Re: The Wolves that attacked the Fellowship

True, he was Lord of the Werewolves, but presumably even werewolves have bodies (I decline to believe that JRRT would require the use of silver or a stake through the heart, if I'm not mixing preternatural creatures, to dispatch a ME werewolf).

I'm thinking, perhaps, that Sauron was also the Necromancer, controlling the spirits of the dead and the like. Spirits, unlike werewolves, would not have bodies.

were kindled clear, and waxing bright
shone like stars that in the North
above the reek of earth leap forth." </p>
