During the council of Elrond, Gandalf mentions that Saruman had made his own ring. Did it have any power, or was it simply something to make Gandalf anxious? If it was an elven ring, did it have any connection to the minds of the bearers of the other Great Rings? And what became of this mysterious ring of Saruman's after his deafeat? Gandalf broke Saruman's staff, but he didn't (as far as we know) get hold of his ring.
Any comments?
