      “And now at last it comes. You will give me the Ring freely! In place of the Dark Lord you will set up a Queen. And I shall not be dark, but beautiful and terrible as the Morning and the Night! Fair as the Sea and the Sun and the Snow upon the Mountain! Dreadful as the Storm and the Lightning! Stronger than the foundations of the earth. All shall love me and despair!”

      Kinda dope.

          The whole thing's feudalism vs theocracy, so it'd be hard to twist it that way. At least I think Mordor would be a theocracy, does it count if the leader's a god-king but no one really worships him?

      That feels more like a reference to the plot of the Lord of the Rings, i.e. destroying the ring, rather than an explicit signifier that you think Sauron was based, actually
