![]() Besides, if Sauron would not have created the Ring, he would have been exposed by the Three soon enough. The Three vs. No-Ring-Sauron would probably have been his downfall (at least for that age). I... |

![]() The Eagle in question could ofcourse have tossed the ring in the fire himself, either with or without a hobbit attached. Don't flame me for this plz, I'm in a particularly evil mood today |

![]() My guess is that they were just too busy... seeking ring-lore is not an easy job, like rallying free ppl to stand up to Sauron. Maybe only Radagast had the time, but he had birds/beasts around him... |

![]() But wouldn't simply obeying Frodo create a conflict with their errand? They were ordered to kill/overpower Frodo. I can't think of any minor command (of Frodo) that would not conflict. Jellinek |
