Message from Gandalf

“The rule of no realm is mine, but all worthy things that are in peril as the world now stands, those are my care.

"And for my part, I shall not wholly fail in my task if anything passes through this night
that can still grow fair or bear fruit and flower again in days to come.
For I too am a steward. Did you not know?”

"all worthy things that are in peril as the world now stands" SHOULD be our care.

Of course we all have limited time, energy and power. And there are a lot of threats out there now.

But that doesn't exempt us from doing what we can, where and when we can, with whatever abilities/power/influence we have.

There are a 8 billion Rings of Power, probably more.
You must find and wear the one that fits your destiny." - BoRaGandalf
