Can Sauron return after the Ring was destroyed?
Can Sauron return after the Ring was destroyed? Sauron did not die completely after the Ring was destroyed. However, his power was diminished, so low that his spirit could never recover, let alone a physical form. He would remain “a mere spirit of malice that gnaws itself in the shadows, but cannot again grow or take shape.”
Who was Sauron’s master?
Melkor was the most powerful of the Valar but turned to darkness and was renamed Morgoth, the definitive antagonist of Arda. All evil in the world of Middle-earth ultimately stems from him. One of the Maiar of Aulë betrayed his kind and became Morgoth’s principal lieutenant and successor, Sauron.
Is Sauron gone forever?
Sauron does survive in some form after the destruction of the Ring. However, since he put so much of his own power into the Ring, he only exists as an evil spirit and cannot do anything. Instead of having control over all the people of Middle Earth, Sauron barely has control over his own fate.
