[He wants to reply that no, he won't run until she does too (unless she is dead, that is, then there would be no reason to stay). But she is concentrating before he can, and so he waits, eyes flitting forth and back between her and Morgoth and his soldiers.
He wants to ask what she is doing, how he could be a trick of the ship - an illusion? But he ...looking at his soldiers battling the terrifying figure, he doesn't look unreal at all. Still, if Galadriel is sure - if she is sure, she is probably right. And then things are that way and he isn't real. But he is still terrifying, and even illusions can hurt you if they are this physically there, so he doesn't call his soldiers back and stays ready to run.]
