“I wonder what they’ve done to Jewel,” thought the King. Presently the crowd of Beasts broke up and began going way in different directions. Some passed close to Tirian. hey looked at him as if they were both frightened and orry to see him tied up but none of them spoke. Soon they ad all gone and there was silence in the wood.

The sun went down and it began to be twilight.
