Fo...This is no 'Annatar' you speak of, wise friend. For if the wise are right, Sauron was a Maia, corrupted into Evil by Melkor (who himself was one of the Valar). So were the Balrogs of the deep.<BR/>This ruler could never have been a Maia, but is akin to the great Goblin Lord Golfimbul, or the vilest of the Uruk-Hai, grown to power because his fathers have reigned for long over Middle Earth, while the nobler races have chosen exile and forgetfulness over leadership.<BR/>For he has no guile, just a bully's sneer. He has no deception, his craft is plain. And no wars of other people's making need bring him down. His folly and stupidity shall be his chiefest foe. That we make alliances with such a power begs the question - is there another Lord in the making? And if there is, is it Dark or Fair?Sketchy Selfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01317624910267305828noreply@blogger.com
