: : : Looking toward Mirkwood from Lorien, the comments was made about the south and the north of the forest at strife one with another - if the Necromancer had been driven out, what was still there to cause the contention?? It seems as though the forest would be cleansed....: : Sauron was driven out, but his servants remained in Dol Guldur. At least one, and possibly two Ringwraiths were stationed there prior to the Hunt for the Ring. I also assume that orcs, wolves and other evil creatures inhabited the area as well. At least one of Sauron's armies issued from this area during the War of the Ring. Not a very THOROUGH "driving out" then apparently... (excuse me)
