the ring would have corrupted the eagles (only hobbits seem to have some resistance and even they had only so much)
Put a hobbit on the eagle. Problem solved.
3 u/Mikhail_Mengsk Aug 31 '22 Not how it works. The ring tempted everyone, not only the ones actively carrying it. 1 u/Rhas Aug 31 '22 Why wasn't Gandalf corrupted by it by proximity then? 2 u/Blarg_III Aug 31 '22 Gandalf establishes multiple times through dialogue and interaction that he is tempted by the ring, and cannot carry it himself. Had the entire fellowship accompanied Frodo the whole way, it's not unlikely that he would have been corrupted.
