It's just odd that pushing Gollum was the best solution to end the domain of such a strong Dark Lord.Developed by Daedalic Entertainment, well-known for its long list of critically acclaimed indie titles, The Lord of the Rings: Gollum aims to add to the long list of fantastic Lord of the Rings games and bring deep Tolkien lore mainstream like Amazon Studios’ The Rings of Power series. Thus, Eru only involved himself if something major needed to happen, and overthrowing Sauron clearly qualified. The next major intervention was the resurrection of Gandalf and his return mission as Gandalf the White. That event also resulted in the changing of the world so that not just anyone could sail to Valinor. In doing so, he drowned the king's fleet and buried Númenor beneath the sea. Then, he intervened to make sure that Ar-Pharazôn couldn’t attack Valinor. After creating Elves and Men and sanctioning the creation of Dwarves and Ents, Eru stayed out of things until the middle of the Second Age. There were a few other times when Eru intervened. Pushing Gollum was one of those instances because Sauron's One Ring needed to be destroyed after its long existence. However, there were a few times when he stepped in and directly influenced things. He was supreme and all-powerful, but he rarely intervened in the events of creation. Eru created the world, the Valar and everything else during the Ainulindalë. In Letter 192, Tolkien wrote that Gollum was actually pushed by LOTR's god figure - Eru Ilúvatar. All indication was that Gollum had coincidentally tripped into the fires, but there was more than that.
