dragons
 

This is probably a stupid question so sorry i apologize before hand.

It has been said that dragon-fire could melt and consume the Rings of Power, but there is not now any dragon left on earth in which the old fire is hot enough; nor was there ever any dragon, not even Ancalagon the Black, who could have harmed the One Ring

If not even Ancalagon could harm the one ring why has it been said that dragon fire could harm, or am i just stupid and the passage is saying that theres no truth in that since Ancalagon couldnt even harm it and he was lord of the dragons.

Hello, Demente! Welcome to the 'Downs [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] I'm not sure if I understood your post correctly. I think you already answered the question yourself - dragon flame could harm the Rings but not the One Ring.

yeah i miss read the passage sorry for any inconvenience >;D
