[img]smilies/eek.gif[/img] Damn! So much to read......Well...I confess - I have not read all posted replys so l hope for forgivenes incase of repeating somethin' allready written.
I will try not to write too much.I agree that Gimli could be a ring bearer but considering pride of the dwarfs do you think he would take any company of men or elves not to menchion hobbits in this quest (try reading "There and back again or hobbit" to find out abot dwarf character)?Actually no hobbits would wish to go for if Frodo is not the ring bearer than he has no nothin' to do in this "trip" to Mt. Doom so Sam would not have a master to follow and nor would Merry and Pippin go .
And you can never trust a dwarf.They are cunning.Why should a dwarf go anywhere if he can hide the One Ring in a deep and secret cave where no Eye of Sauron could find it?
And : even if Gimli would have taken the same way to Mordor as Frodo did , I agree he would killed Gollum at any chance that means : hov would a dwarf or even more of them cross the Dead Marshes without somebody to show the way?
Nobody can kill a Nazgūl .They can only kill you.
And the final statement : I am satisfied with the ring bearer chosen by J.R.R.Tolkien for the book is interesting this way =)
P.S.In the end this looks like an essay to me even if I tried to write laconic . [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]
