    The one ring was what fueled the rings extending their lifespan. They immediately died and their souls left Arda. There ya go. It’s literally explained in the book.

    Your videos are okay to listen to, but if I’m being honest they could be written a lot better. You just keep repeating the same information over and over. This video could have been like 3 minutes long if it was written coherently and if you said each thing once instead of like 10x. Also the frequent AI mispronunciations are annoying and take me out of it

    This video brought to mind, for me, the memory I have of Joseph Stalin. Hitler was a crazy person who got out of control and those do happen from time to time. Joseph Stalin was a different beast from the outset.I read these books for the first time when Stalin was swallowing up Eastern Europe, country by country and nothing could be done about it. He was killing his own countrymen without discrimination, purging great sections of humanity he thought were unworthy. Eight million Russians died of starvation during one such purge, and he was equally blinded by prejudice as Hitler. No one knows how many people died during his regime but estimates go from 25 to 100 million. Hideki Tojo was worse in some ways than either of those two. Tojo referred to Chinese people as "logs" to be used for whatever purpose was at hand. Japanese soldiers roasted Chinese children as their parents watched. Area 731 is another story entirely. The thing that pulls a threat through the things all these leaders and others both before and since have done is that these men had lost their humanity entirely. Compassion, love, innocence and healing were unknown to them throughout their lives. Fathers like Alois Hitler, Besarion Jughashvili, and Hidenori Tojo had one mindset in common: harsh discipline to their respective children and extreme violence against women. Whatever the origin, be it a magic ring or an abusive parent, evil comes into the lives of such men, and greed for power somehow fills the sinkhole- an inner vacuum of emotional needs, unmet all their lives. Tolkien hated allegory but there are similar tales of such abuse that transmuted people into whisps of smoke where a soul should have arisen. Having lost any chance of human compassion, The Nine could never have what they wanted: dominance over others. The horrific truth is that no amount of power would satisfy beings such as them and they would have gone on like a gerbil on a wheel, chasing nothing and going nowhere.

    Once the One Ring was destroyed the surviving 8 Nazgul's rings lost power like the 3 and the 7 and as they had lived far far beyond their mortal years they died and likely crumbled to dust, it cannot be known if they felt anything in the moment between being freed and dying.

      Until Sauron made the One Ring, the other rings he persuaded Celebrimbor to make in Eregion were not bound to it nor to any will except those which they conferred to their bearers. When Sauron put on the One Ring, his will began to dominate the other rings and could only be resisted by their bearers removing them. This the three rings held by the Elves and Galdalf did, and so they were not corrupted. Whereas the nine rings held by men were seduced by the promises of power and their own ambition to command others, heedless of the consequences for themselves. For the power in the ring which each of the Nine held was subject to the One, and should last only as long as it too should last. So when it was unmade in Orodruin, the Nine rings and their bearers were also unmade.

    Wait, what was the Nazgûl a stark reminder of? I'm not sure I'm following after the first 10 times the line was repeated ad nauseam. 🙄
    I'm going to be harsh here. We are witnessing the death of art, writing, and self expression as a result of these lazy, poorly produced, and nefarious AI "content creators."
    It's sad because it's pushing out the incredible content creators, who put in actual effort. The ones with actual talent that script, voice, record, hire artists or share their own, etc.
    Is this really what we want becoming the norm and are we actually going to settle for it?
    As the recent saying goes. I want AI to do my laundry and dishes. Not to write my poetry or paint for me.
    But when you look at the dumbing down of content creation as a whole, due to AI taking over the creative process, it's depressing. It's getting to the point where impressionable people are losing literacy and are unable to discern this stuff from original work. We are slipping further and further into idiocracy.

    I personally only watched the movies. But i like to think that they're lifeforce was maintained by the One Ring, since they're Rings were slaves to The One. So with the destruction of The One, either they're faded entirely, or they faded slowly, almost like being mortal again, until they faded entirely. Thought about it cause i was thinking of who could be the next big bad. Thought maybe Kahmûl could be since the Witch-King is dead, but he wouldn't be for long since the whole life force thing. Plus, they arent mentioned in Tolkien's New Shadow prologue. Can't be Sauraman cause he did make a Ring, but it was imperfect and a far cry from Sauron's, so his spirit is just displaced and formless and powerless. Honestly, Men are the next big bad. New Shadow was all about that. Arda is supposed to be out workd in a fantasy origin, so eventually, the world would become 🌎🌍 meaning, all history we know, like WW1 and WW2 and any other horrible event done or yet to be down by Man, is gonna happen. And thats because!; Morgoth! Morgoth made his own "ring"; Arda itself. He dispersed his power and soul into the very foundations of Arda, which is how black magic and neceomancy and stuff are even possible; its literally calling on Morgoth's power. And that power can still corrupt, not in a focused sense. More like sewping into whoever it can. Hence why we'd have evil people now and witchcraft and stuff i imagine

      Defeated. And to be fair she wouldn’t have stood a chance of it wasn’t for Merry’s barrow blade.
      The whole “i am no man” doesn’t do anything to kill him
      Bc witchking’s spell makes him nigh invincible compared the Mortals(Mankind) on which he is counted with them no longer.
      The Ringwraith’s might be trapped to wear their rotting sinews & bones but they are irrevocably Dead just caught between not alive anymore and can’t die. So when Angmar was felled by Eowyn what was left of his spirit or him was utterly houseless as were the other 8 when mount doom Krakatoa'd off. Whether they may still pass through the halls of Mandos, remain behind as impotent shades, or join Morgoth in the void; we may never know.
      But their “deaths”/destructions weren’t their true end just the end to their tyranny on Arda.

      @@AerYdmyg no mention if he survived having his head cut off by Aowen after being distracted by Merry and his blade. Immoral or not. It is hard surviving having your head cut off. The movie does not show his head being cut off. But the book clearly states that is how the battle ended for him. Hard to come back from that. Medusa in Greek mythology was immortal too, but died when her head was cut off by the hero. Cutting a head off is usually pretty final for most beings. Unless you are a necromancer, a god or goddess, or truly an immortal being of some kind that can NEVER die of ANYTHING head cutting off blows are typically final.

      Bc the curse was broken, he’s still Bound to Sauron but now he’s free of his bones.
