Re: just too old mouth

I have to weigh my words more carefully with you sticklers. I meant, is there any reason why it could not be so, aside from that single reference to his--er, my--length of service, for the purposes of a piece of fan fiction, for example. And I say aside from that reference, because Tolkien said it is told before he goes into that whole spiel about who the Mouth of Sauron was purported to be. Naturally, if there were more than one, because Mouth of Sauron was a title borne by successive heralds of the Dark Lord, those who passed the tales of his cruelty down through the years could easily believe that they were telling of a single long-lived individual. Obviously there is no evidence to support the theory, but is there any to refute it?

You mention &quot;The Emperor's Hand&quot;. What is that in reference to?
