'The Rings of Power' brings deeper elements of J.R.R. Tolkien's lore to the small screen, some of which may not be common knowledge to the casual fan.
Before diving headfirst into the series, here’s everything to know about its time period, the Second Age, prior to pressing play.is based off of the appendices of, focused on the history of Middle-earth’s Second Age. For reference, the Jackson trilogy took place in the Third Age, thousands of years after the events ofAs for what the show is legally allowed to cover, Amazon only bought the screen rights toand the novels’ appendices, the last of which are located in Tolkien’s third volume,.
By the end of the second episode, the show’s characters, both new and old, have begun their respective arcs for the season, some journeying to new lands, and others encountering new friends — and enemies. When we meet young Elrond , he’s living in the elven stronghold of Lindon. Thanks to the show’s immense production value, Lindon’s grandeur is a sight to behold, as viewers get a glimpse into the beauty of Tolkien’s imaginings of the elves in all their glory. Located on the far western side of the continent, Lindon is a gateway to paradise, serving as the connecting region between Middle-earth and the elves’ home realm Valinor, often referred to as the Undying Lands.
Similarly, Galadriel anchors the first two episodes with her quest to defeat Sauron’s evil once and for all. While she’s a warrior-commander inthe last time audiences saw Galadriel in the Jackson trilogy, she was the Lady of Lothlórien, a land of trees in the Golden Forest. Played by Blanchett, the Lady of Lothlórien is compassionate, extremely powerful and unfathomably old, having lived thousands upon thousands of years.
Of the four diverging plotlines that begin in the first two episodes, one of them follows the harfoots — a nomadic group of Middle-earth dwellers that may remind viewers of the beloved hobbits such as Frodo, Sam, Merry and Pippin from the original trilogy. Like the hobbits, the harfoots are smaller than humans and elves, and live simple and cheerful lives. Indeed, harfoots are also ancestors to the hobbits of The Shire.
