What would have happened to Nenya if Galadriel took the One Ring?

[Tar-Palantir]

not true,
sauron wanted the elven rings so that he could increase his power.
if Galadrial took the one ring, she would have been even more powerfull

Sauron wanted the elves, not necessarily the power of their rings. With his one ring he could have descried where the elvish enclaves were - seen into their minds - und hence, destroy them, enslave them. Which was probably one of the first things on his 'to do' list, which provides the foremost necessity of hiding the three.

Re: Nenya, I do not think the elven rings were coherent (for lack of a better word) in the way we see the One Ring appearing, rather I believe they simply work one way, and only using the powers with which they were imbued. Even the One Ring might do good deeds for a short time, in the same vein I believe that Nenya, Narya and Vilya could all do evil with their powers, depending on the heart of the wielder - the difference is that I don't believe the three would convert a evil mind to good, whereas in vice versa that is the major dilemna.
