Talion was forced to accept wearing Isildur’s ring to prolongate his own life. Once the time for Talion to join came he no longer had his free will and was forced to join in place of Isildur. Much like falling under the Ring’s influence and turning evil, Talion did not have a choice in becoming a Nazgul. This paired with the interaction he has with Shelob before he chooses to take the ring can lead us to the conclusion that he knew what was going to happen but chose to sacrifice himself in order to save Middle Earth. He was only a man and was extremely aware of the extent of Sauron’s power and the effect the ring has on the person carrying it. Technically, we could say that Talion never turned evil because he did not actually have a choice in the matter.Īnother thing to consider is that Talion, from the beginning, must have known what his fate will be if he accepts to carry Isildur’s ring. Once Sauron took over he had no free will and was not able to make any decisions for the rest of his life. Talion, after decades of battle with Sauron finally lost.
Isildur’s ring which Talion was wearing to prolongate his life in order to achieve his goals enabled Sauron to slowly over time corrupt him and make him evil. Despite his determination to keep Mordor in a constant state of war to buy enough time for Middle Earth to prepare for Sauron’s return.ĭespite his best efforts, Talion was just a man and as such he was no match for Sauron’s power. This, in turn, caused any wearer to fall under the influence of the ring even if they had the strongest of the wills. The rings were corrupt by Sauron himself once they were forged. He was wearing one of the nine rings that originally corrupted men. Talion became evil because of the effect the ring he was wearing had on him. Is Talion the Witch King? Why did Talion become evil?
