A New World Awaits
Our Plot
The story takes place in the context of historical events in North-West Middle-earth. Long before the start of the novel the Dark Lord Sauron forges the One Ring to gain power over other rings held by the leaders of Men, Elves and Dwarves. He is defeated in battle, and Isildur cuts the One Ring from Sauron's finger, claiming it as an heirloom for his line. Isildur is later killed by Orcs, and the Ring is lost in the river Anduin. Over two thousand years later, the Ring is found by a river-dwelling hobbit called Déagol, but he is strangled by his relative.
Sméagol, who takes the Ring. Sméagol is banished from his community, and hides under the Misty Mountains, where the Ring transforms him over the course of hundreds of years into a twisted, corrupted creature called Gollum. Eventually he loses the Ring which, as recounted in The Hobbit, is found by Bilbo Baggins. Meanwhile Sauron takes a new physical form and reoccupies his old realm of Mordor. Gollum sets out in search of the Ring, but is captured by Sauron, who learns from him that Bilbo Baggins now has it. Gollum is set loose and Sauron, who needs the Ring to regain his full power, sends forth the Ringwraiths, his dark, fearsome servants, to seize it.
For many years the realm has known peace. Since the death of Isildur and the loss of the Ring of Power, the tides of darkness waned and the inhabitants of Middle Earth have lived unharmed. Yet of late, things have been stirring in the depths of the world. The wizards have returned to Middle Earth, the darkness beginning to stir again. The ring has laid dormant in the hands of the hobbit Bilbo Baggins for long years no, but no longer. The ring has heard its master's call, and longs to return to him. The forces of shadow are awakening across the land, and threaten to engulf Middle Earth in darkness once more.
This is a very active site, and we are 1 months before Frodo leaves on his journey. The shadow has just started to peak its ugly head over the horision in the east. Now that the ring has heard its master's call. Who will take up head and fight? Or subdue to the rings power.
