The text is highlighting Elves as the exception, the only kind that does not serve Sauron in any way. But reading this overview, one might come to the conclusion that the beasts and birds are also united while Sauron is fielding nebulous "evil creatures". I propose using the same nouns to describe these kinds on both sides, optionally with the ones in the hosts of Mordor additionally described as evil.</ins></div></td></tr>
