>Men? Men are weak. It is because of men the ring survives. I was there. I was there 3000 years ago ... when Isildur took the Ring. I was there the day the strength of men failed. I led Isildur into the heart of Mount Doom, where the Ring was forged, the one place It could be destroyed! It should have ended that day, but evil was allowed to endure. Isildur kept the ring. The line of kings is broken. There's no strength left in the world of Men. They're scattered, divided, leaderless.
Men? Men are weak. It is because of men the ring survives. I was there. I was there 3000 years ago...
>too pussy to even attempt to take the ring
>I-IT WAS THE STRENGTH OF MEN THAT FAILED ELVES DINDU NUFFIN
Literally everything wrong is the fault of the elves.
This basically. Men have been mopping up their mess since the first age
>NOOOOOOO ISILDUR YOU CAN'T JUST TAKE THE RING FOR YOUR OWN GAIN NOOOOOO ISILDUR THROW IT INTO THE FIRE WHAT DO YOU MEAN NO YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED ISILDUR NOOOOO
He's just bitter about his Chad brother who became the first ruler of the greatest civilisation in the history of Middle-Earth, even surpassing the Noldor at their height
>Yeah bro, I think I will keep that ring for a moment and enjoy victory. Just stop worrying my pointy eared friend
>NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO FUCKING THROW THE RING IN THE LAVA YOU CAN'T HAVE BLACKJACK AND HOOKERS PARTIES WITH THE ONE RING REEEEEEEEEEEE
But seriously, would Elrond even be able to destroy the ring ? If even Frodo failed ?
>Why yes I am going to take the ring for myself and for the good of my people. What gave it away?
Friendly reminder Elrond is only alive because chad Noldor felt sorry for him and his faggot brother after killing their whole family.
>innocent Teleri
>YEAH KILL 'EM AND STEAL THEIR BOATS
Feaniggers, not even once
sauron is a literal elf
NOO ISILDUR DONT TAKE THE RING THAT GIVES YOU AMAZING POWERS IT WILL DESTROY US
>amazing powers
>still jobs to a handful of pursuers
shut up thalmor
>the one ring
>amazing powers
t. sauron
I mean yeah, it all started with Feanor and honestly the humans have fucked up plenty but theyre also just humans, elves are these half divine creatures with magic and wisdom pouring out their fingertips and they never fucking die and STILL they manage to REEEE so hard that the world shakes several ages later
Acktually, it was during the third kinslaying.
It just turns you invisibile dawg.
imagine how cucked he must have felt, seeing that power taken by a fucking round-ear with an absurdly short lifespan.
It's like he was dabbed on by an insect.
And he was still bitter hundreds of years later.
Hysterical.
Friendly reminder that elves are the niggers of fantasy
So didnt Elron walk the fuck up to Isuldur, kick him on his ass, snatch the ring from his hand and quickly toss it into the fire in one swift elvishly agile move? He let countless more die. The fault is all on his in action
Why was this faggot so high and mighty? The ring corrupts EVERYONE
Why*
Unlikely since Isildur was instantly under its influence. Elrond probably wouldn’t have been able to resist either.
elves are ONLY for rape and genocide
Because Idildur was a numenorean megachad, all the chad elves were dead by this point.
Because he couldn't do it either, the ring only got destroyed by chance or divine intervention. plus he wouldm't be able to feel superior if he did.
>one man shows weakness to the most powerful cursed artifact in the universe that only gods and half gods can resist
>woah, why are all men such pussies?
pretty racist desu
>INCELDUR! CAST THE VOWS!!
>say men are weak
>was a spineless faggot fairy that didn't have the balls to even try to wrestle the ring of Isildur and throw it to the lava
You can't rape Elves in LotR, sorry bro they just ascend from the physical plane in you try. It's canon.
elrond's wife got raped so hard he sent her back where she came from, like some used goods, which she was lmao
Aragorn resisted it. Why couldn't Elrond?
Isildur was a 7 & a half feet tall murder machine, Imagine the mountain from GoT but smart and skilled
Not entirely true, Celebrian got captured by orcs and they went full Kuroinu on her elven holes.
obligatory
At least in the movie he wasn't
Aragorn never directly possessed it.
because aragorn is a numenorian chad, and elrond is an elf bitchboy
Has anyone seen the matrix special feature where he makes fun of his stunt doubles hairline and then is like "oh wait." That shit was funny.
Why didn't they bring a pair of tongs for this occasion
Aragorn was never in a situation where he would have to destroy it. Frodo resisted it too, up until that point.
aragorn never even held it, at least in the movie, and they were still far from mordor
the tongs would fall under its influence
Yeah Aragorn is like 6'5 in the books, he mogs the fuck out of everyone besides Eomer iirc
OK, let's say Isildir was such a chad that Elrond had no hope in defeating him in combat.
Why not just tackle him, and throw themselves into the lava? There is no way for Isildur to do anything about it in such a narrow bridge, and Elrond has nothing to lose, since he knows for sure he won't die for real.
Elendil is 7ft 11 inches, it would have looked ridiculous onscreen beside all the manlet elves
why did't they bring a pair of thongs, then
There were no witnesses. Just push him into the volcano. Plausible deniability.
It makes sense to me that he would be just tempted enough by it even at that distance to not risk it. That might be why he was so insistent that Isildur do it, because he was already feeling tempted by it.
Why couldnt he? "He just cant" isnt an answer. He didnt even attempt to stop him from not destroying one of the most dangerous things ever. There is literally zero reason he didnt attempt to stop him in a confrontation.
exceptz you lorelet, Elrond is Aragorn's Great (* 25) Uncle, he is the brother of the first King of Numenor l, and since all the stuff that made Numenoreans Chads was basically the Vala making them more like Elves you'd think Elrond has more of it in his blood than Isildur or Aragorn, or any living man.
Isn't he that way because Numenorians are basically half-elves? Why would he be able to beat up a full elf?
Tackling Isildiur would have solved that problem too.
Numenoreas were literally blessed by God himself into a race of uber chads.
Elves needed there own special rings or else Sauron could taint them
>even surpassing the Noldor at their height
Call me back when they make shiny gems
I'd like to think that Mandos told Feanor "hey bro, remember when you asked Galadriel for one strand of hair, and she told you to fuck off? Well, I heard she gave THREE to some dumbass Dwarf, I shit you not".
>the ring only got destroyed by chance or divine intervention
I like the theory that the ring killed itself.
Gollum swore he wouldn't attack Frodo on the ring, and Frodo specifically said the ring would punish him if he broke that oath. Then Gollum broke it, and the ring killed him.
Based Gimli.
Noldor were the greatest individuals, Ar-Pharazon had the greatest army.
Well, they raised an army so huge and powerful, Illuvatar had to go "fuck it, I HAVE to do something", and Illuvatar never does that. I'd take that as a bigger accomplishment.
>hey bro, remember when you asked Galadriel for one strand of hair
Didn't happen.
>they raised an army so huge and powerful, Illuvatar had to go "fuck it, I HAVE to do something"
No, they just did what he told them not to do so he squashed them. Getting squashed due to insubordination is not a bigger accomplishment than catching divine light in gems of unearthly beauty.
Could they really fuck all the elves and valar up? I doubt it.
I don't understand why they didn't add that scene in the book where Gimli and Eomer were having an argument about which elf wench was hotter.
Well, the very sight of the Numenoreans sent Sauron's orc army to flee in pure terror, and this is Sauron back when he had the One. The Great Armamanet was an even bigger army, so arguably they would have given the elves a run for their money.
It is also telling that it was the Valar who asked Eru to intervene.
Because Elrond is lawful good and wouldn’t kill a friend and leader of men.
Not even to save the world?
Do you think /pol will ever realize that the elves were the whites of middle earth and the humans were the niggers?
>
Because elves are pussies
>since he knows for sure he won't die for real.
He will be in shitload of pain however
But he would later shit talk him behind his back. Ebin friend, but typical for a fucking knife ears
Other way around. Around elves, watch yourselves.
Because no one can destroy the ring. They simply don't have the will to do it. It's fucking magic, mate. Hence why it took chance/divine intervention to finally get rid of it for good
he's a big guy
so what you're saying is that Elrond is a mutt? Unsurprizing
Isn't Feanor in limbo or whatever? After his autistic rage made him combust into flames?
>elves
>whites
>blames everyone but themselves for their misfortune
sounds like niggers to me
>when Elrond talks about Isildur he's actually cursing his own weakness
deep
That actually would be kino, but I don't think that was the intent
Isildur was planning on bringing the ring to Rivendell and consult the seven on what to do. He and his party were ambushed by orcs at Gladden Fields however and the rest is history.
A queermo like Mandos couldn't keep Feanor locked up.
>too scared to try to take the world ending superweapon away from a mere mortal
nice elves tolkien
of course it was you dumb pleb
Y'all forgetting Elves literally don't have free will.
It's not Elrond's fault.
I only come here to sneed i dont know aboun whatever this board is about I dont care all I do is feed and seed all day.
Do people unironically like this trash? I thought with GOT around LOTR would've died out a long time ago, since GOT is just a improved version of LOTR without the "dude elves lmao" and the 300 page backstory behind that fucking twig lying on the ground. Are there actually people who unironically prefer LOTR over GOT? Cause to me thats like saying you prefer your meat raw over well done, just unthinkable and alien
>300 page backstory behind that fucking twig lying on the ground
