Temptation
I can hear the Ring's seductive whisper on the edge of my thoughts. I know its evil lure; have seen it at work in the company. To banish its malice, I think of my home; the trees green and growing. Yet blight and shadow mar the woodland now – my father fights valiantly; using his power and strength to defeat this darkness, but 'tis not enough.
Why is it that he is the only Elven ruler without a ring of power? It would be so easy: together we could sweep all evil from this world. I have only to take it.
