"In Eregion long ago many Elven-rings were made, magic rings as you
call them, and they were, of course, of various kinds: some more
potent and some less. The lesser rings were only essays in the craft
before it was full-grown, and to the Elven-smiths they were but
trifles – yet still to my mind dangerous for mortals. But the Great
Rings, the Rings of Power, they were perilous."
"A mortal, Frodo, who keeps one of the Great Rings, does not die,
but he does not grow or obtain more life, he merely continues, until
at last every minute is a weariness. And if he often uses the Ring
to make himself invisible, he fades: he becomes in the end invisible
permanently, and walks in the twilight under the eye of the Dark
Power that rules the Rings."
"Yes, sooner or later – later, if he is strong or well-meaning to
begin with, but neither strength nor good purpose will last – sooner
or later the Dark Power will devour him."
A coywolf is an informal term for a canid hybrid descended from coyotes,
eastern wolves, gray wolves and dogs.
