Aethelwine has just left Hobbiton.
Ok...

*Aethelwine enters a theater one faithful day in 2005 ( no correct dates for now ) and sits down. The big day has arrived, she's going to see the musical of The Lord of the Rings for the first time. She's excited, not knowing what to expect.

Then the lights go out, and... on a screen at the back of the stage a word appears: PROLOGUE. 'A yes', Athelwine thinks, 'for those under us who still don't know what LotR is about...'
Suddenly, a strange noise can be heard, to the side of the stage. A strange looking man appears, wearing on his head a big... eye? With a shock Aethelwine realizes that this has to be Sauron, our dear dark lord. Looking utterly ridicules. And than he opens his mouth... and... sings...

" I'm gonna make my own ring
's gonna make me a king
's gonna make me a lo-o-o-ord

They will bend down to my voice
gonna drop down their toys
gonna drop down their rings
The rings of their kings!"

Then, a choir is revealed, consisting of 3 elves, 7 dwarves and 9 man, singing:

"He's gonna make his own ring
's gonna make him a king
's gonna make him a lo-o-o-ord

But we will march on
let the odds be all wrong
we won’t let go of our rings
The rings of our kings!”

Terrified, Aethelwine leaves the theater, never to return…*

I’ll never get the image of a singing Sauron out of my head…
