One Thing in Common - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I accept that answer. I was thinking that they saved someone who was their rival for someone's love/ attentions/ regard, but that is very close to your answer as there certainly is the jealousy-aspect.

The thing that I originally had in mind was that their rival tried to save them right before they died, but then, a while ago, I discovered this was not true in Andróg's case (unless you're stretching a lot). So I changed it to that what you said, although it makes the timeline-thing a little illogical. I'm not content with myself

.

Anyway, like I said, that is the correct answer, so Legate, please take the thread.

That happens

Okay, now what the heck am I supposed to post as a question?

What about this, in hope not to be too vague:

What do Boromir and the Nazgul have in common?

And to avoid confusion, I could add that right now I cannot think of anyone else who would have that thing common with them (and I really hope I am not mistaken so that I'm not confusing you, but I'd say you can take for granted now that it's right. If it's wrong it will show sooner or later

).
