In their euphory they plunder and defile everything, from the temples and the palaces to the humblest house. They look like demons escaped from a forgotten divine jail. The air is filled with the cries of the women and children are mixed with, and drowned by, the victorious shouts of the invaders. The bodies of the defenders, their sacrifices ultimately vain, are littering the ground. The city is destroyed, the holiest sanctuary of all is broken. A new power is rising! Its victory is at hand! This night, the land will be stained with the blood of Rohan!
