A battle of the heartIn the book The Lord of the Rings, the Fellowship of the Ring by JRR Tolkien Frodo Baggins was raised by Bilbo Baggins, a hobbit who disappeared without leaving of trace and came back with crazy stories and a ring, which he kept secret from almost everyone, and the ring helped him disappear on his 111th birthday. As heir, Frodo inherited not only the Cul de Sac but also the ring. Frodo's inherited responsibility with the ring led the young hobbit on a journey in which he waged battle against the evil powers of Sauron. The conflict in the story between man and man occurs when Frodo fights a battle of good versus evil between himself and Sauron. Recognized as the protagonist of the epic, Frodo had a temperament well suited to fighting evil and Sauron. Frodo was brave, selfless, wise, observant, polite and selfless and it was these traits that helped him fight against Sauron. "A Ring of Power takes care of itself, Frodo. It may slip treacherously, but its keeper never forsakes it", as Gandalf said, this meant that even if Sauron did not have the ring and didn't know its location, he still had complete control of it "It wasn't Gollum...but the Ring itself that decided things. The Ring left him." And in other words, it meant that Sauron's influence was not defeated by the absence of the Ring, but only shortened and expanded. The Ring will always be found and it will at all times return to its creator so that its sinful nature can be complete. The way Frodo fought against Sauron's wishes to obtain the One Ring was that Frodo refused to wear the Ring and use its powers even though they were intended for good and Gandalf's words encouraged him "Do not tempt me! For I do not wish to become like the Dark Lord himself. Yet the Ring's path to my heart is through pity, pity for weakness and the desire to strengthen myself to do the good. “Many who live deserve to die. And some who die deserve life. them ? So don't be too eager to inflict death on them in judgment. For even the wisest cannot see all ends. » These are Gandalf's words as to why he did not kill Gollum, however these words come true at the end of the book where the Ring succeeded in harming Frodo and the Fellowship.
