Youre right, Lost One... Maybe the Gray Havens would not prove a safe haven if the Corsairs of Umbar were ruling in Gondor's shores...

Well... I think that the attack on Minas Tirith was to conquer, since it was the attack on Osgiliath the one that Sauron used to prove Denethor's awareness.

Maybe the elves at Alqualonde would have to come an rescue the remaining elves... because otherwise it would be a massacre... And Sauron would rejoice in the butchering of Galadriel, Elrond & Co....
