***Prologue***

Almost Three thousand years ago the Enigma, desiring power over all of the races of Middle-Earth created rings of

power. Nine were given to the Kalderans, raiders who traveled through the universe looking for worlds to invade.

Seven were given to the leaders of the great Nietzschean prides who above all things desired power. At this time

also the Humans forged three great rings, untouched by the Enigma. Eager to wield the great powers, the

Kalderans and the Nietzscheans blindly accepted the Enigma's gift. But they were all of them deceived. For the

Enigma had created another Ring. A Master Ring. And into this Ring he poured in cruelty, his malice, and his will

to dominate all life. One by one the great races of the universe succumbed to the power of the Ring, but all hope was

not yet lost. A last alliance of Humans and Nietzscheans marched against the armies of Mordor. There before

Mount Doom they fought for the freedom of the free peoples of the universe. But the power of the Ring could not

be undone. Then in their darkest hour Guderian took up his father's sword and Enigma was defeated. It should

have ended there, but the Ring of Power has a will of its own. Guderian kept the Ring but it betrayed him to his

death. Lost in a far corner of the universe the Ring was all but forgotten for almost two thousand years. Then when

the chance came, it found a new bearer. The Ring came to the Nightsider Gerentex who took it and hid it away in

his home in the Misty Mountains. The Ring brought to him unnatural long life. For five hundred years the Ring

poisoned his mind and in the depths of the Misty Mountains it waited. Then something happened that the Ring did

not intend. It was picked up by the most unlikely creature imaginable; Trance Gemini of the Eureka Maru. Trance

used the Ring to aid her companions on their quest and took it back to her home in the Shire where it lay quiet for

sixty years. Until now.
