But, without Frodo, all of Aragorn's travails and actions would've been for nought. Had Frodo not gone to Mt. Doom, Sauron would've still won the day. Even Aragorn knew that which is why he fought the final delaying battle hoping to give Frodo enough time to get rid of the ring.

Aragorn is the uncrowned king of the north-western part of Middle-earth. Although Aragorn was a direct descendant of the Kings of Numenor and the rightful claimant to the Kingdom of Gondor, he first came to the knowledge of the Hobbits in his guise as a Ranger, a collection of rather grim looking men who travelled throughout Middle-earth, protecting its inhabitants from evil. This usually thankless task was probably the main reason that there had been peace and prosperity in the Shire for so long. Aragorn was also the keeper of Anduril, "the sword that was broken" and when it was eventually re-forged it signalled his intent to re-take his throne and to rule over the new age of men. However, while Sauron still held power in Mordor, Middle-earth would eventually fall to the Dark Lord. Aragorn was a key figure in the Fellowship, and without his courage, wisdom and strength, the quest would never have succeeded. -Michèle Immigration site: <http://LadySun1969.tripod.com> The Miata: <http://members.cardomain.com/bpituley> Tiggercam: <http://www.tiggercam.co.uk> --------------------------------------------------------- "I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God who has endowed us with sense, reason, and intellect has intended us to forgo their use.

Although I'm down with the manipulation of the minds of men. That fits. Saruman is a wizard who became corrupted by the ring. A Wizard, leader of the White Council, and the highest of the Istari. He is very wise in ring lore, and has made study of the One Ring his life's work. The Free Peoples (including the Elves) have long considered Saruman the wisest of the wise, unaware of the darkness in his heart created by his lust for the One Ring and its power. His ambition overcame him and he created his armies to capture the fellowship and bring him the ring. He is a master of manipulating the minds of men, which he bred with orcs creating a horrible half-breed. Once a great and powerful wizard, the secretive Saruman may have been corrupted by the Dark Lord, Sauron. -----Original Message----- From: Veitch, Michael [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, December 07, 2001 9:14 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: LOTR Haiku Well find out what sort of LOTR character you are before seeing the film http://www.lifesupportal.com/LOTR Mike > -----Original Message----- > From: Tener, Richard [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: 07 December 2001 15:10 > To: Exchange Discussions > Subject: RE: LOTR Haiku > > I had a dream > that I was watching > the lord of the rings. > > -----Original Message----- > From: Doug Hampshire [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Friday, December 07, 2001 9:46 AM > To: Exchange Discussions > Subject: LOTR Haiku > > > Lord of The Rings near > Only 12 more days to wait > I'm wetting my pants > > _________________________________________________________________ > List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm > Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp > To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > _________________________________________________________________ > List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm > Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp > To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
