Gollum escapes them all
|
Can't Post
|
|
In The Council of Elrond chapter, Legolas says that Gollum appears to have been rescued by from his Elvish captors by a force of orcs. These, with Gollum, are tracked as far as the elves dare towards Dol Gildur.
Any theories about this?
Whose orcs (Saurons? Sarumans? Independents?) and why are they sent to capture Gollum?
Do you think that Gollum then gives the orcs the slip? Or do they release him, and if so then why?
Disclaimers: The words of noWizardme may stand on their heads! I'm often wrong about things, and its fun to be taught more....
Feel free to meddle in the affairs of noWizardMe by agreeing or disagreeing (politely...) with my posts! I may not be subtle, but at least I'm usually slow to anger...

Rescuing Gollum wasn't the intention

Fiasco rather than rescue?

It's only a fiasco

True! Success for any rescue (as opposed to capture or recapture). Fiasco for the elves.//

Lorien is a closed realm.

Mirkwood was always the intended prison, it seems
