| ===Summary===
| |
| King [[Theoden]], [[Gandalf]] the white rider, [[Aragorn]], [[Legolas]], [[Erkenbrand]], [[Eomer]], [[Gimli]] and the men of [[Rohan]] all gather beside a stream. When Theoden asks Gandalf about his wizardry over the trees, Gandalf laughs and tells them that it has not been his doing. He asks them to come with him to [[Isengard]] if they wish to know more about the trees.

| After resting, the men set forth again. They come to [[Orthanc]], the citadel of [[Saruman]] at Isengard. They are surprised to find that [[Treebeard]] and his [[Ents]] have destroyed the citadel, and that Saruman and [[Wormtongue]] have hidden themselves away, guarded by none other than [[Meriadoc Brandybuck|Merry]] and [[Peregrin Took|Pippin]]. Theoden, who is anxious to see Treebeard, says good-bye to the [[Hobbits]] and accompanies Gandalf to the Northern wall.
