Twenty Rings

Summary:

Sauron forged twenty rings. How much would have costed him to forge one more?

Notes:

Tolkientober 2026, prompt #3: FORGE.

I’m not a writer, English is not my first language and the fic is also unbetaed, so.... Sorry! :D

(See the end of the work for more notes.)

Work Text:

“Three rings for the Elves, seven for the Dwarves, nine for the Men, and one for himself: twenty rings he forged, and not one of them was for me!”

“Tsk, and they say women are obsessed with jewellery!”

“Thanks, Goldberry, I knew you would understand why I left him!”

“Yes, sweetheart, I told you before: Sauron’s not a good boyfriend.”

Gwinthir sighed: “He was hot back then, when he was corporeal. Now he’s just an eye! I mean, I don't want to sound shallow, but a woman has needs!”

“I feel you girl, you're totally right! Another cup of tea?”

Notes:

So, I hope it was clear: Gwinthir is an OC, former Sauron’s girlfriend. I suppose she can be a Maia, too, and she’s friend with Goldberry because I needed a character that wasn’t an elf but could be as old as Sauron and Gwinthir.

Thanks for reading! ^^
