That pretty much covers it. I wonder if Sauron had redistributed his recovered dwarf rings to other servants. I sort of assumed that the Mouth of Sauron probably had one. OH MAN - MAJOR EPIPHANY... |

It's possible that there is a seperate place of waiting in the Halls of Mandos for 'deceased' Maiar. As for Saruman, it is briefly hinted at that he created his own ring (similar to but much less... |

I think the role of Radagast is vastly understated in the books. In his role as Yavanna's representative, he seems to have taken on the task of the Istari's chief communications officer. Have you... |
