Is it Grishnakh? That's a very clever clue if I remember correctly, that he had a more evil voice, but softer than Ugluk's.

Posted: **Sun Jun 14, 2020 2:03 am**

Correct, @Boromir88, it is Grishnákh! Nicely done.

To explain the clue:

" 'That is a very interesting remark,' sneered a voice, softer than the others but more evil.[...]'Who does he think he is, setting up on his own with his filthy white badges? They might agree with me, with Grishnákh their trusted messenger; and I Grishnákh say this: Saruman is a fool, and a dirty treacherous fool. But the Great Eye is on him.' " - The Uruk-Hai, The Two Towers

He prepared then the greatest armament that the world had seen, and when all was ready he sounded his trumpets and set sail; and he broke the Ban of the Valar, going up with war to wrest everlasting life from the Lords of the West." (Appendix A, The Return of the King)

The floor is yours, @Aduchil.
