"Is to love rendering aen" "The World has changed..." "Han mathon ne nen" "I feel it in the water..." "Han mathon ne chae" "I feel it in the Earth..." "A han nostron ned wilith" "I smell it in the air..." "Much that once was is lost, for none now live It began with the forging of the great Rings..." "Three were given to the Elves inmortal, wisest and fairest of all beings." "Seven to the Dwarf Lords..." "Great miners and craftsmen of the mountain halls" "And nine..." "Nine rings were gifted to the race of Men... who above all else desire power" "For within these Rings was 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 cored his cruelty, his malice, and his will to dominate all life..." "One Ring to rule them all." "One by one, free lands of Middle Earth fell to the Power of the Ring." "But there were some who resisted..." "A last Alliance of Men and Elves marched against the armys of Mordor... and on the slopes of Mount Doom they fought for the freedom of Middle Earth." "Victory was near" "but the power of the ring could not be undone..." "It was in this moment... when all hope had faded... that Isildur, son of the King took up his father's sword." ""Sauron" the enemy of the free peoples of Middle Earth was defeated" "The ring passed to Isildur, who has this one chance to destroy Evil forever but the hearts of the men are easily corrupted" "And the ring of the power... has a will of its own" "It betrayed Isildur, to his death" "And some things that should not have been forgotten were lost" "History became legend..." "Legend became myth... and for 2,500 years the ring passed out of all knowledge." "Until when chance came it ensnared a new bearer" "My precious... my own..." "The ring came to the creature Gollum, who took it deep into the tunnels of The Misty Mountains, and there it consumed him" "It came to me, my own!" "My love, my precious!" "The ring brought Gollum unnatural long life" "For 500 years it poisoned his mind," "and in the gloom of Gollum's cave it waited." "Darkness crept back into the forests of the world." "Rumor grew of a shadow in the East, whispers of a nameless fear, and the Ring of Power perceived that its time had come" "It abbandoned Gollum but something happenned then the ring did not intend." "It was picked up by the most unlikely creature imaginable" "A Hobbit..." "Bilbo Baggins, of the Shire" "Lost!" "I lost my precious!" "For the time will soon come when Hobbits will shape the fortunes of all" "You're late!" "A wizard is never late," "Frodo Baggins, nor is he early." "He arrives precisely when he means to." "It's wonderful to see you, Gandalf" "You didn't think I'd miss your Uncle Bilbo's birthday." "What news of the outside world?" "Tell me everything" "Everything?" "You're far too eager and curious for a hobbit" "First and natural..." "Well, what can I tell you?" "Life in the wide world goes on, much as it has this past age, full of its own comings and goings, scarcely aware of the existence of the Hobbits" "For which I am very grateful" "Ah... the long expected party..." "How is the old rascal?" "I hear it's going to be a party of special magnificence" "You know Bilbo He has the whole place in an uproar" " That's a pleasant" " Half the Shire has been invited" " Goodness" "He's up to something." "All right, then keep your secrets" "Before you came a long way, Bagginses were very well thought of" " Indeed" " Never had any adventures or did anything unexpected" "If you're referring to the incident with the dragon," "I was barely evolved" "All I did was give your uncle a little nudge out of the door" "Whatever you did You've been officially labeled a disturber of the peace" "Gandalf, Gandalf!" "Fireworks!" "Gandalf!" "Gandalf!" "Fireworks!" "Gandalf!" "Gandalf, I'm glad you're back" "So am I, dear boy" "So am I..." "No, thank you!" "We don't want any more visitors, well-wishers or distant relations!" "And what about very old friends?" "Gandalf?" "Bilbo Baggins" "My dear Gandalf!" "Good to see you..." "One hundred eleven years old Could you believe it?" "You haven't aged a day" "Come on, come in!" "Welcome, welcome!" "Tea?" "or maybe something a little stronger?" "I've got couple of bottles of the Old Winyards left 1926." "Very good year!" "Almost as old as I am!" "It was laid down by my father What say we open one?" "Just tea, thank you!" "I was expecting you last week, but you come and go as you please thus to be always" "I am afraid that badly I am prepared single we have chicken fried and cucumbers is a little cheese and is not sufficient" "we have frambuesa jelly, apple pie but I am afraid that are no great desserts we do not have sufficient" "I found a little spongy pie" "I can make you some eggs if you like..." "Gandalf?" "Just tea, thanks!" "Ah, right!" "You don't... if..." "No... not at all!" "I'm not at home!" "I've got to get away from these confounded relatives!" "Hanging on the bell all day never giving me a moment's peace!" "I want to see mountains again, mountains!" "Gandalf" "And then find somewhere quite where I can finish my book." "Oh!" "Tea!" "So you mean to go through with your plans?" "Yes, Yes!" "All the arrangements are made." "Open it" " Frodo suspects something!" " Of course he does!" "He's a Baggins!" "Not some blockheaded Bracegirdle from Hardbottle!" "You will tell him, won't you?" "Yes, yes!" "He's very fond of you" "I know" "He'd probably come with me if I asked him" "I think in his heart Frodo's still in love with the Shire" "The woods... and fields..." "little rivers" "I'm old Gandalf!" "I know I don't look it, but I'm beginning to feel it in my heart" "I feel thin!" "Sort of stretched like..." "butter stretched over too much bread!" "I need a holiday!" "A very long holiday..." "And I don't expect I shall return" "In fact I mean not to." "The old toby, the finest weed in the south farthing" "Gandalf my old friend this will be a night to remember" "Fat Golberg, glad to see you welcome, welcome!" "Go on, Sam, ask Rosie for a dance" "Uhmm..." "I think I'll just have another ale!" "No, you don't" "Go home" "So there I was..." "at the mercy of 3 monstrous Trolls" "And they were all arguing amongst themselves about how they were going to cook us" "Whether they would mince us, or sit on us, and squash us to jelly they spent so much time arguing that how and because" "And they spent so much time arguing, that sunlight crept over the top of the trees..." "And turned them all to stone!" "Quick!" "Oh!" "Off we go!" "No, no!" "The big one, big one!" " Done!" " Ypu're supposed to stick it in the ground!" " It is in the ground!" " Outside" " That was your idea!" "Bilbo, watch out for the dragon!" "Dragon?" "Nonsense, there hasn't been a dragon in these parts for a thousand years!" " That was good" " Let's get another one!" "Meriadoc Brandybuck and Peregrin Took" "I might have known" "Speech, Bilbo!" "Speech!" "Speech!" "My dear Bagginses, and Boffins..." "Tooks and Brandybucks" "Grubbs!" "Chubbs!" "Hornblowers!" "Bolgers!" "Bracegirdles!" "Proudfoots!" "Proudfeet!" "Today is my 111 birthday!" "Happy Birthday!" "Alas." "Eleventy-one years is far too short a time to live among such excellent, admirable Hobbits!" "I don't like half of you half as well as I should like, and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve." "I have things to do..." "I've put this off far too long" "I regret to announce this is the end!" "I'm going now" "I bid you all a very fond farewell" "Good bye!" " I suppose you think that was terribly clever" " Come on, Gandalf!" "Did you see their faces?" "There are many magic rings in this world, Bilbo Baggins and none of them should be used like that!" "It was just a bit of fun!" "Oh, you're probably right, as usual." "You will keep an eye on Frodo, won't you?" "Two eyes, as often as I can spare them" "I'm leaving everything to him" "And what about this ring of yours?" "Is that staying too?" "Yes, Yes!" "Take an envelope over there, on the mantlepiece" "No... wait it's... here in my pocket..." "Why... isn't that... isn't that odd, now" "Yes, after all, why not" "Why shouldn't I keep it?" "I think you should leave the ring behind, Bilbo" "Is that so hard?" "Well, no... and yes!" "Now it comes to it" "I don't feel like parting with it, it's mine!" "I found it!" "It came to me!" " There's no need to get angry" " Well if I'm angry, it's your fault!" "It's mine!" "My own" "My precious" "Precious?" "It's been call that before" "But not by you" "Oh, what business is it of yours what I do with my own things!" "I think that you have that ring quite long enough!" "You want it for yourself!" "BILBO BAGGINS!" "Do not take me for some conjuror of cheap tricks!" "I'm not trying to rob you!" "I'm trying to help you" "All your long years, we've been friends" "Trust me, as you once did" "Let it go!" "You're right, Gandalf" "The ring must go to Frodo." "It's late The road is long" "Yes, it is time" "Bilbo, the ring is still in your pocket" "I've thought of an ending for my book:" "And he lived happily ever after, to the end of his days." "And I am sure you will, my dear friend" "Good bye, Gandalf" "Good bye, dear Bilbo" "Until our next meeting..." "It's mine... my own... my precious..." "Riddles in the dark." "He's gone, hasn't he?" "He talked for so long about leaving I didn't think he'd really do it." "Bilbo's ring" "He's gone to stay with the Elves" "He's left you Bag End" "Along with all his possessions" "The ring is yours now" "Put it somewhere out of sight" " Where are you going?" " There are some things that I must see to" " What things?" " Questions..." "Questions that need answering" "But if you've only just arrived!" "I don't understand" "Neither do I" "Keep it secret Keep it safe" "Shire!" "Baggins!" "Year 3434 of the Second Age..." "here follows the account of Isildur... high King of Gondor and the finding of the Ring of Power" "It has come to me, the One Ring which shall be an heirloom of my kingdom" "All that will follow in my bloodline shall be bound to its fate for I shall risk no hurt to the ring!" "It is precious to me... though I abide with a great pain" "Markings upon the band begin to fade" "The writing wich at first was as clear as red flame, has all but disappeared a secret now that only fire can tell" "Shire!" "Baggins!" "It's no Baggins around here!" "They're up in Hobbiton" "That way!" "Is it secret?" "Is it safe?" "What are you doing?" "Hold out your hand, Frodo!" "It's quite cool" "What can you see?" "Can you see anything?" "Nothing!" "There's nothing!" "Wait..." "There are markings" "It's some form of elvish, I can't read it" "There are few who can" "The language is that of Mordor, wich I will not utter here!" "Mordor..." "In the common tongue it says:" ""One ring to rule them all" "One ring to find them" "One ring to bring them all and in the darkness, bind them!"" "This is the One Ring, forged by the Dark Lord, Sauron... in the fires of Mount Doom... taken by Isildur, from the hand of Sauron himself!" "Bilbo found it... in Gollum's cave" "Yes... for 60 years the ring layed quite... in Bilbo's keeping..." "prolonging his life..." "delaying old age... but no longer Frodo" "Evil is stirring in Mordor the ring has woken, it's heard its Master's call" "But he was destroyed!" "Sauron was destroyed!" "No, Frodo" "The spirit of Sauron endured" "His life force is bounded to the ring, and the ring survived" "Sauron has returned, his orcs have multiplied..." "His fortress of Barad-Dur is rebuilt in the land of Mordor" "Sauron needs only this ring to cover all the lands on a second darkness!" "He is seeking it, all his thought is bent on it" "The ring yearns above all else to return to the hand of its master" "They are one, the ring and the dark lord" "Frodo!" "He must never find it!" "All right!" "we put it away" "We keep it hidden, we never speak of it again" "No one knows it's here... do they?" "Do they, Gandalf?" "There is one other who knew that Bilbo had the ring!" "I've looked everywhere for the creature Gollum, but the enemy found him first!" "I don't know how long they tortured him for" "But amidst the endless screams and the babble, they discerned two words:" "Shire!" "Baggins!" "That will lead them here!" "Who goes there!" "Take it, Gandalf!" "Take it!" " No, Frodo!" " You must take it!" " You can not offer me this ring!" "I'm giving it to you!" "DON'T... tempt me, Frodo!" "I dare not take it, not even to keep it safe!" "Understand Frodo..." "I would use this ring from a desire to do good" "But through me, it would wield a power too great and terrible to imagine" "But it cannot stay in the Shire!" "No!" "No, it can't!" "What must I do?" "You must leave." "And leave quickly" "Where?" "Where do I go?" "Get out of the Shire." "Head for the village of Bree" " Bree..." "What about you?" " I'll be waiting for you at the Inn of the Prancing Pony" "And the ring will be safe there?" "I don't know Frodo I don't have any answers" "I must see the head of my order He's both wise and powerful" "Trust me Frodo, he'll know what to do!" "You'll have to leave the name of Baggins behind you, for the name is not safe outside the Shire" "Travel only by day, and stay off the road!" "I can cut across countries easily enough" "My dear Frodo..." "Hobbits really aren't basic creatures!" "You can learn all there is to know about their ways in a month, and yet after a hundred years, they can still surprise you" "Get down!" "Confounded old, Samwise Gamgee!" "Have you been eavesdropping?" "I haven't dropped no eaves, sir, honest" "I was just cutting the grass under the window there, if you follow me" "A little late for trimming the verge, don't you think?" "I heard raised voices!" "What did you hear?" "SPEAK!" "N-n-n-nothing important!" "That is I heard a great deal about a ring, dark lord, and something about the end of the world, but, please Mr. Gandalf, sir, please don't hurt me" "Don't turn me into anything... unnatural" "No?" "Perhaps not" "I've thought of a better use for you" "Come along, Samwise, keep up" "Be careful, both of you" "The enemy has many spies in his service" "Birds, beasts..." "Is it safe?" "Never put it on." "For the agent of the Dark lord will be drawn to its power" "Always remember, Frodo." "The ring is trying to get back to its master" "It wants to be found" "This is it" "This is that?" "If I take one more step, it'll be the farthest away from home I've ever been" "Come on, Sam" "You remember what Bilbo used to say?" "It's a dangerous business," "Frodo, going out your door." "You step out onto the road, and if you don't keep your feet, there's no knowing where you might be swept off to" "Smoke rises from the mountain of Doom, and the hour grows late, and Gandalf the Grey rides to Isengard seeking my council seeking my council" "For that is why you have come, is it not?" " My old friend..." " Saruman!" "You are sure of this?" "Beyond any doubt" "So the ring of power has been found" "All these long years, it was in the Shire, under my very nose" "Yet you did not have the wits to see it" "Your love of the Halflings' leaf has clearly slowed your mind ... enough time." "Time to counter Sauron if we act quickly." "Time?" "What time you think that we have?" "Sauron has regained much of his former strength" "He cannot yet take physical form, but his spirit has lost none of its potency" "Concealed within his fortress, the Lord of Mordor sees all" "His gaze pierces cloud, shadow, earth and flesh" "You know of what I speak, Gandalf" "A great eye, lidless, wreathed in flame" " The eye of Sauron He is gathering all evil to him" "Very soon he will summon an army great enough to launch an assault upon Middle Earth" "You know all this?" "How?" " I have seen it A palantir is a dangerous tool, Saruman" "Why?" "Why should we fear to use it?" "They are not all accounted for, the lost seeing stones" "You do not know who else may be watching" "The hour is later than you think" "Sauron's forces are already moving" "The nine have left Mordor" "The nine?" "They crossed the river Isen on Midsummer's eve, disguised as riders in black" "They've reached the Shire They will find the ring, and kill the one that carries it" "Frodo!" "You do not seriously think that a hobbit could contend with the will of Sauron?" "There are none who can" "Against the power of Mordor, there can be no victory" "We must join with him, Gandalf" "We must join with Sauron" "It would be wise, my friend" "Tell me, friend..." "When did Saruman the wise abandon reason for madness?" "I gave you the chance of aiding me willingly, but you have elected a way of paying!" "Mr. Frodo!" "Frodo!" " I thought I'd lost you" " What are you talking about?" " It's just something Gandalf said what did he say?" ""Don't you lose him, Samwise Gamgee" And I don't mean to" "Sam, we're still in the Shire." "What could possibly happen?" "Frodo!" "Merry..." "It's Frodo Baggins!" " Hello Frodo!" " Get of him!" "What's the meaning of this?" "Hold these" "You've been into Farmer Maggot's crop" "Hey!" "You get back here!" "..." "You get out of my fields" "I don't know why he's so upset" "It's only a couple of carrots And some cabbages" "And then those empty bags of potatoes we left in last week" "And then, the mushrooms, the week before!" "Yes, Pippin, my point is, he's clearly over reacting" "Run!" "Ahhh." "Ohhh" "I think I've broken something" "Trust a Brandybuck and a Took" "What?" "It was just a detour." "A shortcut" "A shortcut to what?" "Mushrooms!" "that is mine!" "that is precious!" "is one good Sam here!" "I think we should get off the road" "Get off the road!" "QUICK!" "Silence!" "What was that?" "See anything?" "Nothing!" "What's going on?" "That black rider was looking for something." "Or someone..." "Frodo?" "Get down!" "I have to leave the Shire" "Sam and I must get to Bree" "Right!" "Right..." "Buckleberry Ferry." "Follow me." "Hurry!" "Follow me!" "Run!" "Get the boats out!" "Frodo!" "Go!" "Hurry!" "Run!" "Jump Frodo!" "... We go!" "How far to the nearest crossing?" "The brandywine bridge." "Twenty miles" "What do you want?" "We're heading for the prancing pony" "Hobbits." "Four hobbits!" "What business brings you to Bree?" "We wish to stay at the inn." "Our business is our own" "Alright, young sir, I meant no offence" "It's my job to ask questions after nightfall." "There's talk of strange folk abroad" "Can't be too careful" "Excuse me" "Good evening, little masters!" "If you're seeking accommodation, we've got some nice cosy, hobbit sized rooms available..." "Mr..." "Underhill." "My name's Underhill" " Underhill..." " We're friends of Gandalf the Grey." "Can you tell him we've arrived?" "Gandalf?" "Oh, yes!" "... I remember" "Elderly chap." "Big grey beard, and pointy hat" "Not seen him for 6 months" "What do we do now?" "Sam, he'll be here." "He'll come" "What's that?" "This, my friend, is a pint!" "It comes in pints?" "I'm getting one" "You... already?" "That fellow's done nothing but stare at you since we arrived" "Excuse me." "That man in the corner." "Who is he?" "He's one of them rangers." "Dangerous folk, they are, wandering in the wilds" "What his right name is, I've never heard, but around here, he's known as Strider" "Strider" "Baggins?" "Sure I know a Baggins" "He's over there, Frodo Baggins!" "He's my second cousin once removed on his mother's side and... and my cousin third quite distant..." "Steady!" "You cannot hide" "I see you" "You draw far too much attention to yourself" "Mr. Underhill" "What do you want?" " There is sort of trinket you carry" " I carry nothing!" "Indeed." "I can avoid being seen if I wish" "But to dissapear entirely." "That is a rare gift" "Who are you?" "Are you frightened?" "Yes" "Not nearly frightened enough." "I know what hunts you" "Let him or I it will hurt, Strider!" "You have a stout heart for a hobbit" "But that will not save you You can no longer wait for the wizard, Frodo" "They're coming" "What are they?" "They were once men." "Great kings of men" "Then Sauron the deceiver gave to them 9 rings of power" "Blinded by their greed, they took them without questioning, one by one, falling to darkness" "Now they are slaves to his will" "They are the Nazgul." "Ring wraiths." "Neither living nor dead" "At all times they feel the presence of the ring" "Drawn to the power of the One" "They will never stop hunting you" "Where are you taking us?" "Into the wild" "How do we know this Strider is a friend of Gandalf?" "We have no choice but to trust him" "But where is he leading us?" "To Rivendell, Master Gamgee, to the House of Elrond" "Did you hear that?" "Rivendell We're going to see the elves" "Gentlemen We do not stop 'til nightfall" " What about breakfast?" " You've already had it" "We've had one, yes What about second breakfast?" "Don't think he knows about second breakfast, Pippin" "What about elevensies?" "Luncheon Afternoon tea" "Dinner?" "Supper." "He knows about them." "Doesn't he?" "Pippin!" "The power of Isengard is at your command," "Sauron, Lord of the Earth" "What orders from Mordor, my lord?" " What does the eye command?" " We have work to do!" "The trees are strong, my lord The roots go deep" "Rip them all down!" "This was the great watchtower of Amon Hen" "We will rest here tonight" "These are for you, keep them close!" "I'm going to take a look!" "Wait here" "You want a tomato?" "What is doing?" "Tomatos, Sausages, golden bacon, We kept a little to you" " Stifle this, stupids!" " Look at that, ash-gray in my tomatos!" "Go!" "Back you devils!" "Frodo!" "Strider!" "Help him Strider!" "He has been stabbed by a Morgul blade" "This is beyond my skill He needs elvish medicine" "Hurry!" "We're 6 days from Rivendel He'll never make it!" "Frodo, Frodo!" "Gandalf!" "Mr. Frodo!" "?" "He's going cold!" "Is he going to die?" "He's passing into the shadow" "He'll soon become a wraith like them" "They're close!" " Sam, do you know the athalus plant?" " Athalus?" " Kingsfoil" " Kingsfoil, that's a weed" " It may help to slow the poison." "Hurry" "What's this, a ranger, caught off his guard?" "Frodo!" "I am Arwen I've come to help you" "Hear my voice Come back into the light" "Who is she?" "She is an elf!" "He's fading" "He's not going to last" "We must get him to my father" " I've been looking for you for 2 days" " Where are you taking him?" "There are 5 wraiths behind you Where the other four are I do not know." "Stay with the hobbits I'll send horses for you." "I'm the faster rider I'll take him" "What are they saying?" "If I can get him across the river the power of my people will protect him" "I do not fear them" "Ride hard, don't look back" "What are you doing!" "Those riders are still out there!" "Give us the hobbit, elf!" "If you want him, come and claim him!" "Frodo no!" "Frodo, don't give in!" "Not now!" "What grace is given me, let it pass to him" "Let him be spared." "Save him" " Where am I?" " You are in the house of Elrond and it is 10 o'clock in the morning, on October the 24th if you want to know" " Gandalf!" " Yes, I'm here!" "And you're lucky to be here too" "A few more hours, and you would have been beyond our aid" "But you had some strength in you My dear hobbit" "What happened, Gandalf?" "Why didn't you meet us?" "Oh, I'm sorry Frodo" "I was delayed" "A friendship with Saruman is not lightly thrown aside" "One ill turn deserves another" "It is over" "Embrace the power of the ring or embrace your own destruction" "There is only one Lord of the Ring" "Only one that that can bind it to rule" "And he does not share power" "So you have chosen death" "Gandalf?" "What is it?" "Nothing, Frodo!" "Frodo!" " Sam!" " Bless you, you're awake!" "Sam has hardly left your side" "We were that worried about you, weren't we, Mr. Gandalf" "By the skills of Lord Elrond, you are beginning to mend" "Welcome to Rivendel Frodo Baggins!" " Bilbo!" " Hello, Frodo, my boy!" "Bilbo!" "Baring back again" ""A Hobbit's Tale", by Bilbo Baggins" " This is wonderful" " I meant to go back" "Wonder the paths of Mirkwood" "Visit Laketown" "See the Lonely Mountain again" "But age have seemed finally caught up with me" "I miss the Shire" "I spent all my childhood pretending I was off somewhere else off with you, on one of your adventures" "But my own adventure turned out to be quite different" "I am not like you Bilbo" "My dear boy..." " Now, what have I forgotten?" " Packed already?" "No harm in being prepared" "Thought you wanted to see the elves, Sam" "I do..." "More than anything" "I did..." "It's just" "We did what Gandalf wanted, didn't we?" "We got the ring this far to Rivendel" "And I thought, seeing now you're on the mend." "We'd be off soon" "Off home!" "You're right, Sam" "We did what we set out to do" "The ring will be safe in Rivendel" "I am ready to go home" "His strength returns" "That wound will never fully heal" "He will carry it the rest of his life" "And yet, to have come so far, still bearing the ring" "The hobbit has showed extraordinary resilience to its evil" "It is a burden he should never have had to bear" "We can ask no more of Frodo" "Gandalf!" "The enemy is moving!" "Sauron's forces are massing in the east" "It's eye is fixed on Rivendel" "And Saruman, you tell me, has betrayed us" "Our list of allies grows thin" "His treachery runs deeper than you know" "The foul card Saruman has crossed Orcs with Goblin men" "He's breeding an army at the cavins of Isengard" "An Army that can move in sunlight, and cover great distance at speed" "Saruman is coming for the ring" "This evil cannot be concealed by the power of the Elves" "We do not have the strength to fight both Mordor and Isengard" "Gandalf!" "The ring cannot stay here" "This peril belongs to all Middle Earth" "They must decide now, how to end it" "The time of the Elves is over" "My people are leaving these shores" "Who will you look to when we've gone?" "The Dwarves?" "Ithey hide in their mountains seeking riches They care nothing for the troubles of others" "It is in Men that we must place our hope" "Men?" "Men are weak" "The race of men is failing" "The blood of Numenor is all but spent" "It's pride and dignity forgotten" "An it's because of Men the ring survived" "I was there Gandalf" "I was there 3.000 years ago... when Isildur took the ring," "I was there the day the strenght of men failed" "Isildur!" "Hurry!" "Follow me!" "I led Isildur into the heart of Mount Doom, where the ring was forged" "The one place it could be destroyed" "Cast it into the fire!" "Destroy it!" "No!" "Isildur!" "It should have ended that day, but evil was allowed to endure" "Isildur kept the ring, the line of kings is broken, there's no strength left in the world of men" "are scattered, divided, leaderless" "There is one who could unite them One who could reclaim the Throne of Gondor" "He turned from that path a long time ago" "He has chosen exile" "The shards of Narsil," "the blade that cut the ring from Sauron's hand" "Still sharp!" "No more than a broken relic!" "Why do you fear the past?" "You are Isildur's heir, not Isildur himself" "You are not bound to his fate" "The same blood flows in my veins," "the same weakness" "Your time will come" "You will face the same evil, and you will defeat it" "You said you'd bind yourself to me, forsaking the immortal life of your people" "And to that I hold" "I would rather share one lifetime with you, than face all the ages of this world alone" "I choose a mortal life!" "You cannot give me this!" "It is mine to give to whom I will..." "Like my heart" "Strangers from distant lands, friends of old" "You have been summoned to answer the threat of Mordor" "Middle Earth stands upon the brink of destruction" "None can escape it!" "You will unite, or you will fall" "Each race is bound this fate, this one doom!" "Bring forth the ring, Frodo" "So it is true!" " The doom of men..." " It is a gift!" "A gift to the foes of Mordor" "Why not use this ring?" "Long has my father, the steward of Gondor, kept the forces of Mordor at bay by the blood of our people are your lands kept safe" "Give Gondor the weapon of the enemy!" "Let us use it against him!" "You cannot wield it!" "None of us can!" "The one ring answers to Sauron alone, it has no other master." "And would a ranger know of this matter?" "This is no mere ranger" "He is Aragorn, son of Arathorn" "You owe him your allegiance" "Aragorn?" "This is Isildur's heir" "An heir to the throne of Gondor" "Gondor has no King..." "Gondor needs no king..." "Aragorn is right, we cannot use it" "You have only one choice" "The ring must be destroyed" "What are we waiting for?" "The ring cannot be destroyed, Gimli, son of Gloin, by any craft that we here posses" "The ring was made in the fires of Mount Doom" "Only there can it be unmade" "It must be taken deep into Mordor and cast back into the firey casem from whence it came!" "One of you must do this" "One does not simply walk into Mordor" "It's black gates are guarded by more than just orcs" "There is evil there that does not sleep" "And the Great Eye is ever watchful" "It is a barren wasteland, riddled with fire and ash and dust" "The very air breathe is a poisonous fume" "Not with ten thousand men could you do this, it is folly!" "Have you heard nothing Lord Elrond has said?" "The ring must be destroyed" "And I suppose you think you're the one to do it" "And if we fail, what then?" "What happens when Sauron takes back what is his?" "I will be dead before I see the ring in the hands of an elf!" "No one trust an elf!" "I will take it!" "I will take it!" "I will take the ring to Mordor!" "Though..." "I do not know the way" "I will help you bear this burden, Frodo Baggins" "As long as is this yours to bear" "If by my life or death, I can protect you," "I will" "You have my sword" "And you have my bow" "And my axe" "You carry the face of us all little one" "If this is indeed the will of the Council, then Gondor will see it done" "Hey!" "Mr. Frodo's not going anywhere without me" "No, indeed, it is hardly possible to separate you, even when he is summoned to a secret Council, and you are not" "Hey!" "We're coming too!" "You'd have to send us home tied up in a sack to stop us!" "Anyway, you need people of intelligence on this sort of..." "Mission..." "Quest..." "Thing..." "Well that rules you out, Pippin!" "Nine companions" "So be it!" "You shall be the Fellowship of the Ring" "Right!" "Where are we going?" "My old sword, Sting" "Here, take it, take it!" "It's so light!" "Yes, yes... made by the elves, you know?" "The blade glows blue when orcs are close, and it's at times like that, my lad, when you have to be extra careful" "Here's a pretty thing" "Mithryl!" "As light as a feather, and as hard as dragon's scales" "Let me see you put it on" "Oh!" "..." "Mi old ring!" "I should... very much like to hold it again, one last time" "I'm sorry I would disapoint you, my boy" "I'm sorry that..." "you would carry this burden" "I'm sorry for everything!" "We must hold this course west to the Misty Mountains for 40 days" "If our luck holds, the gap of Rohan will still be open to us" "From there, our road turns east..." "to Mordor 2, 1, 5..." "Good!" "Very good!" "Move your feet!" " You look good, Pippin!" " Thanks" "Faster!" "Anyone wants to ask for my opinion, wich I knew clear not," "I'd say we were taking the long way round" "Gandalf!" "We could pass through the Mines of Moria" "My cousin Balin would give us a royal welcome" "No, Gimli I would not take the roads through Moria unless I had no other choice" "Sorry!" "Get him!" "For the Shire!" "Get him!" "Foot him, foot on him!" "He got my arm, he got my arm..." "What is that?" "Nothing, it's just a wisp of cloud" "It's moving fast" "Against the wind" "Crebain from Duneland!" "Hide!" "Get down!" "Spies of Saruman!" "The passage south is being watched" "We must take the pass of Caradhras!" "Boromir!" "It is a strange fate for which should suffer so much fear and doubt" "One so small a thing" "Such a little thing" "Boromir!" "Give the ring to Frodo!" "As you wish" "I care not!" "So Gandalf, you tried to lead them over Caradhras" "And if that fails" "Where then will you go?" "If the mountain defeats you, willl you risk the more dangerous road?" "There is a foul voice on the air" "It's Saruman!" "He's trying to bring down the mountain!" "Gandalf!" "We must turn back!" "No!" "We must get off the mountain!" "Make for the gap of Rohan!" "Or take the west road to White City!" "The Gap of Rohan takes us too close to Isengard!" "If we cannot pass over the mountain, let us go under it!" "Let us go through the Mines of Moria" "Moria!" "You fear to go into those mines" "The Dwarves delt too greedily, and too deep" "You know what they awoke in the darkness of Khazad-dum" "Shadow and flame..." "Let the ring bearer decide..." "Frodo?" "We will go through the mines" "So be it!" "The walls of Moria!" "Let's see..." "Ithildin!" "It reflects only starlight and moonlight" "It reads:" "The doors of Durin, Lord of Moria" "Speak friend and enter" "What d'you suppose that means?" "Oh, it's quite simple" "If you're a friend, you speak the password, and the doors will open" "Mines are no place for a pony" "Even one so brave as Bill" "Bye bye!" "Bill" "Go on, Bill." "Go on!" "Don't worry Sam He knows the way out" "Do not disturb the water" "It's a riddle!" "Speak 'friend', and enter" "What's the elvish word for friend?" "Humm?" "..." "Mellon" "Soon, you will enjoy the famous hospitality of the dwarves" "Roaring fires!" "Malt beer!" "Red meat of a bone!" "This, my friend, is the home of my cousin Balin" "And they call it a mine." "A MINE!" "This is no mine" "It's a tomb!" "NO!" "Goblins!" "We make for the Gap of Rohan" "We should never have come here" "Now get out of here!" "Get out!" "Into the mines!" "Legolas!" "Into the cave!" "We now have but one choice" "We must face the long dark of Moria" "Be on your guard." "There are older and fouler things than orcs in the deep places of the world" "Quiet..." "It's a four day journey to the other side" "Let us hope that our presence may go unnoticed" "I have no memory of this place" " Are we lost?" " No" "I think we are" "Shhhh..." "Gandalf is thinking!" " Merry!" " What?" "I'm hungry" "There's something down there" " It's Gollum!" " Gollum?" "He's been following us for 3 days" "He escaped the dungeons of Barad-Dur" "Escaped." "Or set loose..." "He hates and loves the ring as he hates and loves himself" "He will never be rid of his need for it" "It's a pity Bilbo didn't kill him when he had the chance" "Pity?" "It was pity that stayed Bilbo's hand" "Many that live deserve death" "Some that die deserve life" "Can you give it to them, Frodo?" "Do not be too eager to deal out death and judgement" "Even the very wise cannot see all ends" "My heart tells me that Gollum has some part to play yet, for good or evil, before this is over" "The pity of Bilbo may rule the fate of men" "I wish the ring had never come to me..." "I wish none of this had happened..." "So do all who lives to see such times but that is not for them to decide, all we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us" "There are other forces at work in this world for the besides of the evil" "Bilbo was meant to find the ring" "In which case you also were meant to have it" "And that is an encouraging thought" "It's that way!" "He's remembered!" "No... but the air doesn't smell so foul down here" "Every time you doubt, always follow your nose" "It'll be risk a little more of light here" "The hall" "The great ground of dwarf city of ?" "There's an eye open ?" "No!" "No!" "Here lies Balin, son of Fundi," "Lord of Moria" "He is dead then" "It's as I feared" "We must move on." "We cannot linger" "They have taken the bridge and the second hall" "We have barred gates but cannot hold them for long" "The ground shakes" "Drums..." "Drums in the deep..." "We cannot get out..." "A shadow moves in the dark..." "We cannot get out..." "They are coming..." "Fool of a Took!" "Throw yourself in next time, and rid us of your stupidity!" "Frodo!" "Orcs!" "Get back!" "Stay close to Gandalf!" "They have a cave troll" "Let them come!" "There is one dwarf yet in Moria that still draws blood!" "They don't get the hang of us!" "Frodo!" "Aragorn!" "Aragorn!" "Frodo!" "Frodo!" "Frodo!" "He's alive!" "I'm alright." "I'm not hurt" "You should be dead" "That spear would have skewered a wild boar" "I think there's more to this hobbit than meets the eye" "Mythril!" "You are full of surprises, Mr. Baggins!" "To the bridge of Khazad-Dum!" "What is this new devilry?" "A balrog!" "A demon of the ancient world!" "This foe is beyond any of you!" "RUN!" "Gandalf!" "Lead them on Aragorn!" "The bridge is near!" "Do as I say!" "Swords are no more use here!" "Gandalf!" "Merry!" "Pippin!" "Sam!" "Nobody tosses a dwarf!" "No!" "Not the beard!" "Lean forward!" "Over the bridge!" "Fly!" "You cannot pass!" "Gandalf!" "I am a servant of the Secret Fire, wielder of the flame of Anor!" "The dark fire will not avail you, flame of Udun!" "Go back to the shadow!" "YOU SHALL NOT PASS!" "No!" "No!" "Gandalf!" "Fly, you fools!" "Noooo!" "Aragorn!" "Legolas, get them up!" "Give them a moment for pity's sake" "By nightfall these hills will be swarming with orcs" "We must reach the woods of Lothlorien" "Come Boromir, Legolas, Gimli!" "Get them up!" "On your feet, Sam!" "Frodo?" "!" "Frodo!" "Stay close, you hobbits!" "They say that a great sorceress lives in these woods" "An elf witch, of terrible power!" "All who look upon her fall under her spell" "Frodo!" "And are never seen again!" "You are coming to us, besides the footsteps of doom!" "You bring great evil here, great peril" "Mr. Frodo?" "Well, here's one dwarf she won't ensnare so easily!" "I have the eyes of a hawk and the ears of a fox!" "Oh!" "The dwarf breathes so loud, we could have shot him in the dark!" "Aragorn!" "These woods are perilous!" "We should go back!" "You have entered the realm of the Lady of the Wood" "You cannot go back" "Come, she is waiting" "Eight there are here, yet nine there were set out from Rivendel" "Tell me, where is Gandalf, for I much desire to speak with him" "He has fallen into shadow" "The quest stands upon the edge of a knife" "Stray but a little, and it will fail to the ruin of all" "Yet hope remains, while company is true" "Do not let your hearts be troubled, go now and rest, for you are weary with sorrow and much toil" "Tonight, we will..." "Welcome, Frodo of the Shire, one who has seen the Eye!" "A lament for Gandalf" "What did they say about him?" "I have not the heart to tell you" "For me the grief is still too near" "Take some rest" "These borders are well protected" "I will find no rest here" "I heard a voice inside my head" "She spoke of my father and the fall of Gondor" "She said to me, even now there is hope left but I cannot see it!" "It's long since we had any hope" "My father is a noble man, but his rule if failing" "and our..." "Our people lose faith" "He looks to me to make things right, and I, I would do it" "I would see the glory of Gondor restored" "Have you ever seen it, Aragorn?" "The white tower of Ecthelium?" "Glimmering like a spike of burning silver" "It's banner caught high in the morning breeze" "Have you ever been called home by the clear ringing of silver trumpets?" "I have seen the White City..." "Long ago" "One day our paths will lead us there" "And the tower guard shall take up the call" "For the Lords of Gondor have returned" "Will you look into the mirror?" "What will I see?" "Even the wisest cannot tell" "For the mirror shows many things" "Things that were, things that are," "and some things" "that have not yet come to pass" "I know what it is you saw" "For it is also in my mind" "It is what will come to pass if you should fail" "The fellowship is breaking" "It has already begun" "He will try to take the ring" "You know of whom I speak" "One by one, it will destroy them all" "If you ask it of me," "I will give you the one ring" "You offer it to me freely" "I do not deny that my heart has greatly desired this" "In the place of a Dark you would have a Queen" "Not dark but beautiful and terrible as Sauron" "Treacherous as the sea" "Stronger than the foundations of the earth" "All shall look me and despair" "I pass the test" "I will diminish, and go into the west" "and remain Galadriel" "I cannot do this alone" "You are a ring bearer, Frodo" "To bear a ring of power is to be alone" "This task was appointed to you, and if you do not find a way," "no one will" "Then I know what I must do, it's just," "I'm afraid to do it" "Even the smallest person can change the course of the future" "Do you know how the orcs first came into being?" "They were elves, once, taken by the dark powers, tortured, and mutilated" "A ruined, and terrible form of life" "And now, perfected, my fighting Urukai" "Whom do you serve?" "Saruman" "Hunt them down!" "Do not stop until they are found!" "You do not know pain, you do not know fear!" "You will taste man flesh!" "One of the half-lings carries something of great value" "Bring them to me alive and unspoilt" "Kill the others!" "Farewell, Frodo Baggins!" "I give you the light, Elendil, our most beloved star, Namarie" "May it be a light for you in dark places, where all other lights go out" "Frodo!" "The Aragornath" "Long have I desired to look upon the Kings of old" "My king" "We cross the lake at nightfall" "Hide the boats, and continue on foot" "We approach Mordor from the north" "Oh yes?" "Just a simple matter of finding our way through Amen-Muil?" "An impassable labyrinth of razor sharp rocks, and after that, it gets even better!" "The festering, stinking marshlands, as far as the eye can see" "That is our road" "I suggest you take some rest and recover your strength, Master Dwarf" "Recover my...!" "We should leave now" "No." "Orcs patroll the eastern shore, we must wait for cover of darkness" "It is not the eastern shore that worries me" "A shadow and a threat has been growing in my mind" "Something draws near" "I can feel it!" "Ho, ho!" "Recover strength...!" "You don't hear to him, young hobbit" "Where's Frodo?" "None of us should wander alone" "You least of all" "So much depends on you..." "Frodo?" "I know why you seek solitude" "You suffer." "I see it day by day" "You sure you do not suffer needlessly" "There are other ways, Frodo" "Other paths that we might take" "I know what you would say, and it would seem like wisdom, but for the warning in my heart" "Warning?" "Against what?" "We're all afraid, Frodo, but to let that fear drive us to destroy what hope we have" " Don't you see, it's madness?" " There is no other way!" "I ask only for the strength to defend my people!" " If you would but lend me the ring..." " No!" "Why do you recoil?" "I am no thief!" "You are not yourself!" "What chance do you think you have?" "They will find you!" "They will take the ring!" "And you will beg for death before the end!" "You fool!" "It is not your safe but for an unfortunate casualty!" "That could have been mine!" "It should have been mine!" "Give it to me!" "No!" "Give me the ring!" "No!" "I see your mind" "You will take the ring to Sauron!" "You will betray us!" "You go to your death, and the death of us all!" "Curse you!" "Curse you!" "And all the halflings!" "Frodo?" "Frodo?" "I must find him!" "Please, Frodo" "Frodo, I'm sorry!" "Frodo?" "It has taken Boromir" "Where is the ring?" "Stay away!" "I swore to protect you!" "Can you protect me from yourself?" "!" "Would you destroy it?" "I would have gone with you to the end" "Into the very fires of Mordor" "I know" "Look after the others, specially Sam," "he will not understand" "Come, Frodo!" "Run!" "RUN!" "Mr. Frodo?" "!" "Find the Half-lings!" "Find the Half-lings!" "Elendil!" "Aragorn, go!" "Frodo!" "Hide here!" "Quick!" "Come on!" "What's he doing?" "He's leaving!" "No!" "Run, Frodo." "Go!" "Hey, hey you!" "Over here!" "Over here!" "Hey!" "Over here!" "This way!" " It's working!" " I know it's working!" "Run!" "The horn of Gondor!" "Boromir!" "Go!" "Go!" "They took the little ones!" "Stay still!" "Frodo?" "!" "Where is Frodo?" "!" "I let Frodo go" "Then you did what I could not" "I tried to take the ring from him" "The ring is beyond our reach now" "Forgive me!" "I did not see it" "I have failed you all" "No, Boromir" "You fought bravely" "You've got your honor" "Leave it!" "It is over" "The world of men will fall, and the whole world will come to darkness" "My city to ruin..." "I do not know what strength is in my blood" "But I swear to you, I will not let the White City fall" "Nor our people fail" "Our people" "I would have followed you, my brother my captain," "my King!" "Be at peace, son of Gondor" "Frodo!" "I wish the ring had never come to me" "I wish none of this had happened" "So do all who live to see such times, but that is not for them to decide" "All you have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to you" "Frodo!" "No!" "Frodo!" "Frodo!" "No, Sam!" "Go back, sam!" "I'm going to Mordor alone!" "Of course you are!" "And I'm coming with you!" "You can't swim!" "Sam!" "Sam!" "I made a promise, Mr. Frodo" "A promise!" "Don't you leave him Samwise Gamgee..." "And I don't mean to" "I don't mean to" "Oh, Sam!" "Come on then" "Hurry!" "Frodo and Sam have reached the eastern shore" " You mean not to follow them" " Frodo's fate is no longer in our hands" "Let us all have been in vain The fellowship has failed" "Not if we hold true to each other" "We will not abandon Merry and Pippin to torment and death" "Not while we have strength left!" "Leave all that can be spared behind" "We travel light!" "Let's hunt some orc!" "YES!" "Ha, ha!" "Mordor..." "I hope the others find a safer road" "Strider will look after" "I don't suppose we'll ever see them again" "We may yet, Mr. Frodo We may..." "Sam" "I'm glad you're with me."
