Tolkien’s subtle connections between LOTR and The Silmarillion are just glorious to discover. Like the reason Gollum hates sunlight and moonlight is the same reason the Nazgûl get scared off when Frodo calls out to Varda! Sauron, and thus his servants and his Ring that has completely corrupted Gollum’s soul, shares the absolute darkness of Melkor, who always hated and feared Varda because she is absolute light and thereby she created the Sun and Moon in defiance of that darkness… and she created them out of the last remaining light of the Two Trees which Melkor destroyed, so every time a piece of Melkor’s darkness comes into contact with the light of the Sun and Moon, it is reminded that Melkor did not destroy that light completely, that it lives on. Gollum can feel Varda’s creations forever clashing with what is indirectly Melkor’s creation.

(Context, credit, and source below poll.)

Today's poll is based on this thread with notable principles @penny-anna, @elodieunderglass, @elanorpam, and @earhartsease. All of the options above are paraphrased from their original answers.

The full original question:

Can I please ask for your top five theories on why the Ringwraiths become so much more powerful over the course of the LotR trilogy? By the end of the books a single Ringwraith holds an army of 6000 men in paralysing dread from a height of a mile, they're dismaying hosts of men, etc. And in the beginning, they're easily defeated by "jumping behind a tree," "pretending to be in a different room," "getting on a little boat," "man with a stick on fire," etc.

#thinking of sauron as the femme fatale 'seducer of men' archetypical character #using his beauty to overpower/manipulate others into doing what he wants #a control freak aware of his assets and nonplussed about employing them for his gain #and the ringwraiths being souls falling under the spell of his temptations #maybe suspecting his true nature but too drunk on his sweetness and silver tongue and golden promises to do anything about it #*sounds of gnawing the table* it all makes sense in my head! i swear!!! #tolkien #lord of the rings #lotr #sauron #annatar #the one ring #nazgul #ringwraiths #oc #lotr oc #oc: duvain #my ocs #art #my art #merilles

The Nazgul: Khamul and the Witch-king of Angmar. Still alive but worn down by powers they should not have had and very close to becoming wraiths.

[...] but the sun now climbing toward the South was veiled in the reeks of Mordor, and through a threatening haze it gleamed, remote, a sullen red, as if it were the ending of the day, or the end maybe of all the world of light.

The Road to Rivendell by Joe Gilronan

As the sun sets low over the misty mountains, the companions make camp. Frodo wounded, sits crouched by the fire; Merry, Pippin and Strider watch on with concern, while Sam busies himself attending Bill the pony. Unnoticed on the distant bridge, a black rider observes the scene with malice, eager to report back to his fellow pursuers.
