I agree with Estelyn on that one.

We forget the whole concept that the 9 aslo hold rings. Perhaps the rings they hold give them this kind of power? afterall, they are supposed to be the "9 Kings of mortal men" dont you think the rings they hold on to would give them the power to attract or repel any mortal? Its just my opinion

That proves again, Hobbits are not as we understand them to be, all hobbits are more complex than they seem
