talion.Įltariel's investigations yield fruit, and Talion is able to find and confront some Ringwraiths directly two are revealed to be kings of men tempted by Sauron and Celebrimbor, who aided Sauron-in his guise as Annatar-more willingly and for longer than he'd admitted to Talion. Talion and Celebrimbor break Bruz's mind and leave him deranged. He gathers more forces, retakes the fortress, and after chasing Bruz throughout Mordor he finally runs the clever Bruz to ground-using the power of domination to go further than simple control. Talion's unique status keeps him from truly dying, and he revives soon enough humiliated but thirsting for revenge. Talion's forces repeal an attempt by Sauron's orcs to capture the fortress, but Bruz-who had either faked his domination or overcome it-betrays and slays him in front of the entire army, claiming the fort and its forces for himself. He and Celebrimbor have themselves been exploring the potential of their bond, finding more powers and applications. Meanwhile, the Nazgul have become more active and are using some means to dominate and control orcs Eltariel spies on the Nazgul to attempt to understand their weaknesses and sometimes relays information to Talion. After a successful siege Talion and Bruz confront to overlord who turns out to be Ratbag, the snivelling orc who'd been Talion's willing pawn in the first game, who is still alive. He dominates a champion olog-an orc-troll hybrid of sorts-named Bruz and begins gathering the troops and resources needed to lay siege to and thereby claim some of Sauron's fortresses. With the power of the Ring, Talion and Eltariel are able to lay claim to Mordor.Įlsewhere, he arrives at Nurn. Talion and Eltariel fight them back, but Shelob is exhausted and weakened, and surrenders the New Ring to Talion. Talion and Eltariel flee as the Witch-King settles into his new seat of power-the newly christened Minas Morgul.Įventually, Sauron learns that Shelob is plotting treachery against him and sends Nazgul to kill her. She does not wholly trust Talion and his bond with Celebrimbor, but accepts them as an ally of convenience and preferable to Sauron. She wields some portion of Galadriel's own power of light and she can use it to disrupt the workings of Sauron and his creatures. Before being corrupted by the Witch-King Talion is rescued by Eltariel, an elf assassin connected to Lady Galadriel and sent to hinder Sauron's ascension. The city is eventually lost through Lord Castamir's betrayal, and Talion attempts to retrieve the Palantir with no success. When the Witch King and the Nazgul come to raid Minas Ithil, Talion stays to help. Celebrimbor advises Talion against staying with the Gondorians, but the gravewalker refuses to leave his kin. He kills an orc captain with the help of Idril, Lord Castamir's daughter. The gravewalker travels to Minas Ithil to retrieve the Palantir, but sees the fortress being attacked. Shelob turns into a human form and forces Talion to trade the Ring for Celebrimbor. Talion seeks him out and eventually tracks the Bright Lord. At the beginning of the story, Celebrimbor is captured by Shelob, the spider of Cirith Ungol. The player continues the story of the ranger Talion and the spirit of the elf lord Celebrimbor, who shares Talion's body, as they forge a new Ring of Power to amass an army to fight against Sauron.
