There is no poetry in Black Speech and yet Sauron just dropped his sickest verse on his ring? 🤔

Sauron is an artist. An artist signs his masterpiece.

my belief is that it was not engraved mechanically, but rather manifested as Sauron put his power into the ring along with the spell

Pretty straightforward. The inscription is a spell, the invocation of an astoundingly comprehensive binding spell. Basically he’s asserting magical authority over the entire domain: Rings of Power technology. All participants are to be subject to this talisman. Inscribing the spell makes it as permanent an invocation as the item itself proves to be

The inscription IS the spell, writing it brings it into existence and makes it true. The only way to undo it is to destroy the "scroll" it's written on, which in this case means melting the ring.

Same reason you engrave an ID on stuff today. If you all threw your rings in a bowl at a party, you can prove which one is yours. 😅

The One Ring was a horcrux. Of corse JRRT didn't call it that, and it came first.

Thank you for these great videos. Was the change in audio quality just before 3:44 a stylistic choice? If not, just wanted to let you know about it.

Thanks for your support. It was not a stylistic choice.

The 3rd reason is repeated. Just letting you know

Had Elrond managed to sway Isildur to destroy the ring, we would have seen a very different third age. But eventually, a new power would have risen, disturbed by the Dwarves of Moria! What Elves would remain in Middle Earth? What part would the Black Numenoreans in the rise of a new power rising?

cause that font looks sick.

The ring added a hidden +100 to drip to anyone that had it. Frodo only got half of the buff when he had it around his neck, the exception being some of the few times Frodo put the ring on his finger.

According to Bored of the Ring it was in case it got lost

The script looks very similar to Arabic or Persian, it’s beautifully executed yet when spoken in the Black Speech it’s coarse, grating and harsh-as it was intended to be. I do wonder if any of the words mean anything in Arabic, Persian or other languages because I have noticed that certain words and names correspond to real names or words. Tolkien created all this without the need to resort to computers and such, which is refreshing.

The language is the Black Speech, but the script is Elvish.

Because Saruman knows all about the rule of cool. *Edit, Sauron.*

Eventually he didnt need his ring.

Why did he do it. Cause he can that's why (mic drop)

I agree with Tolken black speech is horrible and evil 😆
