Yes, I thought about it too... but since even she doesn't mention it anywhere, I guess not (lucky her, btw).

Okay... hope this is at least somewhat good...

Yavanna => Bolg

And I want links based only on what is really explicitely stated in the books, not "this one and this one might have probably met..."

And, try to make it in four (including these two).

Yavanna -- Radagast -- Beorn -- Bolg ?

Congratulations, bright-minded! Please take the thread.

Ungoliant => Shelob

I found a solution to this in a total of 5 steps, so please use at most 5. If you can come up with less, go for it!

Ungoliant - Morgoth - Sauron - Shelob?

Are you sure that Sauron and Shelob actually met? I know Sauron knew Shelob guarded the pass but I don't remember reading that they ever met each other.

I'm not sure either. I guess it's nowhere mentioned.

What about the following:
Ungoliant - Morgoth - Sauron - Shagrat - Shelob?

I don't know for sure if Sauron and Shagrat actually met, but maybe we can assume so? Of course it depends on how many secretaries Sauron had.
