'This messenger was named Khôltekh, and he claimed that the Kindred of the Coins had overthrown the servants of Sauron who ruled in Umbar. Now they name it a Free City, and seek allies to defend themselves from those who preferred the old order of things... and from Gondor, it must be said.

'It was a proposal of peace and friendship that Khôltekh brought to me. I do not wish to become involved in the affairs of Umbar, so while I did not immediately refuse, nor did I give him the enthusiastic agreement he desired. I sent him on his way, but if he was disappointed he did not show it when he departed. That was a fortnight ago, and he is likely back in Umbar by now.

'But we have spoken now for such a time that my throat is parched and my eyes weary. Accept a guest room and remain here for the night. There is no need for you to depart as speedily as did Khôltekh, after all. A room will be provided for you on the eastern side of the fortress, King Elessar, and I trust your companions will take their rest in comfort. What say you to this?'
