Alternative scenario regarding One Ring's destruction - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I was thinking the other day about how some of the Elves believed that when the One Ring was destroyed that the Three would become free of it's influence and their powers would still be (as opposed to fading).

If that had been correct, how do you think that would have shapened things in the next chapter of Middle-Earth? Would the Elves still be there for an indefinite amount of time. I suppose technically if the Three would still hold their powers then so would the Nine (or Eight, seeing as the Witch King was slayed). Maybe the eight remaining Nazgul would become free of the influence of the One completely and they would be the new threat to Middle-earth?

What do you think?
