March 28th, 2021: Of the Rings of Power and the Third Age
Quote Prompt
“Thus the Wise were troubled, but none as yet perceived that Curunír had turned to dark thoughts and was already a traitor in heart: for he desired that he and no other should find the Great Ring, so that he might wield it himself and order all the world to his will. Too long he had studied the ways of Sauron in hope to defeat him, and now he envied him as a rival rather than hated his works.”
Summary Prompt
Peace follows the downfall of Sauron, but a threat ever lingers in those he turned to his cause.
Thematic Prompt
It is difficult to perceive a threat that comes from someone so close to us, so much so that we might become corrupted ourselves without proper care. Reflect on one of the many cases when someone did, or could, become corrupted due to an outside force.
