Jecht watched as Thengise fell to the floor and heard that he was to die. Soldiers came and took Jecht to the prison. He was put into a cell to himself. Three days past, before he heard any news about what was going on outside his cell. Aragorn had ordered him to die by the sword in a public demonstration. Later that day, Thengise came to see him in the guise of a commoner.
Jecht-Thengise, I wish you had not come.
Thengise-Jecht, I love you and I don't think I can bear life with you not in it.
Jecht-Your life must go on, even if mine doesn't. You told me once that I have much to live for, so do you. You're going to have to live for both of us.[he said as he got closer to her] I do not fear death, Thengise. It was my own pride that got me here. Take care of yourself Thengise, and keep an eye on Collette, or she'll wind up here too.[he finished as he kissed her]
Thengise tried to say something back to him but a guard came from behind and pushed her away.
