I didn't understand this so I looked it up.

Pretty cool.

So there were five godlike beings sent to fight Sauron. Only one of them did his job.

I need to reword it.

You are the big cool powerful god. One of your servants, a minor much less powerful god does bad things to the world. So you send five your other servants just as powerful as the bad one to deal with him.

A lot of time passes. Three of those spend their time chilling. One joins the bad one. The last one turns out too weak. Who solves the problem? Four hobbits.

You really should reconsider your politics after that.

But in the end, the task was successful, so everyone did what they were supposed to... Right?

Nice try, Saruman.

I think we can all agree that, as a team, collectively, the Istari did a great job!
