Then it's either Bilbo or Frodo, and Bilbo fits better, because he visited Taur-nu-Fuin

Assuming my guess is correct, here's the explanation:
Under shadow, under earth, -In subterranean halls in Mirkwood. By foul magics hid from sight. -Made invisible by the Ring. To the deepest place I venture, And its denizen bring to light. -Thorin was imprisoned "far down in a deep place".

I was expecting to decoy you all by making it all sound evil (hence 'denizen' in particular), but Urwen clocked immediately that 'brought to light' implied a good character. hS |

I did that with Huan once. Before your time, I think.
For salvation given, From a cold hand taken That vows be kept In a land forsaken. Brought down years uncounted, From lands sea-riven, From a cold hand taken For salvation given.

That also elicited my silly Les Mis comment. Valjean sings 'And I will bring her [Cosette] to the light.'

Yes, and that's the correct explanation (with the last bit referring to Arvedui giving the ring to the Lossoth). But I'm afraid Pervinca got in before you, so it's her turn.

Take it if you like, Urwen. I'd have been a little slower if I'd stopped to write explanations.
