*Dies laughing* Oh, my favourite two stories of the Silmarillion, butchered to a sentence. Genius. Pure Genius...
Yah...anyway, I made this up explain LOTR to an annoying townie girl...its more FOTR than anything else though...
Lord of the Rings (Abridged)
A small fella takes a Ring with evil powers to be destroyed in a volcano, along with a multi-racial team of Do-Gooders. They traverse a deadly mine and an enchanted wood, purseued by the bad guys and the Ring's previous (and somewhat derranged) incumbent. The team leader snuffs it, (making a comeback later), before the group spilts over internal differences. Post schism, the titchy hero and best pal make for the lava, via a giant spider's lair. Meanwhile, the others, one a hushed up King, rustle up some big old battles to distract the big kahuna. The Ring is dispatched flamewards. All is well. Sort of.
