If you couldn't careless, congratulations. You have managed to send lengthy replies even though you didn't careless. Likening characters & past events to the LOTR is all about opinions, where often there is no definitive answer. If there was, then there would be no point in most threads on this website existing. Most of Tolkien's work appears to show ambiguity in order to stimulate interest.
