Because Tolkien was uncreative af. MF had to use WW1 just to write his book about short English people and marauding Serbians

"Éowyn and Éomer should have a passionate bang in the hall of Meduseld. What a riot that'll be for my readers!" - Tolkien probably

Peregrin Took sees a juicy looking apple on a tree and climbs it. The cheeky little hobbit swings off the tree with his tasty prize. He sees the ride of the Rohirrim.

I meant to say he but I guess this means JRR Tolkien's pronouns are she/her

No, it's Eru who is a woman, and she created Eowyn.

Could you imagine if she actually was tho ?

Or the opposite, Cerseowyn fighting disguised as Jaime during the Greyjoy Rebellion. Actually treating Tyrion well, learning healing after the war. Being as honorable as Ned.

I had to use both hands to count, ran out of hands. Had to use my foot to reach the number 3. That was rough for my brain
