![]() In the quest to destroy the One Ring, Frodo and Sam were tricked by Gollum to venture into her lair in order to cross into Mordor, and only through use of the Phial of Galadriel were they able to escape it. In this place, Shelob had free rein to do whatever she wished, including devouring the unwitting inhabitants of the Tower of Cirith Ungol this freedom was allotted by the Dark Lord Sauron in return for her services. There was a foul and evil smell in the air, sensed by Frodo and Sam. Other paths led to various other places, most of which were only known by Shelob herself. One path led to the Tower of Cirith Ungol, which was blocked by a half-door to keep Shelob out. Inside were the skeletons and rotting corpses of Shelob's past prey deeper into the cave could be found sticky, innumerable webs in a vast maze of tunnels. It was wide enough for Frodo and Sam to walk side by side with their outstretched hands touching the side walls. The tunnel walls themselves were smooth, as if worn by immeasurable touching. The lair itself was at the utmost top of a dangerous staircase and was shrouded in shadow and darkness.
