Description:

“If [Sauron] regains [the Ring], your valour is vain, and his victory will be swift and complete: so complete that none can foresee the end of it while this world lasts.”

Gandalf at The Last Debate.

…

Gandalf was considered among the Wise, and his advice and predictions were seldom wrong. But though indeed it seemed, for a while, that Sauron’s reign would endure until the last age had passed, it was not so.
...

The grass still grew long on the wide plains, and thick in the hidden valleys of the mountain range, stubborn as weeds. Last to give way, and first to re-grow, though trampled by iron-shoes.

Notes:

This series is a dark AU, to be told in six books, echoing the six books of "The Lord of the Rings".

The story diverts from the LotR at the slope of Mount Doom, where Sam kills Gollum before Frodo reach the fire and the Quest fails.
