<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> Someone on another thread complained that after Gandalf's "death" in FotR and Aragorn's "death" in TTT, Frodo's "death" in Shelob's Lair is going to lose its impact. I thought that made good sense. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>As my papa used to say, never believe they're dead until you can smell the body rotting. I can honestly say I never thought Frodo was dead when I first read RotK. Just like I never thought Gandalf died in Moria. You just kind of know these characters will pull through in one way or another.<P>I personally think the warg/fall sequence was as much to include more of Eowyn as it was to include Arwen. Remember when the Riders broke off from the main group and Eowyn begs to join? Of course Theoden says no because her responsibility is with the refugees. Well I think that makes up somewhat for her even going to Helm's Deep, because she wasn't supposed to be there either, was she?
