Frodo would spare Saruman’s life for no reason other than “he was good once” and that is very Christian of him

#voiceofpika #pika reads lotr #i admire frodo so much tbh #hes getting flak because he doesn't willingly pariticipate in epic battles but tbh? doing THIS? this is courage man #how many people do you know who could do this? #and it seems p clear that this too is a consequence of his quest #he has become more attuned to how ~everyone~ can fall #and knowing this goes with being more willing to forgive and offer second chances #even when he has personally been wronged by the person in question #even if said person shows no sign of remorse #that takes real strength man. real strength. #frodo baggins #lotr #saruman #JRRT
