The Lord of the Rings (LOTR) part 3


The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King is all about war and friendship and it is also the best part of the whole trilogy, the ring was destroyed.\

When all of them united with Merry and Pippin, they went to "pay a visit" to Sarumuan, who was trapped on top of Isengard, he was stabbed by wormtongue who was also trapped with him. Legolas shot and arrow right through wormtoungue's head after he stabbed Saruman with a dagger becuase of Saurman's betrayal. Saruman fell from Isengard and a big sharp wooden... thingy... stabbed Saruman in the back. A round glass ball fell from Saruman, into the water,(refer to photo)being the nice and helpful Pippin, he picked it up and looked at it, something fiery and red caught Pippin's eyes, it was the eye of Sauron. Pippin was mesmerized by the eye, Gandalf quickly picked it up and pretended nothing had happened.  And happily, Saruman died. Gandalf the white,.Theoden King, Aragorn and the others along with Merry and Pippin went to  defend Gondor's capital, Minas Tirith. Araogorn realized their army was very small compared to Sauron's. Aragorn said he will travel to the Paths of Dead, legend has it that whoever goes in, never comes out. Eowyn warned and begged Aragorn not to go in, but he had no choice, and once again Eowyn (the friend-zoned one) got ignored. But Legolas and Gimli demanded that they will follow him together. Legolas said: Have you never heard of dwarves's stubbornness? So three of them along with Aragorn to the Paths of Dead. 


Not scary? The path is not scary.... YET. The walked to the entrance of the paths of dead, it was silent, only their footsteps were heard. They had to leaved their two horses because the horses were scared, so they ran off. 








<------- The entrance 
Aragorn went in for the sake of Gondor, (Legolas isn't afraid of death, Gimli, was scared of the dead. After Legolas and Aragorn went in, Gimli was too scared at first then he forced himself to go in. (Gimli was really cute and funny in this scene in the movie) The three companions walk together with Aragorn carrying a torchwood for light to guide their way. At one point they were stepping on skulls, Gimli freaked out and tell himself to stay strong, this is also where some ghostly skeleton hand reaching out for them. 


After Saruman's dead, the fellowship ride to Edoras, to celebrate Saruman's death and their victory at Helm's Deep in Rohan. Merry and Pippin were dancing on tables at The Green Dragon Inn, Gimli challenged pure Legolas to a drinking game. You make the decision: Who won? All was well until Aragorn talked with Gandalf about Frodo destroying the ring. They were all worried about Frodo and his... path.

Somewhere near the mountain of Shadows, Gollum was talking to Smeagol when Frodo and Sam were sleeping. But luckily, Sam was secretly awake and caught Gollum saying "she will kill them".... " then we will get out precious" Again Sam warned Frodo their "guide" was dangerous and untrustable, and again Frodo ignored Sam. Sam hated Gollum, Gollum hated Sam too but acted infront of Frodo that he was nice, after Sam said something evil and mean to Gollum, Gollum will say "nasssty little hobbitsessss..." and Frodo asked Sam to be nice to Gollum. 

It was night time when Aragorn walked out and found Legolas staring at the sky. They talked about Frodo and the ring (fav scene~) Pippin, tempted by the ball, sneaked up to Gandalf who was hugging the ball around his arms, Pippin took it and looked at it again, the eye appeared once more and Pippin couldn't look away. He screamed, Legolas and Aragorn rushed inside. the others waked. Gandalf quickly pushed Pippin away and covered the ball with a cloth. Pippin was panting, Gandalf asked him what did he see. Pippin recalled and had a headache, he said he was really sorry. He also said that he saw a white tree, dying, and the whole place was burning. This is what happen: Sauron saw Pippin and thought that he was the ring-bearer. Now that Sauron knows where and who is the ring-bearer, Gandalf and Pippin must leave Rohan immediately. 


The horrifying Minas Morgul 
Frodo, Gollum and Sam were making their way to Minas Morgul, the evil city, they were close to Mount Doom. Gollum said they need to climb up a range of steep stairs on the rock. The power of Minas Morgul sensed the presence of the ring. Frodo had the urge to get closer but Sam and Gollum pulled him away. Gollum said there was no way to get in there so they took the long way up. (the trap) 



They reached the stairs of Cirith Ungol, they have to climb up to go to Mount Doom ( not -.-) It is much higher and longer, the stairs. Previously, Gollum's plot was to get rid of Sam and he can lure Frodo into the cave and he can have his "precious". Gollum managed to tell Frodo that Sam was the one who wanted to get the ring, Frodo believed Gollum. Gollum also accused that Sam ate all the Lembas bread that the elven queen gave them, but it was Gollum who threw all the bread down the stairs.At the top of the stairs, at the entrance of the cave, Sam said the wrong thing, Frodo said to him in the face and asked him to leave, which means climbing down the stairs again. Sam was devastated and left weeping. Frodo and Gollum went in the cave. But actually the cave wasn't an empty caves, it was wide and huge that could fit a gigantic monster, it had a stench smell, and lots of spider webs. The cave belongs to a hideous monster named Shelob, and the cave was her lair. 



Gollum was way infront of Frodo, Frodo, finally sensed something unusual, followed him but slowly, he came to this spider web and took out Sting and start slashing the webs one by one. He stumbled on one and ended up caught in the web. Gollum caught him but flee immediately when he saw a monstrous shadow. Frodo panicked, the shadow was getting smaller, the next thing he knew, he was facing a giant spider, Shelob. Sam was going down, sobbing, he found crumbs of bread on the ground, he was pissed and realized he made the biggest mistake, he climbed up again and rescued Frodo. Frodo used Sting to free himself from the web. He was tired of running, he took out the phial that Galadriel gave to him. When suddenly, Frodo heard no noise. When he turned he got stung my Shelob, she wrapped Frodo with web and carried him away. Sam made it, he found Sting and the phial and decided to use it as weapons. But it was all too late. Okay, this is not a summary, I'm basically telling the whole story. I'm just giving a summary from now. NOW. 



Sam fighting Shelob
Sam found Shelob and fought her, Sam found Frodo, he thought that Frodo died (not) He wept and suddenly heard orcs coming his way, he hid behind the rocks. As the orcs approached, they saw Frodo and said "he" will be glad to see this, and the orcs took Frodo away. Shelob finally ran away, she was afraid of Sam. Sam decided to go for Frodo, he made a bad decision. Sam went to Cirith Ungol to save his master, Frodo. 



Meanwhile, the Battle of Osgilliath happened, Aragorn, Legolas and Gimli gathered their own army of death. Gandalf and the others were busying slaying the enemies. Then comes the Battle of Pelennor Field, Eowyn secretly went to the battle field together with Merry without King Theoden knowing. Eowyn also killed the witch-king, but she was badly injured. Theoden was lying down with deep wounds and scars, Eowyn crawled towards Theoden, He told her that there was nothing she could to and he was proud of her, with that, he past away. Eowyn fainted.

Sam managed to rescued Frodo and continued their journey to Mount Doom. The ring was really heavy, Frodo's neck was injued because of the ring. Sam told Frodo: I can't carry the ring for you, but I can carry you. So Sam carried Frodo. (I cried at this part)

The most epic battle, The battle of the Black Gate, everyone was there, well their army compared to Sauron's is like a rice grain to a ping pong ball. But, in the middle of the fight, Sauron's tower collapsed, every orc or goblins dissapeared into ash. There's only one reason for this: The ring was destroyed. Peace was once again restored. Aragorn was crowned king of Gondor and once again together with Arwen. Legolas, Aragorn and Gimli went back. The hobbits were back in Hobbiton, they celebrated in Green Dragon Inn, soon, Sam married his love, Rosie Cotton. Frodo and Gandalf with Bilbo together with the elven-kings, Galadriel (and others) went to the undying lands. Merry and Pippin bid Sam and Frodo goodbye. Sam went home to his family, Rosie and his cute little daughter. 

the story ends with Sam saying: Well, I'm back.
