"I am a servant of the secret fire, wielder of the Flame of Anor. Go back to the shadow. The dark fire will not avail you, Flame of Udûn! You shall not pass!"<P>For one, Gandalf wears Narya, the great red ring given to him by Cirdan. That may be what he means by the "Flame of Anor" and less likely the secret fire. "Flame of Udun" is of course the balrog itself.<P> <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>where is udun? isnt it near the black gate of mordor? <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>*Ahem*... Udûn is that lovely place we mortals call Hell... I believe it was another name for Angband, the stronghold of Morgoth during the First Age. That is where the Balrogs were bred.
