She defeats the Black Riders at the Ford of Bruinen, but the ride has taken its toll on Frodo. Arwen picks up Frodo and, with Ringwraiths in pursuit, makes for Rivendell with all her might. In introducing Arwen's theme, Shore stresses the dulcet tones of female voices - the characteristic choral sound of the elves. The Annotated Score, of all things, has this to say about the scene:Īrwen encounters Aragorn and the hobbits in the forest. However, in the context of the movie, it would seem that Arwen is praying for the Valar to intercede.

As commenters have noted, Arwen was not originally intended to encounter Frodo in this scene.
