As a Dawn, I approve and co-sign this plan.
My goals for 2026 are simple. I shall be:

1. Not dark, but beautiful and terrible as the Dawn!

2. Treacherous as the Sea!

3. Stronger than the foundations of the earth!

4. All shall love the new me, and despair!

GANDALF: Can you see anything?

FRODO: There's nothing…Wait. There are markings. It's some form of Elvish. I can't read it.

GANDALF: There are few who can. The language is that of Mordor, which I will not utter here. In the common tongue it says, "Light the lamp, not the rat."
