#lordoftherings #frodo #tolkien
Bathed in the fiery glow of Mount Doom's cavern, Frodo grapples with haunting doubts and twisted visions. The weight of the Ring erodes his resolve, fracturing the bonds of camaraderie with Sam. The burning gaze of Sauron consume the innocence of Frodo's soul. As he descends into madness, Frodo's mind is clouded by mistrust and suspicion. The lure of the Ring's power tugs at his soul, blurring his judgment and sowing seeds of doubt. Despite the shadows that threaten to consume him, Frodo's journey from innocence to heroism unfolds. His quest from the Shire, to Rivendell and through Morder took him on the brink of giving in to the will of Sauron and the One Ring.

I feel like a lot of people give Frodo shit for losing this resolve to finally cast the ring into the fire when he reached Mount Doom
The unfortunate truth is that when the ring reaches its point of creation, the ring’s power of domination cannot be fought. No matter how resolute, you are doomed to fail, as it was made that way. The fact that they still somehow were able to destroy it (through Gollum) is monumental in itself.
Agreed! Frodo made it so far despite everything, and the fact that the ring was destroyed at all is incredible. It's easy to forget just how powerful the ring's influence was, especially at Mount Doom. Kudos to Gollum for that unexpected assist!
Great video man. Listened twice :)
Idk if you have an e-mail, but you inspired a little imagined scene of Frodo in Lothlorien you could use in a video. Not worried about credit and all that, its just a few paragraphs.
No worries if not, hope you keep up the great work! :)
Thanks man, I appreciate it!
My email is on my channel 👍🏻
This is awesome
Thank you!
Yet also the mere fact that he sought to give up the ring shows his character, for who else ever willingly offers the ring to another? It is a grave burden but an obsession. The fact that he sought to give it to Gandalf and to Galadriel shows that he could bear its burden, because he could give it away. And Frodo did not fail in ultimately being unable to destroy the ring by his will alone. The whole point is that no one person could destroy it alone, that threads of fate and interaction, acts of mercy and violence, all had to come together in one moment to allow for the ring’s destruction. Without so many, so many who lived and died and suffered and fought, the ring was too malevolent to be destroyed. I see the point of its destruction as showing no one is acting alone in the tapestry of destiny, we all play a role to ultimately fight evil and darkness, there is no one hero that can win in single combat. Even without gollum the ring would not have been destroyed, without Bilbo’s pity for gollum in staying his hand with Sting, without a thousand small acts of heroism and character from many characters, the ring would not be destroyed.
That's a great take! And you're quite right-Frodo's journey shows that the burden of the Ring was too great for any one person to bear or destroy alone. It really highlights how every action, big or small, played a crucial role in the ultimate victory. Gollum, Bilbo, Gandalf, Galadriel-all of them had a part in shaping the fate of the Ring.
@@The.Lore.Seeker In my own life it has often made me think on small choices. That it is a series of small choices by countless individuals that ultimately serves to work good. I like that it was not one hero that could destroy the ring alone. And it dovetails with Gandalf’s real power and the power of his ring. His power was to stir the hearts of men and women to courage, to be their best, to give them hope in darkness. Sauron’s magic was crude and apparent and physical. The power of good in Tolkien is the gentle nudge at the right moment, it is giving strength of spirit when despair would be easy. Evil is blatant in Tolkien’s work, apparent, it is greed and power and domination, while good is subtle, Gandalf’s magic does not frequently manifest as attacks or vulgar displays of power. It rests in stirring others to make the hard but right choice and play whatever role is intended for them in Iluvotar’s ultimate plan.
That’s such a great way to put it! The idea that good is subtle and works through small, meaningful choices really resonates. I can relate that to my personal life, I find happiness in the smallest of things.
Gandalf’s power, like you said, wasn’t about flashy magic but inspiring courage and hope in others. It’s such a beautiful contrast to Sauron’s brute force. Tolkien’s message of quiet, steady goodness making a bigger impact than obvious power is something that really sticks with you. It's unbelievable how Tolkien crafted his universe!
