    I've lived in places where I had no space to set aside for ritual activity. I was able to use a little

    agic to acquire this place, where I have a room set aside for magical operations. You don't really

    ed such a space to perform magic.

    I've put this together like this (rather than the scrap book) because my internet not working, and

    ave to upload this with a dial up modem. Hence, this file must be small. This was created because

    me people want to know more about me. So I'll show you.

    Below is are three items I was drawn to and obtained recently. The crystal ball had the stronge

    ll. It called my attention while I was driving down a road. I turned around and went back to what w

    old store which looked as if it had once housed farm animals. An old korean man walked up and

    ked me what I wanted. I knew I couldn't afford it, but I knew I would have it. I just smiled.

    A few days later, I walked out of that store with the crystal ball somehow acquired at about 1/1

    e cost of this $900 object. I'd like to consider my crystal ball the groups Palantir. If you don't know

    hat a Palantir is, you may read the description at the end of this document.

    I placed the magical ball into the corner, so that I can meditate on it without distraction. I placed

    life with shadows and rays of its own, leaving me to feel the presence of something very conscio

    thin it. And the base, the crystal stand, allows it to spin freely for a long time. This candle, by the

    PalantrFrom Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    A palantr is a magical artifact from J. R. R. Tolkien's fantasylegendarium. A palantr

    (sometimes translated as Seeing Stonebut actually meaning "Farsighted" or "One that

    Sees from Afar") is a stone that functions somewhat like a crystal ball.

    The palantrof Orthanc, used by the powerful wizard Saruman in Peter Jackson's film

    adaptation of The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring.

    Origins and characteristics

    When one looks into a palantr, one can communicate with other such stones and anyone

    who might be looking into them; beings of great power can manipulate the Stones to see

    virtually any part of the world. They were made by the Elves of Valinor in the Uttermost

    West, by the Noldor and maybe even Fanor himself. Many palantriwere made, but the

    number is not known. Some had power over other Stones. The stones were of various

    sizes. The smallest had a diameter of about a foot, while the largest filled a large

    chamber. The larger stones allowed one to walk around them, thereby changing the

    viewpoint of its vision. The Master Stone was kept in the tower of Avalln on Tol

    Eressa, but no record is made of successful communication from any palantrof Middle-

    earth to this one. They are believed to have a power over people, as seen from the

    experience of Peregrin Took and the Orthanc-stone.[1]

    However, it is unclear if Pippin's

    compulsion to use the Orthanc-stone was imparted by the stone itself, or if it was a result

    of Sauron's influence over it. According to Gandalf, it is beyond the skill of both Sauron

    and Saruman to create the palantriand that Sauron cannot make the palantri"lie", or

    create false images (though he could show selective images to create a false impression

    on the viewer).

    The stones' gaze can pierce anything except darkness and shadow. A technique called

    shroudingwas used when something was to be kept secret from the enemies' eyes.

    Knowledge of this technique was lost long ago, although Sauron probably knew of it.

    In Middle-earth

    Some of the stones were given to the Dnedain of Nmenor as a gift, during the Second

    Age. Of these, Elendil took seven with him on his flight to Middle-earth, and after the

    Kingdoms in Exile had been established, they were distributed among seven places: four

    in Gondor and three in Arnor. Sauron captured the palantrof Minas Ithil and used it to

    corrupt Saruman who had the palantrof Orthanc and Denethor who had the palantrof

    Minas Tirith. By the end of the Third Age, three had been lost forever, one was buried

    amongst the ruins of the Dark Tower of Barad-dr and a fifth had been rendered virtually

    unusable (the palantrof Minas Tirith showed only the burning hands of Denethor save to

    those with the strength of will to turn it elsewhere). Of the two remaining functional

    stones, one was retained by the king of the Reunited Kingdom; the other was taken from

    Middle-earth by the Elves.

    Stones of Arnor

    Elostirion

    One Stone, called Elendil's Stone, was placed in the tower of Elostirion in the Tower

    Hills, just west of the Shire. Its location was only known to a few and it remained hidden

    there until it was taken back to the West with the three Elven Rings. It was unique among

    the Stones brought to Middle-earth, in that it did not communicate with the others and

    would only look west along the Straight Road to Avalln.

    Amon Sl

    The palantrof Amon Sl, most powerful of the three in Arnor, was kept for centuries in

    the Watchtower of Amon Sl. When Arnor was divided into three kingdoms, all of them

    claimed Amon Sl, largely because of the palantr. Just before Angmar captured and

    destroyed the Watchtower in T.A. 1409, the Stone was removed and taken to Fornost. It

    remained there until Fornost too was overrun, when Arvedui took it to Forochel. It was

    lost in T.A. 1975 when the ship on which he was travelling foundered in an ice storm.

    Annminas

    The last Stone of the North was placed in Annminas on the shores of Lake Evendim.

    When Annminas was abandoned and the Kings moved to Fornost, they took the palantr

    with them. This stone was also lost when Arvedui was shipwrecked.

    Stones of Gondor

    Osgiliath

    The Stone of Osgiliath was the largest and most powerful of the seven. It alone could

    "eavesdrop" on the others (only two palantricould communicate with each other at one

    time, and none other but the Osgiliath stone could intercept that communication). It was

    placed in a tower on the great bridge in Osgiliath that crossed the Anduin. The domed

    ceiling was painted to resemble a starry sky, and gave its name (os-giliath, the Dome of

    Stars) to the city itself. This Stone was the first to be lost: during the civil war of the Kin-

    strife around the middle of the Third Age, the Dome of Stars was destroyed and the

    palantrfell into the Anduin.

    Minas Ithil (Minas Morgul)

    One Stone was placed at Minas Ithil in the mountains that came to be known as the

    Ephel Dath. When Minas Ithil fell to the Nazgl in T.A. 2002, the Ithil-stone came into

    Sauron's hands, and leading up to the War of the Ring was kept by him in Barad-dr. It

    was presumably lost at the fall of Sauron. The stones are virtually indestructible, but it

    would be buried in the wreckage of the Dark Tower.

    Orthanc

    One Stone was placed at Angrenost (Isengard) in Orthanc, the great tower built by the

    Dnedain in the Second Age at the southern end of the Misty Mountains. In T.A. 2759,

    Saruman obtained the keys of Orthanc from Beren, the ruling Steward of Gondor,

    possibly because Saruman desired to use the palantrto garner information on his

    neighbours and their activities. The stone was also partially responsible for Saruman's fall

    from grace, as he was using it when he came upon Sauron, and was ensnared by him,

    though his transformation to one of the fallen Maiar had undoubtedly begun much earlier.

    Saruman later used the stone to confer with Sauron through the Ithil-stone in Barad-dr.

    By showing Saruman selective visions of his new armies, Sauron convinced the Wizard

    that he was going to win the War of the Ring, regardless of whether he actually found the

    One Ring.

    Later, Grma Wormtongue cast the stone down from Orthanc, where it was recovered by

    Peregrin Took and turned over to Gandalf. Peregrin inadvertently contacted Sauron, after

    which Gandalf turned the stone over to Aragorn.

    Using the stone, Aragorn declared himself as the heir of Isildur to Sauron, seeking to

    distract him from Frodo. Sauron was led to believe that the One Ring had fallen into the

    hands of Aragorn or some other Western leader, and this was partly responsible for

    Sauron's hasty assault against Gondor. Sauron's attack, before he was fully ready,

    deeply influenced the outcome of the war. The Orthanc-stone remained in the custody of

    the Kings of Gondor in the Fourth Age, the only one to remain fully functional.

    Minas Anor

    One Stone, the "palantrof Anrion", was placed at Minas Anor, which eventually

    became the capital of Gondor and was renamed Minas Tirith. This palantrwas used by

    the Kings of Gondor, but when Minas Ithil fell to the Ringwraiths, Ernil II stopped using it

    not only did Sauron now have access to the network, but the palantrof Anrion had the

    strongest link of all seven to the Ithil-stone. The Stone was not used again for many

    centuries, until Steward Denethor II, began to use it in an attempt to find out the enemy's

    movements and better protect his city. Eventually, Sauron encountered him (it seems that

    Denethor did not know he had actually been in contact with Sauron himself). Denethor,

    unlike Saruman, did not turn to wickedness, but his great efforts of will, regularly fighting

    against Sauron, caused him to age quickly. Furthermore, with the Ithil-stone, Sauron

    largely controlled what Denethor saw, leading to the latter's despair and insanity. For

    instance, Denethor saw a black fleet of apparent reinforcements for Sauron's forces

    coming from supposedly safe territory, unaware that the ships are actually carrying

    Aragorn's forces coming to relieve the city. Denethor was holding the stone when he

    committed suicide on a funeral pyre, and afterwards it was rendered virtually unusable,

    as only people of great strength would see in it anything other than two flaming withered

    hands.

    In adaptations

    Aragorn reveals himself, using the Palantr of Orthanc, to Sauron (top), and Sauron retaliates

    with a vision of the dead (mortal) Arwen to Aragorn (bottom).

    In Peter Jackson's The Lord of the Ringsfilms, the palantriof Minas Ithil, Orthanc, and

    Minas Anor (Minas Tirith) are included with alterations. As a consequence of eliminating

    the Battle of Bywater, Saruman is killed by Wormtongue much earlier (at the beginning of

    the extended edition of The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King) and the palantrof

    Orthanc is transferred to Gandalf by means of Pippin retrieving it from Saruman's corpse

    instead of Wormtongue throwing it from the tower window.

    Aragorn also reveals himself to Sauron after the Battle of the Pelennor Fields in the

    extended version of The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King. It is unclear in the

    films whether Aragorn uses the palantrof Minas Anor or Orthanc to do this. In the book

    the revelation was the primary factor for Sauron's assault on Minas Tirith before he had

    fully readied his forces. This plot element is partially transferred to Pippin's use of the

    palantrin the films. Here, Aragorn is luring Sauron to the Battle of the Morannon, and

    Sauron responds by showing him a vision of a dying Arwen.
