Joseph Conrad

by Joseph Conrad

Many men have ventured into Moria, but few have returned sane. I was to meet the bearer of the one ring there, but circumstance dictated that it could not be a happy occasion. As the Eye burned into my mind I heard a voice cry out, The Precious, My Precious...

I still shudder to recall that voice, and the shape of what once had been a man, but had been twisted so savagely by the fire that burns in the darkest, impenatrable Heart of Moria.
