Actual You: If you lived in a universe where it actually existed, the LotR books/movies wouldn't exist, and you'd probably have absolutely no idea what it was until after you'd used it dozens of times and pretty much damned yourself. Not to mention that it's easy to SAY you've got the willpower to resist what is essentially magical ultra-heroin, but probably a lot harder to DO when it's actually in your possession and whispering directly into your brain how awesome it would be to just put the ring on and use it to be awesome. Especially since, in-universe, normal humans were pretty much the worst possible people to have any ring, since they were the ones least capable of not giving in to temptation. No. The assumption was clearly that we know what the ring is. Nobody said anything about traveling to another world. And yes, its pretty easy for me to avoid things that will destroy me. --- You think you've Got problems? https://imgur.com/Khu5iBF <cite>Kimbos_Egg posted [p:949467493] in You: Uses ...
