"I Just Can't": Sauron's Darkest Moment as a Founder

There are some days I just don't even know why I made the one ring

God. I know.

Look, it's really hard. I had a plan. It was a really good plan. But it locked me in.

I went hard on this one-ring thing. I know what you're thinking… can't you just do anything?

Well, that's the point. I can't. I went all in. I made it all about one ring.

God. To be honest, I don't even know what the ring does. I mean, it makes other people invisible. That's like a definite superpower or something. And it makes me really powerful, or at least I think so. But it's just been so long. It’s like I'm in withdrawal.

If I had any advice for the rest of middle earth, it would be don't do what I did. If you're going to do some thing, and you wanna go big, at least make it possible to do something else next.
