Anyone read Lord of the Rings and remember how Saruman went from Saruman the White to Saruman of the Many Colors because he started to manipulate each individual in specific ways that applied to just that person?

And his downfall was he tried to weave his web of lies and individually manipulate each person in the group from Helm's Deep, but his cunning words to Theoden made Wormtongue realize he was being lied to this whole time and he got so mad he stabbed Saruman in the back and threw him off the tower?

idk it's giving Kaboodle.

#lifesteal #gnome rambles #it's also in the extended edition but they never call him “of the many colors” in the movies #and I always loved that name bc all colors make White and Gandalf still thought he was The White wizard #but his lies split Saruman apart and was his downfall and that's why Gandalf could become the White #anyway. anytime someone talks about what Kaboodle told them I think of him
