Oh heah this needs more writing

“so great was the Ring's power of lust” (Tolkien Letter 131) and Alan Lee has Sauron forging the One ring wearing nothing more than a groin cloth. How horny was Sauron forging that thing? Are we sure it was blood he poured into it?

Men called him Thû, and as a god in after days beneath his rod bewildered bowed to him, and made his ghastly temples in the shade. Not yet by Men enthralled adored, now was he Morgoth’s mightiest lord, Master of Wolves, whose shivering howl for ever echoed in the hills, and foul enchantments and dark sigaldry did weave and wield. In glamoury that necromancer held his hosts of phantoms and of wandering ghosts, of misbegotten or spell-wronged monsters that about him thronged, working his bidding dark and vile: the werewolves of the Wizard’s Isle.
