-your POV-

"The Ring cannot be destroyed, Gimli, son of Gloin by any craft that we here possess. The Ring was made in the fires of Mount Doom. Only there can it be unmade. It must be taken deep into Mordor and cast back into the fiery chasm from whence it came." Lord Elrond says as Gimli has a surprised look on his face.

I chuckle and say.
"This is a quest of grave matter. If any of you would fail, the whole world would see its downfall." As I say this, lord Elrond gets a troubled look on his face and turns his gaze to me.

"Don't worry, I will join whoever joins this quest, Lord Elrond. You have my word." He nods gratefully and then continues to talk.

Before he talks, I pick up the words of the ring.
"Ash Nazg..." I whice at the words and take my head in my hands. Lord Elrond gives me a worried look before turning back to the council.

"One of you must do this." His words are met with dead silence.

Then the Boromir speaks up.
"One does not simply walk into Mordor. Its black gates are guarded by more than just orcs. There is evil there that does not sleep. And the great Eye is ever watchful. It is a barren wasteland. Riddled with fire and ash and dust. The very air you breathe is a poisonous fume. Not with ten thousand men could you do this. It is folly!" I sigh and say in a dark voice.

"If none of us destroy the ring, your kingdoms will burn. The line of men and other razes will fall and orcs and other foul creatures will rule on the earth. I will not promise that we will survive but does it hurt to try? This world's fate is in your hands. Do you choose to throw it away or save it?" I raise an eyebrow. When Boromir sits there speechless, I smirk.

I then hear Legolas speak up.
"Have you heard nothing Lord Elrond has said? The Ring must be destroyed!" Oh Legolas, always the one who's trying to encouraging others. I then see the dwarf Gimli leaps to his feet. Oh no, this bends to end badly.

"And I suppose you think you're the one to do it?!" He yells. Boromir is also on his feet.
"And if we fail, what then?! What happens when Sauron takes back what is his?!" I groan as the quarrel breaks out between the council members.

I notice that Frodo watches the Ring, the angry figures of the council reflected on its surface. Suddenly, flames flare up, engulfing the surface of the Ring.

I growl. Suddenly his voice rings out but is drowned out by the angry voices of the council. I had enough.

"Enough!" The members run quietly. I sigh and gesture to Frodo.
"Say what's on your mind, young one," I say. Fordo is a little surprised by my voice but still calls out once again.

"I will take the Ring to Mordor. Though... I do not know the way. " fordo says. As he ends his words, Gandalf comes towards him and place s a hand on his shoulder. He has a pained smile on his face.

"I will help you bear this burden, Frodo Baggins, so long as it is yours to bear," he says. Then the man by the name Aragorn rises and says.

"If by my life or death, I can protect you, I will. " he kneels before Frodo.
"You have my sword. " as Aragorn is done, Legolas speak up.

"And you have my bow," he says and stands beside Frodo.

Gimili then calls out.
"And my ax!" I giggle a little bit stop when I hear Boromir's voice.
"You carry the fates of us all little one. If this is indeed the will of the council, then Gondor will see it done. "

I smile and turn to Frodo.
"I will do in all that lies in my power to protect you, young one. You have my powers." Frodo smiled at my words as I walk up beside him.

Suddenly Sam canes running down to us and says.
"Heh! Mr. Frodo is not goin' anywhere without me!" He chirps.

Lord Elrond chuckle and says.
"No indeed, it is hardly possible to separate you even when he is summoned to a secret council and you are not." I chuckle and then u hear two familiar voices come.

It's pippin and merry.
"Wait! We are coming too!"
"You'd have to send us home tied up in a sack to stop us!" Merry says happily.

"Anyway, you need people of intelligence on this sort of mission, quest... thing." Pippin continues.

"Well that rules you out Pip" Merry says, rolling his eyes at his brother.

And with this, the journey to end the ring start.
What will this jorny lead us on? Well, no one knows. It's up to us to find out.
