Fore those of you who have seen the movies and have not actually read any of the books I have decided to give you a tad more info regarding the one ring and its qualities. Fore those of you who have read Tolkien's books hang on and keep reading because I have also decided to shed light on a portion of the ring's history witch can easily be overlooked. First of all, movie fans must be aware that Sauron's ring was worn on the pinky of the dark lord and not his ring finger. I don't know how Jackson shoed Sauron wearing his ring in the prologue but I heard he might have missed this detail in the Fellowship of the Ring. On to more important matters. The ring displays fiery letters inside and outside the golden band. In the movies I don't know whether this is clear or not but I thought that fans like myself might need this fact made transparent and less open to interpretation. Thirdly and most interesting I have heard that the writing on the one ring is in a form of Elvish called Tangwer witch Sauron himself made. That form of Elvish speech was originally designed to be used as the only language of Sauron's realm and all those servants under his authority else ware. However his armies were so diverse and culturally different that this ancient writing and the manner of speaking was seldom used during the height of his terrible reign as overlord of Mordor during the third age. Further more I have also discovered that the one ring made its way to the island of Numenor inhabited by mortal men fore those fans of Tolkien's more obscure yet equally important works. It is said that Sauron brought the ruling ring with him to Numenor to corrupt its people and destroy them fore all time. When this plan eventually back fired he brought the ring with him despite the fact that his fare form had been unmade fore ever explaining his grotesque form as dark lord of Mordor at that battle we see in the prologue Peter Jackson cunningly assembled from the final chapters of the Silmarrillion.
Thank you and remember oft evil will shall evil mar. Even shadow must pass so that when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer.
