From Elrond to the Fall of Númenór, there is a lot that audiences should know before watching Prime Video's The LordoftheRings: The Rings of Power series.
The battle for Middle-earth draws near with the premiere of The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power. Set long before the events of The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings trilogy, this new series will depict Middle-earth’s war with the Dark Lord Sauron during the Second Age and the forging of the titular Rings of Power. This show will be the first big Hollywood adaptation of J.R.R.
The Dark Lord Morgoth Some people may think Sauron is the greatest threat to Middle-earth, but there was once another. Sauron was once a lieutenant to Melkor, the most powerful member of the immortal Valar. However, Melkor rebelled against his creator, the One God Eru, turned to evil, and became known as Morgoth .
The Two Trees of Valinor One of the most striking images seen in the show so far is that of the Two Trees of Valinor. Readers of Tolkien know that the Valar planted these trees to act as the primary source of light in the world after the destruction of the Two Lamps. But after Morgoth destroyed both trees with the help of the primordial spider Ungoliant , the Valar transformed the remaining flower and fruit into the Sun and Moon.
Celebrimbor This Elven-smith is an important character in Middle-earth’s history, as he is the one who forges the Rings of Power for Sauron. As a member of the House of Fëanor, Celebrimbor carries a great legacy, as his grandfather forged the three Silmarils that were stolen and fought over during the First Age. Perhaps the weight of his family history will factor in his decision to create the Rings of Power, unwittingly setting the stage for another great war.
Elrond This legendary elf is widely known to be the leader of Rivendell. But in the Second Age, Elrond served as the herald of Gil-galad, the last High King of Noldor, until the latter’s death at the hands of Sauron. Elrond also has strong connections beyond Middle-earth, as he is the brother of Elros, the first king of Númenór. They will all undoubtedly be a significant part of Elrond’s journey in the series as they all face the Dark Lord’s wrath.
