<p>96.10.211.227: fixed grammar</p> <hr /> <div>The '''Stone of Osgiliath''', the greatest of the seven [[palantíri]] of [[Middle-earth]], was the Stone that stood in [[Osgiliath]], the ancient capital of [[Gondor]]. For 1,500 years or more, it was held beneath the [[Dome of Stars]] that gave the city its name. While most of the palantíri were small and portable, the Stone of Osgiliath was much larger, and could not be lifted by a [[Men|Man]].<br /> <br /> The greatest of the Seeing-stones was also the first to be lost. During the early reign of [[Eldacar]], a rebellion arose that came to be known as the [[Kin-strife]]. During this civil war, the city of Osgiliath was besieged and burned by the rebels, and the Stone was lost in the waters of the River [[Anduin]].<br /> <br /> [[Category:Palantíri]]</div>

<p>96.10.211.227: corrected spelling</p> <hr /> <div>The '''Nine Rings''' were those of the [[Rings of Power]] that [[Sauron]] used to corrupt [[Men]] to his service; those who took the Nine Rings became the [[Nazgûl]].<br /> <br /> ==Effect==<br /> The rings of men(or the nine) gave their wearer powerful magical abilities and made gave them the ability to influence peoples' will. The rings also gave a very long life, but the wearer would begin to feel worn out and eventually fade away into a wraith. The nine kings given the rings turned into [[ringwraiths]] because Sauron was able to take control of the rings.<br /> <br /> ==History==<br /> The rings were made along with the others in [[Eregion]] and were forged by [[Celebrimbor]]. The nine were locked away in one of the safes of [[Eregion]], but all of the nine were captured by Sauron, who gave them to nine kings of men, three of which were [[Númenor|Numenorean]] kings. The owners of the nine eventually became the [[Nazgûl]]. <br /> <br /> {{rings}}<br /> <br /> [[Category:Rings and Jewels]]</div>
