In Numenor, Isildur and Elendil get the ship to visit Middle-Earth. As Isildur faces rejection, he requests to be chosen as the volunteer to go. However, unconvinced with his words, Elendil denies his plead as he feels Isildur is not that committed to himself.

Ken sneaks on one of the Ship’s boards and tries to leak alcohol to start a fire. Isildur realizes Kemen’s efforts and hassles along with him. Although, Kemen’s lantern drops suddenly and causes fire on the boat. He is left stuck on the board, seeing which Isildur rescues him.
