In the [[Second Age (Middle-earth)|Second Age]] Sauron disguised himself as ''Annatar'', the "Lord of Gifts". He came to the Elves of Eregion and taught them many things he had learned from his former master Aulë, which resulted in the forging of the [[Rings of Power]]. Together with Annatar the Elves made the Nine and the Seven. The Three were made by Celebrimbor without Sauron knowing, making them free of his taint. Sauron himself forged in secret the [[One Ring (Middle-earth)|One Ring]] in the fire of the Sammath Naur of [[Mount Doom]], pouring into it half of his power and lifeforce and will, to control and rule the other Rings and all of Middle-earth.
