Gorwingel has just left Hobbiton.
Ring

Interesting topic, maybe in a way Tolkien was putting in a message (he had a lot of messages in the books). Because isn't the ring supposed to kind of represent technology and industry, and you know how we can kind of get addicted to technology and things like that. So maybe Tolkien was kind of saying that kind of stuff is bad for you, and if you get addicted to it than it can cause you major problems. I know other people could probably do a much better response to this than me, and I probably made a lot of mistakes, but this was just the first thing that popped into my head.
