 | | The making of the rings was such an undertaking that when Sauron planned to make the One Ring he had to place a majority of his power in that ring in order to hold sway over the other rings made by the elves. |
 | | They remained hidden, and the whereabouts of two were not revealed until the end of the Third Age, after the One Ring was destroyed, and the Dark Lord Sauron was overthrown (Galadriel reveals her possession of one of the rings to Frodo in Fellowship of the Ring). |
 | | It could, however, be argued that the possession of the three rings were hinted at during the council of the ring in the Fellowship of the Ring, where Elrond advises that that neither he, nor Lórien, nor the Havens have the power to withstand the might of Mordor. |
