@qviknwess0n @heyguysitsmecg @misterminsoo The DNA of this style probably goes back to Nerdwriter1, but he's a pro compared to these overseasoned word salads.
@legoodman95@bfryereplyguy@TheNextMazer Huh, I never noticed that somehow. They did meet on the road back to Rivendell, very briefly, but that wasn't too much earlier.
@legoodman95@bfryereplyguy@TheNextMazer That's fair. I will add that Saruman himself says that Frodo has grown (and how much he hates him lol). But yeah, it is in line with his character.
@bfryereplyguy@legoodman95@TheNextMazer And Frodo has grown in that regard, from a certain perspective. He went from wishing that Bilbo had killed Gollum, to trying very hard to find a peaceful/redemptive solution to the Scouring. He even convinced Saruman to leave peacefully, and then Grima stabbed him.
@coop92968@DanKretzer@TheNextMazer To be fair, Aragorn's arc started way before the LotR book series. He was going through the main part of his heroic arc 40-60 years earlier and LotR is just the final act for him.
