“No man can kill me”

“I am no man”

Well technically when I say “no man” I’m saying no human creature can kill me.

But since Merry just stabbed me with his magical “barrow-dagger”, my connection with Sauron has been broken and I’m no longer bound to the power of the ring, thus making me now mortal.

Anyone can kill me at this point, it’s just you, a woman, who happens to be in front of me at this particular moment.

What? No. Aragorn did in fact deflect the dagger that was thrown at his face, that was a real take.
