Quem faz aquele barulho estridente, o Nazgûl ou os animais em que eles montam?
Quem faz aquele barulho estridente, o Nazgûl ou os animais em que eles montam?
Livro 1, cap.4:
"A long-drawn wail came down the wind, like the cry of some evil and lonely creature. It rose and fell, and ended on a high piercing note. Even as they sat and stood, as if suddenly frozen, it was answered by another cry, fainter and further off, but no less chilling to the blood."
Livro 1, cap.12:
"...and from the Riders came a terrible cry, such as Frodo had heard filling the woods with horror in the Eastfarthing far away."
Livro 2, cap.1:
"‘Because they are real horses; just as the black robes are real robes that they wear to give shape to their nothingness when they have dealings with the living.’
‘Then why do these black horses endure such riders? All other animals are terrified when they draw near, even the elf-horse of Glorfindel..."
‘Because these horses are born and bred to the service of the Dark Lord in Mordor. Not all his servants and chattels are wraiths!"
É o chamado dos próprios Nazgûl. Eles estavam montando cavalos normais até perdê-los no Ford de Bruinen. As coisas voadoras ... não aparecem até muito mais tarde na história.
Resposta curta: Devem ser os Nazggl, não os animais mortos, porque ouvem o som no Condado, quando os Nazgull apenas têm cavalos.
