I have a challenge for all you hobbits out there, and if its one that belongs in the Green Dragon, I will happily oblige taking it there, but you guys are just nutty enough to handle it I think:
I want to start a discussion that concerns events in Two Towers with Pippin and the palantir.
Here are my questions:
1) (and this goes back to Lothlorien/FOTR actually) What choice do you think Galadriel offered to Pippin?
2) What do you think Pippin meant when, after looking in the palantir, he said "he looked and I understood."
3) In what way do you think Pippin was affected by the palantir?
These are just some beginning questions I have. I think I have already introduced myself as being rather obsessed by the blighter, but am enjoying myself thoroughly in some deep deep discussion by the fandom thread in Imladris.net about the situation coming up in TTT.
Merry and Pippin await your answer...
