Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Out of the fires of Orodruin, and forgotten for many centuries, the One Ring has passed unto me. I have had the pleasure of purchasing this artifact from a merchant for far below it's worth, in exchange I agreed to let my opinions of this Ring be known to the world*. I believe it may be safe to say this merchant knew not of the treasure they traded away. Unlike the other great rings, the One Ring holds no gem and has no intricate designs on it, at least at first glance. However on closer inspection you can see in elven runes on both the inside and outside of the ring, and in the language of the black speech the words (translated into English): One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them, One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them. As the Ring has traveled from the realm of Middle Earth, it has lost some of it's magical properties. Since I have been in possession of it, I have not turned invisible or seen the invisible (wraiths or otherwise). The Ring has remained the same size from the time I have bore it to present, without it leaving me of it's own will. And I have not felt the presence of any other ring bearers. I will say that I have had a strong urge to keep it and the thought of losing it troubles me greatly. I have not verified Isildur's research by testing the mettle of this Ring, nor would I wish any harm to come upon it. But after several days of wearing and normal hand washing, it appears to have not changed in the slightest. When I first donned this Ring, it fit well as the merchant described it's size accurately, but it weighed my hand down with a weight I was not accustomed to. It is, however, becoming a natural weight to me, although quite a bit heavier than my wedding band. It is also fairly thick too, but not too much to be troublesome. If, for whatever reason, if this Ring didn't fit or was uncomfortable, a chain secured around the neck will keep this close to the heart at all times. All in all, I believe I will keep my precious for quite some time. *During a promotional period I received this ring at a discount in exchange for an honest review.
