Narya

[obloquy]

Cirdan:

'Take this ring, Master,' he said, 'for your labours will be heavy; but it will support you in the weariness that you have taken upon yourself. For this is the Ring of Fire, and with it you may rekindle hearts in a world that grows chill. But as for me, my heart is wtih the Sea, and I will dwell by the grey shores until the last ship sails. I will await you.'

The interesting part is '...with it you may rekindle hearts in a world that grows chill.'
Did Narya help Gandalf with Theoden? Could it have had any influence over the Ents? Maybe I'm just desperate for a new Tolkien topic, but this jumped out at me when I was looking through the appendices. Thoughts?
