With reference to the many queries about the laserbeam/flame/whatever bursting from Minas Morgul, I think this is a slightly amp-up version of something that does appear in the books.<P>To signal the start of the War, Sauron sends up a great burst of flame from Mount Doom.<P> <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> And Minas Morgul answered. There was a flare of livid lightnings: forks of blue flame springing up from the tower and from the encircling hills into the sullen clouds (THE STAIRS OF CIRITH UNGOL - THE TWO TOWERS) <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>Granted, its not exactly as it sounds in the book, but my bet is that the blue-green light is the answering signal from Minas Morgul, after which the Witch-King marches forth.<p>[ October 03, 2003: Message edited by: kharank ]
