I'm sorry if someone else already said this, but I haven't had a chance to read through all the posts yet... Why WOULD the Ring abandon Isildur? 1.) Was Sauron's will calling out to it at all at that point? 2.) Didn't the Ring prefer to be found by Sauron? Wasn't it trying to get back to it's maker's hand?

Could Gollum sense the Ring/Was he attracted to it?

I don't think the Ring burned Gollum...

Perhaps the burning is meant in more ways than one.

Or Eru worked through the small window of Gollum that...
