It was unusually late when the Númenoreans got back to their huts. An exhausting day had lain behind them and it showed, most with Kath, who fell asleep even at the same place where the Saucepan Man had been lynched.

In the middle of the night, she heard somebody call her name. – “Wake up, Kath – but nobody was there to be seen for her in the moonlit darkness.

“Who are you?”

“I come with good tidings for you in these evil times.”

“Where are you?”

“I am upon the wall,... looking down on you!”

Kath looked up, and against the moon she saw a dark figure above her and it felt to her as if she could see its glaring eyes under the waving cloak.

“Do you wish to bring evil on me?” she asked frightened.

“On the contrary! I’d like to save you and accord an honourable fate to you.”

“And what shall that be?” Kath asked.

“You shall be sacrificed to the Children of Ulmo!” the figure said complaisantly.

“Never!” she defied, and the figure drew its sword. Seeing the hopelessness of her situation Kath quickly turned and was about to run away, back to the village to find herself help. But the Faithfuls proved smarter than she: the other was already waiting behind her and so she ran into an upraised sword.

Thus Kath passed from this world.

Later that night, the Faithfuls fulfilled the offer they had made to her, and Kath was cut into many pieces and given to the living things of the sea.
