The Battle of Helm's Deep
The Rohirrim, led by Théoden, take refuge in Helm's Deep, a fortress in the White Mountains. They are besieged by a vast army of Saruman's Uruk-hai. The battle is fierce, but at dawn, Gandalf arrives with Erkenbrand and a thousand men, and the Huorns destroy the remaining enemy forces.
