I am sure that everyone who watch the lord of the ring movies didn't know how the story started .. Let 's review it
when J. R. R. Tolkien start writing "The Lord of the Rings" Trilogy .. i think he wasn't aware that it is one of the most intense stories in the history of all stories !!.
The history of the Lord of the Rings and the Hobbit is very, very large .. !!
imagine there are a Ph.D. and literary research in this story only !!
If you have watched these movies, I'm 100% sure you didn't know how the story started .. Who is Gandalf .. What is the Eye and the dwarfs and the mountain .... You did not know how all of this started ??
I will try to summarize the story :
All ages begin with one entity called Eru Ilúvatar
The greatest of all things is considered God .. Eru was the only entity. Only existence and living to the end, he decided to
creates a group of objects around him and serve him and called them "angels - the ainurs"
the ainurs were the highest beings and in the second place after God.
As it is said in the religions that the angels have specializations in the tasks, Eru divided his angels into two levels
the first level and the highest, namely the "valar" and they were 15 angels, but they were responsible for managing all the needs. The king of the seas, the king of forests, the queen of the land and the king of death, and so on ..
In the second place remained the rest of the angels and their name is "the maiar" , although they are angels , but they were in a lower level and all their mission is the service of the 15 angels"the valar".
But the maiar also need those who serve them like they serve "the valar" ,
so the maiars decided to choose among them five angels ( the 5 lord of the rings wizards ) and send them to the earth on form of human bodies, so that they would be deputy to them and protect people from all evil
The 5 wizards were
-Alatar
-Pallando
-Saruman
-Radagast
-and Gandalf the grey
The god Aero was creating the universe with the help of 15 mighty angels "the valar" By singing ... yes by singing .. according to the novel
Of the 15 angels, there was an angel with a strength and intelligence called Mircor He said: "Because I am unique from them .. Why should I sing like them and be just one similar to them, although I am stronger than them and the more intelligent than them
so he decided to sing differently and separately from the rest of the 15 and unfortunately all the evil in this world began because of his singing
When Milcor began to sing in a different way some of the maiar "the lesser angels' joined him called Polroge ..Polroge is
the fiery monster who was trying to prevent Gandalf from crossing his way .. this may be explained to you how gandalf
defeated him because he had the same power .. both of them are the maiar ..don't forget
Each one of the 15 largest angels had the ability to create special and unique creatures . One of them created the giant eagles who were helping Gandalf, the second creating the sex of the dwarfs who were famous for war and Blacksmithing , and one created the giant species of trees that were helping the hobbit , and one created the hobbit, who are considered to be a species less than humans except that their age is very, very, very, very, and their size is too small than other
Milcor decided to create a strong and evil creatures, he created the dragons who were in the castle of gold and created giants were used in the Ork in wars
You may wonder after all of this ... What God Aero created ?
he created the most preferred sexes in all creatures, namely the goblin and human beings, and their supermajority is a matter among all the creatures of angels , But he loved humans more .. so he made them not immortal and make humans live very short time and made them able to sing just like him which make all creatures jealousy from them
Milcor after seeing what the God made, tried to create a human like the god Aero and tried to sing to creat them , but he create a completely deformed sex "the Ork"
God Aero began to feel that Milcor Will rebel him and disobeyed, so he make the 14 remaining Angels enter into a war against Milcor with his creatures and defeat him and deported to an undisclosed location
Saron (the eye in the tower) was one of the angels of the second degree "the maiar".. He was an assistant to Milcor and commander of all his armies
Of course Saron was an angel and he had a great power and was afraid to get what happened with his master Milcor so he want to make a ring containing all the power he have and make 16 other rings with great strength derived from the strength of the first ring... with his original ring, he can control anyone wearing a ring from the 16 rings
but how he will make those rings ?
Saron disguise in his body as a king of the goblins and went to them and asked them the most blacksmiths to help him make the rings In return, they will help them to protect their homeland and teach them how to make magic rings.
the goblins made the 16 rings, But in a malicious way the goblins used Sarons way and made a 3 rings whitch are very very strong rings and almost equal to the strength of the original ring ( Sarons ring )
the goblins secretly took the 3 rings and gave them to the three strongest of them who are in this picture
And this explains to you how Arwen helped Gandalf .. because she was wearing a ring of this 3
Saron believed that the 16 ring he held had the power to control the world because he would control anyone wearing a 16-ring with his original ring and making them his slaves, but he didn't know that there were other 3 rings have been made .. and when he realized that he couldn't fully control the other 16 rings because of this 3 strength rings.. so he kidnapped the Blacksmith that he made him this rings and tortured him to guide Saron to the three powerful rings, but he refused, so Saron killed him and decided to leave the goblins with the 3 rings because he could not do anything with them because of the strength of these 3 rings
Saron went to the dwarfs and gave them a 7 rings of the 16 in the hope that he would control them But the dwarves were very rude and very stubborn .. with the help of these rings they began to make wealth and gold and become more rich and more wealth
This huge wealth attracted the evil creatures until the dragons came and accused the seven kings with them seven rings.
Saron's despair of the dwarfs and decided to look for an alternative plan
Humans were the only beings whose short ages and they had the ability to do anything to make their lives longer
Saron went to them and gave them the nine remaining rings to nine kings of Humans . and the nine kings were still serving saron by those rings , until they became nine kings of ghosts
All this story and we did not start the film yet !
The rest of the 14 angels '' the maiar '' decided that they did not keep silent about the actions of Saron and entered into a war against him and defeated him as they defeated his master Milcor
But Saurn's plan was successful and his strength was kept in his ring .
the ring still contains all this power. Whoever any one wears this ring he will controlled by the magic powers and forces him to go to kill Saron. But once he goes there, the ring will return to his lord saron because the ring has no benefit except if it is in the hands of Saron.
And here we begins the story of the films
I wish I could summarize what I read and I hope you will read the original novel ... its very much fun full of imagination than the movies
