Hot, crispy nice hobbit is right; the Haradrim and the Easterlings would have taken any opportunity to fight against Gondor and Rohan, even if it meant siding with Sauron. I suppose they figured... |

*reads through the posts* Did I start something? Hehe. I think, returning back to the original question, that Finwe and Kransha were right; I think it's most logical to say that the disfigured... |

I seem to remember a part in the Silmarillion (at the very end of, I believe, the Elves' account of the Valar, but I can't be postive of that--I just know it was the one before the last paragraph on... |

Finwe! *hug* Thank you! *smacks my forehead* I can't believe I completely forgot about that. Minas Morgul = Minas Ithil = The Tower of the Moon. *sigh* I'll get it together eventually. |

As far as I remember, Elves are fully mature (i.e. reach the forms they are seen with for a long time) by the end of their 100th or 200th year. Of course, while I used to know this, I'm bound to be... |

What would be the significance in showing this, though? Could the eagle have been a spy for Mordor, sort of like the Crebain? |
