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.
"Spirits in the shape of hawks and eagles flew ever to and from his halls; and their eyes could see to the depths of the seas, and pierce the hidden caverns beneath the world."

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!)
If there was anything that depressed him more than his own cynicism, it was that quite often it still wasn't as cynical as real life.
