<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>Funny, I loved that touch. I never felt Wormtongue wanted to see the complete destruction of Rohan. He just wanted to reap the benefits of being in league with the man in charge. When he saw Saruman's forces he caught of glimps of Saruman's vision and knew that it included the destruction of everything he ever knew.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE> That would be a nice touch if that's what he <I>was</I> thinking. But I don't think he minded having Rohan wiped out, after all, he gets his 'share' of the 'treasure' once all the men are dead. Perhaps he had hoped to rule Edoras? I don't know, but it seems unlikely he'd be sad that Rohan was to be destroyed.
