There is something wrong with me.

I read your title and I can in here thinking that this will be about Tolkien's Ring, ie LotR.


I was just gonna lecture you on the friendship between the elves of Hollin and the Dwarves of Moria and how Sauron managed to disguise himself and.....well....you get it..

Yeah, that's why I looked in this thread too, to see which ring he was actually asking about, lol
