[choir singing softly]
[female speaking elvish]
Female translating: The world is changed.
I feel it in the water.
I feel it in the earth.
I smell it in the air.
Much that once was, is lost.
For none now live who remember it.
It began with the forging of the great rings.
Three were given to the elves--
Immortal, wisest, and fairest of all beings.
Seven to the dwarf-lords--
Great miners and craftsmen of the mountain halls.
And nine.
Nine rings were gifted to the race of men,
Who, above all else, desire power.
For within these rings
Was bound the strength and will to govern each race.
But they were, all of them, deceived,
For another ring was made.
In the land of mordor in the fires of mount doom,
The dark lord sauron forged, in secret, a master ring
To control all others.
And into this ring he poured his cruelty, his malice,
And his will to dominate all life.
One ring to rule them all.
One by one, the free lands of middle-earth
Fell to the power of the ring.
But there were some who resisted.
A last alliance of men and elves
Marched against the armies of mordor.
And on the slopes of mount doom,
They fought for the freedom of middle-earth.
