Hello! Welcome to the first Nerd of the Rings video in English! We look at sections of The Lord of the Rings and Tolkien's letters to answer the question: what would happen if Sauron recovered the One Ring? We'll go from Frodo's failure at Mount Doom to determine Sauron's strategy, how the elves would try to fight him, and who would be left standing! Hit that subscribe button now!
