The Fellowship REBORN

PROLOGUE

(All rights of work belong to J.R.R Tolkien)

It began with the forging of the great rings. Three were given to the Elves, immortal, wisest and fairest of all beings. Seven to the Dwarf lords, great miners and craftsmen of the mountain halls. And nine, nine rings were gifted to the race of Men, who above all else, desire power. For within these rings was bound the strength and will to govern each race. But they were all of them deceived, for another ring was made.

In the land of Mordor, in the fires of Mount Doom, the Dark Lord Sauron forged in secret a master ring, to control all others. And into this Ring, he poured his cruelty, his malice and his will to dominate all life.

'One Ring to rule them all'

One by one, free lands in Middle-Earth fell to the power of the Ring. But there were some who resisted. A last alliance of Men and Elves marched against the armies of Mordor and on the slopes of Mount Doom they fought for the freedom of Middle-Earth.
Victory was near but the power of the ring could not be undone. The dark lord towered over both elves and men wearing the ring of power, glowing on his finger.
In fear, some of the warriors back off. Sauron withdraws his sword and wields it towards a group of warriors and sends them flying across the field. He repeats it with another fell swoop.
Elendil the king of Gondor raised his sword to strike but Sauron parries his blow and flings him against the rock, crushing him to death.
Horrified, Isildur ( the son of Elendil ) runs to his fallen father.
It was in this moment when all had faded, that Isildur took up his fathers word.
Isildur grasps then hilt of the Narsil but Sauron quickly stomps it down, shattering the blade.
Sauron, with the ring on his finger, reaches down towards Isildur. With a last desperate attempt, Isildur let's put a battle cry and strikes Saurons hand with the shards of Narsil, slicing the finger that bears the one ring.
Sauron let's put a cry as the ring is separated from him. He implodes, sending a shock wave throughout the battlefield, knocking the warring troops of their feet.
His armour falls onto the ground, his body vapourized.
Sauron the enemy of the free people's of middle earth was defeated.

.The Ring passed to Isildur, who had this one chance to destroy evil forever.
But the hearts of men are easily corrupted. And the Ring of Power has a will of its own. It betrayed Isildur to his death. And some things that should not have been forgotten were lost.
History became legend, legend became myth and for two and a half thousand years, the Ring passed out of all knowledge. Until, when chance came, it ensnared a new bearer.

The Ring came to the creature Gollum, who took it deep into the tunnels of the Misty Mountains. And there, it consumed him.
The Ring brought to Gollum unnatural long life. For five hundred years it poisoned his mind. And in the gloom of Gollum's cave, it waited. Darkness crept back into the forest of the world. Rumor grew of a shadow in the east, whispers of a nameless fear, and the Ring of Power perceived. Its time had now come.
It abandoned Gollum.

But something happened then the Ring did not intend. It was picked up by the most unlikely creature imaginable.
Bilbo Baggins of the Shire found the ring and soon will come a time when hobbits will shape the fortunes of all.
