Alternate "Hiding the Ring" strategies - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Yep. I was thinking about those "nameless things
gnawing." As for the Ring only being destroyed
where it was made, it's curious that a simaril could be
destroyed in apparently just about any volcano but not
the Ring.

Was there any stated prohinition from the valar not
keeping the ring but chucking it into a part of the
void seperate from Morgoth? Or putting it on an island
off Aman or in the middle of the encircling sea, not Aman per se.
An indirect way to help out Middle-earth, and perhaps taunting Sauron
and distracting him from Middle-earth conquests?
