Heavyarms Posted January 28, 2002 Share Posted January 28, 2002 It is kinda stupid, but is Strider also Aragorn? I'm not that far, only up to the point where they have met Strider for the first time in the tavern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duder Posted January 28, 2002 Share Posted January 28, 2002 *POSSIBLE SPOILER* Yeah sure he is, have you not seen the film yet? He goes under the name to keep his identity secret, as Aragorn is the name of the true king. Aragorn son of Arathorn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherack Nhar Posted January 28, 2002 Share Posted January 28, 2002 That's not a spoiler. As soon as they mention the name Aragorn, we know that it's Strider they're referring to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duder Posted January 28, 2002 Share Posted January 28, 2002 But do people want to know that he is the true heir to the throne? Surely that is a spoiler, if not what is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

duder Posted January 28, 2002 Share Posted January 28, 2002 *POSSIBLE SPOILER* Wizards improve by tests of ability. He returns from fighting the Balrog, as Gandalf the White, and is mistaken by Aragorn, to be Saruman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rogue Nine Posted January 28, 2002 Share Posted January 28, 2002 Also, wizards in Tolkien's mind aren't your garden-variety magic casters. They come from a specific race of immortal beings called the Ainur, in the subdivision Maiar. Therefore, Gandalf really couldn'tve died. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
