The One Ring

Posted by 985M3rv|n on 12:54 in ,
Three Rings for the Elven-Kings under the sky,
Seven for the Dwarf-Lords in their halls of stone,
Nine for Mortal Men doomed to die,
One for the Dark Lord on his dark thorne

In the Land of Mordor where the shadows lie,
One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them,
One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them

In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.

The legend of The One Ring first appeared in the novel of J.R.R. Tolkien's "The Hobbit" which i recently read & to which Peter Jackson (Lord of The Rings) will be bringing up in theaters soon. "The Hobbit" is much more around Bilbo Baggins & Gandalf, the grey. It takes place well before the sequels of "The Lord of the Rings" and the questions / curiosity around events which took place in the past while watching / reading the latter, are answered. Both novels are simply amazing and so captivating. I spent how don't know how many hours last time reading "The Hobbit" in the plane on my way to MY while everybody else was busy ZzzZzz-ing & was wondering why didn't i read it before "The Lord of the Rings"
The One Ring has a power of its own and only answers to Sauron, the Dark Lord.

from the fires of Mount Doom in Mordor is "
My Precious"

You might want to know that the Greek philosopher Plato wrote about such a ring and the invisible man centuries before Tolkien and H.G. Wells. Here's the link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring_of_Gyges
