Summary: Sauron saw only the ring.





Sauron saw only the ring, (his work, and His own, oh that there had been no betrayal, no matter that He had not made this one, Durin’s, but only he), not map nor key nor hand that skill had shaped, only the gem-lit, rune-etched, vibrant, vital ring: first wrought, last remaining of the Seven. It would not slide, so the substrate must come too. So easily taken, and without it, what worth had that which carried it to Him? That brittle flesh had failed already, had it not?

But Tharkûn knew Thráin to be a person, and heard his plea.
