Prologue by Galadriel:

Galadriel[Elvish, English]
I amar prestar aen...
The world is changed.

ihan mathon ne nen...
I feel it in the water.

han mathon ne chae...
I feel it in the Earth.

a han noston ned gwilith.

I smell it in the air.

Much that once was is lost. For none now live who remember it.

THE LORD OF THE RINGS

A fire is seen, in which melted metal is being taken out by prongs. It is poured into a mold for casting.

Galadriel:(V.O)
It began with the forging of the great rings. Three were given to the Elves, immortal, wisest and fairest of all beings.

The three Elf rings are seen on their owners hands; Narya, Nenya and Vilya. They look at them, admiring their beauty.

Galadriel:(V.O)
Seven to the Dwarf lords, great miners and craftsmen of the mountain halls.

Seven rings are spread in a circle on a table. Seven Dwarf Lords pick them up and raise them above their heads. Nine Kings of men lower their rings, holding them in front of themselves.

Galadriel:(V.O)
And nine, nine rings were gifted to the race of Men, who above all else, desire power. For within these rings was bound the strength and will to govern each race. But they were all of them deceived, for another ring was made.

Mount Doom spouts off lava and fire, the land surrounding it is dark and gloomy. Sauron stands inside Mount Doom creating his ring.

Galadriel:(V.O)
In the land of Mordor, in the fires of Mount Doom, the Dark Lord Sauron forged in secret a master ring, to control all others. And into this Ring, he poured his cruelty, his malice and his will to dominate all life.

Sauron shows the Ring on his forefinger, the Elvish inscription carving itself into the Ring.

Galadriel:(V.O)
"One Ring to rule them all."

(Wild men attack villages, houses errupt in flames, the townspeople run away screaming in fear.)

Galadriel:(V.O)
One by one, the free lands of Middle-Earth fell to the power of the Ring. But there were some who resisted. (An army of Elves and Men are seen on the field of Dagorlad) A last alliance of Men and Elves marched against the armies of Mordor, and on the slopes of Mount Doom they fought for the freedom of Middle-Earth.

Orcs are seen grunting and ready for battle. Elves and Men let loose arrows into the hordes of Orcs. Armies of Orcs attack the Elves and Men, who fight back bravely. Lord Elrond is seen shouting out commands at the army.

Galadriel:(V.O)
Victory was near. But the power of the Ring could not be undone.

Sauron steps onto the battlefield, carrying a mace and the Ring of Power on his finger. Everyone turns and looks at him with fear in their eyes. He swings his mace, sending a group of Elves flying through the air. Elendil raises his sword to strike, but Sauron flings him against a rock, crushing him to death. Shocked, Isidur runs over to his fallen father. Suddenly, he is aware of someone behind him, he roles over, seeing Sauron towering above him.

Galadriel:(V.O)
It was in this moment when all hope had faded, that Isildur, son of the King, took up his father's sword.

Isildur grabs the hilt of Narsil, but Sauron stomps on it, shattering the blade. Sauron reaches down towards Isildur with the hand carrying the Ring. With a desperate attempt, Isildur let's out a cry and strikes Sauron's hand with the shards of Narsil, slicing off the finger bearing the One Ring. Sauron let's out a cry. He implodes, sending a shockwave throughout the battlefield, knocking the warriors off their feet. His armour falls to the ground, his body gone. Smoke emerges from within the armour.
