"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 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 World is Changed. I Feel it in the Water. I Feel it in the Earth. I Smell it in the Air. Much that Once was is Lost, for None now Live who Remember it." -Galadriel

"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 Dwarves, great miners and craftsmen of Mountain Halls. And Nine, Nine Rings were gifted to the Race of Men, who above all else, desire power. For within these Rings were 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 all of his cruelty, his malice, and his will to dominate all life.
One Ring to Rule them All."
