Dim (Witch King)

"Died because of his own dim sightedness"

Power was the one weakness of the human race. They had their strength –stubbornness– but when power beyond what they already had was offered it would take a strong man indeed to refuse it. He wasn't strong. The ring that sat innocently on his finger was a beautiful sight, enough to make him forget who had gifted it to him. The forgetfulness was his undoing as the light around him began to fade and he was trapped for all eternity in a half-life, bound to the orders of his master, all because he died because of his own dim sightedness.

Exactly 100 words. Thanks to DarylDixon'sgirl1985 for this one. More prompts are very welcome (please use the form Theme, Character, "Prompt" e.g. Dim, Witch King, "Died because of his own dim sightedness"). No OCs please, but any other character, however obscure, is welcome.

Oh yeah, if anyone's interested I'm now accepting fic requests. More details are on my profile.
