    The point is still that the rings whereabouts was best left unknown to as many people as possible. Just flying into Mordor on an eagle would have essentially just delivered the ring to Sauron for free. The eagles could have been involved elsewhere, sure, but the story is the story.

      why … oh.

      no further questions.

      No, fuck this shit, you’re on your own old man.
