Creators' Notes (optional): My ‘verse takes “The Hunt for the Ring,” version C, from Unfinished Tales as canon; excerpt from the relevant passages in the endnotes. Events in this fic proceed according to that version, excepting of course the parts pertaining to my OCs. Angandil and Moril have appeared in a few of my Saruman-centric stories on Lotrgfic.com.

Summary: Angandil, chief of Saruman’s crebain, witnesses the Nine pay a visit to Isengard.
