Minas Morgul

Nilore · 10-27-2002, 10:13 AM

In the TT, the book it mentions a place called Minas Morgul. Is this where the Morgul Blade was originated. It'd make sense!

I think you, uh, answered your question. Congrats

zavron · 10-29-2002, 07:08 AM

there is a possibility that they could have been made in angbar i suppose but then they should have been called angbar blades?

most likely they were made in minas morgul so i agree

zavron · 10-29-2002, 07:09 AM

Nilore · 10-29-2002, 04:25 PM

I'm sorry, perhaps I've been been hit with a stupid stick, but what were the "Morgul blades", and what is "angbar"?

Lefty Scaevola · 10-29-2002, 08:27 PM

A morgul blade is what the chief of the nazgul used on Frodo on Weathertop.. Morgul means sorcery or sorcerous. Thus its use for the black magic weapon and for the Tower of Sorcery. The balde is not named for the tower; both names just incorperate the word for sorcery. Angbar appears to be a typo for Angmar,

Finglas - LOL

Now I'm curious if "Morgul-blade" is a movie term only, or if it is also in the book. *looks thru book* Ah, here it is -

Seems to be a mixture of Angband and Angmar. At least that's the way the voices in my head explain it to me.

thingol · 10-31-2002, 05:58 AM

zavron · 10-31-2002, 06:10 AM
