well I would also like to say what a nice sig you have, but shall I take a number and wait?
The fell beasts are extraordinary creatures I must say, very huge and very scary. I especially enjoyed it when the Nazgul and fell beasts swooshed down onto Minas Tirith and wrecked the catapults of Gondor.
at Osgiliath with the Withcking talking to the head orc (forget his name, smorg? lol sp?) the thing looks huge and when it breaths it sort of scared me
Discos - yes, a serious post from a serious man
Well...they have reins. LOL..π And I also think that while the Fell Beasts were growing, they already were familiar with their Masters (Nazgul) and trust them up to the very end *sniff* . Maybe the Nazgul made sure that the Fell Beasts are accustomed and attached to them all their lives. The Beasts were bred anyway to be their steeds. π
There is one thing about the Nazgul that I don't get. At Minas Tirth, the witch king says to Eowyn, "Don't get in front of the Nazgul and his prey." I highly doubt that the Witch King wants to eat Theoden. This made me believe that the fell beast were called the Nazgul. But, it's pretty clear the the Ringwraiths are the Nazgul. I'm just wondering if anyone could clarify this.
The "prey" thing could work as a double-meaning word. π
It could work as a "prey" as in the food of the fell beast, but we all know that The Witch King mentioned the Nazgul and we know that the Nazgul is the Witch King himself.
The prey could also mean "victim", and this time, King Theoden is the "victim" of the Witch King. Thus, "Do not come between a Nazgul and his prey."

Well, they are Servants of the Enemy. π They probably know who their foes are. π Since the Nazgul led them to swoop down on Minas Tirith, the city itself, they probably figured out that those people down there are their enemies; the people they're supposed to attack. They might be too familiar with the appearances of the Orcs already so they managed to recognize who they are supposed to kill; and those are the "better-looking" ones. π Work of "instinct" as you may say. π Just like the Trolls, for some reason, it seems like the Fell Beasts know what they have to do. They do whatever the Orcs and their other "bosses" want them to do. They're just angry malice interested in killing and destroying anything since they are bred by the Enemy.
