  2. Don't be too rough with each other! We're here to appreciate, and sometimes lightly rib, Tolkien's fantastic creation, and all of its derivative works. Arguments happen, but remember, in the words of Tolkien, that food and cheer and good song are what make a merrier world!

  3. AI content will be removed at moderator discretion. We ultimately want to keep AI content in this comm to a minimum, so while unknowingly sharing an AI meme might not always merit a removal, things like AI videos and the like will generally be removed.

You are correct regarding the implication, but I think it's a bit different than that. The blade Merry uses to stab the witch king was from the barrow downs, and was enchanted to be able to harm the witch king. So it was less "oh duh she's not a man, problem solved" and more "his magic shield is busted, stab him quick!"

I know all that, I'm saying they would have planned under the assumption they couldn't kill him.

Which answers my initial question, I guess. They never tried to use the ring to lure the ringwraiths into an ambush, because if the witch king takes the ring and gets away, they're done.
