Bump!

ETA: Here is the quote to put it at the top of this page:

He doesn't want to see them. He doesn't want that.

Third age?

Yup, third age.

Was the "he" in the sentence Maia?

Post by **Jude** » Wed Aug 18, 2021 9:27 pm

No. Very much no.

Hobbit, or their ilk?

I'm still open to answering questions...

Is “he” Frodo?

Post by **Jude** » Tue Aug 24, 2021 12:12 am

No, but Frodo was present.

Is "he" Gollum?

Is the speaker Gollum?

Post by **Jude** » Tue Aug 24, 2021 11:29 am

Yes to both!

Post by **Alatar** » Tue Aug 24, 2021 11:52 am

Was "he" changed from "We"?

Post by **Jude** » Tue Aug 24, 2021 12:28 pm

No, "he" is in the original.

Post by **Alatar** » Tue Aug 24, 2021 4:18 pm

Dead Marshes?

Post by **Jude** » Tue Aug 24, 2021 4:26 pm

After that...

Post by **Alatar** » Tue Aug 24, 2021 5:02 pm

Hmmm. Shelob related?

Post by **Jude** » Tue Aug 24, 2021 5:04 pm

No, they haven't met Shelob yet.

Edit: "them" doesn't refer to Shelob, if that's what you meant.

Is that when Faramir caught Gollum by the pool? (And did NOT beat him up!)
