Re: Man who fotgot his name

1: You missed the point. He was asking how the Mouth could live (and remain &quot;alive&quot;, unlike the Nazgul, which faded) for so long without the will of the Valar.

2: Men don't have the abilty to live as long as they like. Sauron is the only one that would teach him how or do it for him.

3: Wizards aren't Men, bad analogy.

4: He was speaking of the Nazgul as slaves. HerenIstarion is saying that if the Mouth was a slave for 3200 years he wouldn't have been as distinct as he was. The Nazgul all act the same because of Sauron's domination, they are puppets. The Mouth is still his own person. If the Mouth's life was prolonged by Sauron's power he would have died with Sauron, just as the Nazgul did.
