[Notes (and a disclaimer):
It was a bit hard doing this crossover, having to think of ways of retelling a well-loved story.
Firstly, I do not own Gensomaden Saiyuki. That, is none other than the result of the wonderful job executed by Minekura.
Secondly, the following is less of a crossover with Tolkien's fabulous work, than, with a modyfing and adaptation of such a story into another. Basically, it's actually Gensomaden Saiyuki, set in a modernized version of Tolkien's epic, with a restructured storyline, that centres more on Saiyuki than Tolkien. So, it's really a Saiyuki story. Besides, Tolkien's story has not yet reached the age of the original Chinese fable, Journey to the West, and so, shouldn't be modernized just yet.
Thirdly, the youkai of GS, since they all had pointy ears, will be divided into two distinct youkai races: elves(being the more beautiful youkai, like Yaone, and orcs, being the usual, ugly, youhkai). As for hobbits, well…I'll work something out. Note that, here, Sutras have been replaced by rings (well, some are). Also, if ANY of the characters are OOC, let me know !
Anyway, enough of that !]

The Lord of the Sutras
~
Three Rings, for the Elven-Kings under the Sky,
Seven Locks for the Orc-Warlocks, in their towers of stone,
Nine Sutras for Mortal men, Doomed to Die,
One Ring for the damned lord, on his damning throne,
To the West, where the shadows lie,
One Ring to rule them all, One Ring
One Ring to bring them all, and in the darkness, bind them,
To the West, where the Shadows lie
