Prophecy
"I amar prestan aen.
The world is changed.
Han mathon ne nen.
I feel it in the water.
Han mathon ne chae.
I feel it in the earth.
A han noston ned gwilith.
I smell it in the air.
Much that once was is lost.
For none now live who remember it."
"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 throne
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.
One Rind to rule them all, One Rind to find them,
One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them
In the Land of Mordor where the shadows lie."
So is told of the making of the Rings of Power in the Second Age of the Sun, and about the darkness that followed in the next years. Many great songs and stories tell of that time, but few are those who still live and have truly seen that time: and those who have seen the dark years ever more seldom speak of them. But in the Third Age the One Ring was destroyed, and the Dark Lord Sauron, the Maker and the Lord of the Rings, was overthrown. And so returned the long awaited peace back to Middle-earth, and its people were able to walk free in their lands once more.
But I know, that the true storm is only about to come. I can feel it. The Dark Lord isn't gone, and moment of His return is close. The power of the One Ring still exists, even if the Free People think that it was destroyed when the Ring was thrown in to the fires of Mount Doom. But when Sauron put his power in to the Ring, it was like filling a cup with water. And when the cup shatters, water will spread to the ground - but it isn't gone. And that is how the power and the life force of Sauron still remain in Middle-earth: scattered, waiting for someone to gather it together again. And as long as that power exists, the return of Sauron is only a matter of time.
Too late our enemies shall realise, that the coming of Sauron is only a beginning. The Fellowship and those who aided them shall pay dearly for their deeds, and they will regret their actions against the Dark Lord ere their end comes! They shall see how everything that has ever been dear to them will be destroyed, and that is before they'll face their own doom at the feet of the Dark Lord, begging for mercy, which shall not be granted.
And when Middle-earth is covered with shadows and darkness, it will be time to take down the Valinor, and when that time comes, even the light of the Valar cannot protect those who seek protection from them.
The Darkness shall rise again, and this time none shall stop it. And those who dared to rise against your might, father, shall fall. The Evil hasn't gone away - it is only about to come!
Come bloody dawn!
Come red nightfall!
to be continued…
