***** Rings for the Elven-kings under the sky,
***** for the Dwarf-lords in their halls of stone,
***** for Mortal Men doomed to die,
***** for the Dark Lord on his dark throne
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.
One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them,
One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie."
--- J.R.R. Tolkien's epigraph to The Lord of The Rings.
Part one of this cache will take you to the site of one enormous ring, and you won't even have to journey under the Misty Mountains to get to it. It is much larger than one would expect but remember that the ring can change size to fit its bearer. Go ahead hop onto it. Take a little walk around. You don't need to worry about ringwraiths but muggles do abound here so be discreet. Somewhere on the ring you will find the coordinates for the next stage of this two part cache. Our good friend the Muse sometimes doesn't know his own strength so we felt it was necessary to write the coords on stone to preserve them for future cachers;) We've left it a little puzzling since he likes puzzles but the hint will help anyone who isn't familiar with the story. When you locate part two...well if you've read the books you can feel free to try out your elvish but if there are muggles around please do it quietly, who knows what they would make of that!
