I have a theory about about Merry'sstabbing of the Witch King. I always sort of thought of the blade not so much as causing physical harm to the wraith as maybe breaking his will power and cleaving throught watever spell held him together. There might be something in the books i took this from, and maybe not. After the wraith's gaurd was down, Eowyn put in her blade to finish things off. Thoughts?
