But wanted to be free of the influence of both Gollum and the Ring. In the end, is the "Sword of the Spirit" in Sam's hand that cuts away the Ring, and the last of the flesh that still clung to it, and free Frodo from the influence of evil. Excellent answers! One additional point is that Frodo, alone of all the ringbearers, was given the ring of free will. He did not acquire the ring by cheating or murder. Frodo and Gandalf, in the chapter The Shadow of the Past, discuss how Gollum could not give up the ring, where Bilbo did:.
He could not get rid of it. He had no will left in the matter. It may slip off treacherously, but its keeper never abandons it. But as far as I know Bilbo alone in history has ever gone beyond playing, and really done it. He needed all my help, too. And even so he would never have just forsaken it, or cast it aside. It was not Gollum, Frodo, but the Ring itself that decided things.
The Ring left him. It might be helpful to start by recalling what was said about Tom Bombadil. When someone said that Bombadil had power over the ring, another person said that he would put it differently, that the ring had no power over Bombadil. Of all the races in middle earth, the hobbits are the most Bombadil-like. They don't crave power or beautiful things. No hobbit ever killed another hobbit in anger or so it was said in the Scouring of the Shire.
It is also worth recalling what Gandalf said about Bilbo, that he took so little hurt from the ring because the first thing he did when he possessed it was to spare Gollum's life. Perhaps Frodo possessed some of Bilbo's wisdom innately, and surely his own wisdom grew. He offers the ring to more than one person. Their reasons for refusing are helpful in understanding the ring's nature, but probably Frodo grew to understand the ring better himself.
Also the fact that he was willing to give the ring up suggests that it had less control over him than it might have had. Sign up to join this community. The best answers are voted up and rise to the top.

Here it seems to be the opposite Both make the holder master of death, and both must be destroyed because their power will inevitably lure good men into darkness.
Harry knows Voldemort must die at his hand according to the prophecy, but first Harry himself must die to destroy the final Horcrux. Harry, like Frodo, faces his death with courage because he knows that it will be worth it if it means Voldemort is destroyed forever. But because Harry holds the Deathly Hallows, he returns from death to fight Voldemort one last time.
After his mission is complete, Harry destroys the Elder Wand, even though he is its rightful owner. The ring had the power to corrupt a person. So taking the ring to the mountain was itself a very hard task to achieve. While fighting over the ring, Frodo was the one who stepped forward to volunteer in carrying the ring to the mountain where it was forged.
Everybody then decided to let him carry the ring. For five hundred years deep within the Misty Mountains, it corrupted him, and he became the creature Gollum, who called the Ring his « precious ». Ring-bearers In total, the One Ring existed for c. Sauron was by far the one to carry it for the most time c. This is because he only desires to garden and help his friends. Only one pure of heart and free of desire with a strong-willed mind could have carried the Ring without giving into its will.
Frodo was the only choice. It answers to Sauron, and Sauron alone. A transliteration was seen when Gandalf read the ring-inscription during the Council of Elrond. Roughly translated, the words mean: One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them, One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them.
While it is an Elvish sword, it does not appear to glow blue or glow at all, for that matter when Thorin is in the presence of Orcs in the film. This reflects the fact that Glamdring did not glow in the films as well.
Eomer was always next in line to be king, however if he and Theoden had both died in combat, the title would have fallen to Eowyn. Fortunately Eomer did make it and claimed the title as the King of Rohan. Meanwhile, Eowyn marries Faramir. Eowyn was poisoned by the black breath of the Nazgul.
