well,,actually i don't even think that sauron and shelob had an alliance. i just think that they their own parties goin on and if shelob got a meal out of it,that's cool. and if sauron got some sport out of it,,,that's cool too. but frankly i don't think shelob cared at all for sauron's existence except for the fact that she got an occasional meal from it. and can anyone tell me where shelob roamed before she settled down in torech ungol?
