Year 3434 of the Second Age... here follows the account of Isildur, high King of Gondor and the finding of the Ring of Power. «It has come to me, the One Ring which shall be an heirloom of my kingdom. All that will follow in my bloodline shall be bound to its fate for I shall risk no hurt to the ring! It is precious to me, though I abide with a great pain. Markings upon the band begin to fade. The writing which at first was as clear as red flame, has all but disappeared, a secret now that only fire can tell».

Fire... It's a living thing. It breathes, it eats, and it hates. The only way to beat it is to think like it. To know that this flame will spread this way across the door and up across the ceiling, not because of the physics of flammable liquids, but because it wants to. Some guys on this job, the fire owns them, makes 'em fight it on it's level, but the only way to truly kill it is to love it a little.
