Re: Whoa!

Flying could simply mean it fled the scene in a quick manner.After all,Gandalf said
<blockquote>Quote:<hr> "Fly,you fools!"<hr></blockquote>
when ordering the Company to get out of Moria.
But this is not proof that Balrogs didn't have wings.Maybe some did and some didn't,as was mentioned here earlier. After all some dragons had wings (Smaug) while others did not (Glaurung).

Those who will defend authority against rebellion must not themselves rebel. </p>Edited by: <A HREF=http://www.barrowdowns.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_profile&u=00000125>Inziladu n</A> at: 3/14/01 5:43:19 pm
