Part 3/8:
The video transitions into exploring Gandalf's journey to Rivendell, revealing discrepancies between the depiction in the films and the actual events in the books. For instance, film audiences may assume Gandalf was merely rescued by an eagle after being captured by Saruman. However, in Tolkien's lore, eagles struggle to transport humans over long distances; hence, Gandalf was dropped off in Rohan by the eagle named Gwaihir, from where he had to find a swift steed to complete his travel.
