nice try Elrond
page 281, The Hobbit
<u>Gandalf:</u>
<blockquote>
Quote:<hr> "The North will be freed from that horror (Sauron/The Necromancer) for many long years, I hope. Yet I wish that it were banished from the world!"<hr></blockquote>
<u>Elrond:</u>
<blockquote>
Quote:<hr> "It would be well indeed,
but I fear that will not come about in this age of the world, or for many after."<hr></blockquote>
(after I typed all this out I started thinking that Sauron probably wasn't banished from the world but only depleted of his power. But we all know what Elrond meant anyway.)
