If you looked at the map from before, and previous episodes, and the 'symbol' that Galadriel thought was Sauron's 'brand', youd know that what they consider the 'Southlands' is actually Mordor. And that dormant volcano that they re-ignited by flash-vaporizing the water and exploding everything is Mt. Doom. Adar successfully executed that plan. What. An. Episode.

That Mount Doom scene was nerve racking

Best episode so far

Also this Halbrand being Sauron theory is interesting. With him asking Adar "do you remember me". Maybe Adar did actually try to kill Sauron but he survived? idk curious to find out where the Halbrand story goes

Sauron is a maia, a lesser angelic spirit (Morgoth was a Vala, a mighty angelic spirit). They don't have flesh originally and made vessels.

This was the awakening of Mount Doom upon the return of Sauron to his lands (the King they were promised) and the beginning of the Southlands becoming Mordor.

The stunts and fight choreography were so good! Adar is most likely a new character, but a very interesting one for sure. Sauron is most likely with the Elves already, whispering into Celebrimbor's ear and giving him the idea for the forge and making the Rings of Power.

Super enjoyed this ep. more exciting things to come next week.

I actually liked Galadriel in this episode. Earlier she was one dimensional and just sour all the time, now we know why. She is so affected by the darkness that even Adar notices it.... She has a reason for being sour, she's blinded by hate and vengance. Yes we've noticed it a little bit before, but in this episode we could actually feel it in her words when she talked to Adar. It was more believable. For me this worked, and made the character interesting, finally. I can see that GETJaby didn't see it this way, which just means that it clearly wasn't enough to make everyone happy about the character. But Im glad it helped me, because I like Galadriel from Lord of the Rings and I really needed her character to make sense in this show, as I actually did not like her character after the second episode. Now we're seing more depth to her, and it resembles her when she touched the one ring in Lotr. She always had an inner darkness that would want to rule and be feared as a beautiful and terrifying queen. The way she talks to Adar feels like this side of her. I think we'll see how she overcomes the darkness in this show, as she clearly has defeated most of her dakrness in Lotr, which is why she denies the ring from Frodo. She "passed the test" as she says herself. I mean, it makes sense... Galadriel always had darkness in her.... This show is fleshing it out for us, and Im sure we'll get to see more of it, and perhapse her character will make more sense. I think we just have to get used to Galadriel as not a "nice" character, but as a troublesome and powerhungry one.

After this episode i am starting to believe the 'hallbrand is sauron' theory.

Finally the show kicks off after the slow grind we had for the first 5 episodes. The very first episode i felt like yes this is the kinda pace i wanted or rather expected from the beginning, but the pay off was worth the wait. I really enjoyed this episode and the theory about Halbrand being Sauron is an interesting one something to look forward too. I also felt that Bronwyn saying to Halbrand that "are you the king we were promised?" was way too on the nose. Like too much spoon feeding the viewer.

I'm not gonna lie... This episode was very entertaining and beautiful... I have my problems with The Rings of Power, but this episode... was amazing!

An off the wall thought, but I wondered if Adar meant by " he split open" Sauron that Sauron has split his spirit (the unseen that he was researching) into multiple people who he is influencing. That would explain how he's able to influence the elves, pharazon and Halbrand all at the same time. Might be nonsense, but it's a thought.

Mount Doom has nothing to do with Morgoth and he certainly didn't create it. Sauron discovered it while looking for a home.

One has to remember that Tolkien was first and foremost a professor of linguistics - Old Norse and Old English is particular. His stories were a way to play with the linguistics of mythology and all of his character names have meanings in old Norse or old English that correspond to an aspect of the personality or purpose and are often straight up borrowed from Norse Mythology. Gandalf in Norse for example means Wand elf. Why do I bother mentioning this? Well because I think the show runners are aware of this and should have applied this rule to any new characters they created… Halbrand is one of these new characters and in old Norse would mean either burning neck or in a more archaic form, “man of fire” Jus thought I’d point this out

When Galdriel was chasing the Head Orc/Elf dude, she said to her horse in Elvish the words "noro lim", which means basically ride faster.

Helbrand pulled a Daemon.

Those of you who said Halbrand is Sauron, you were completely right. After watching this episode I'm 99% sure he's Sauron. He's so tricky, pokerface and on top of that Adar mentioned he killed Sauron and Halbrand wanted revenge. And Queen of Numenor named him the king of Southlands. And after Bronwyn asked him: Are you the king we've been promised? The way he proudly responded: Yes, I am", there it made me sure he's absolutely Sauron. I loved this episode so much, mostly the fight choreography.

I would be very surprised if Halbrand was Sauron, given that he'd have to do double duty both as Halbrand and deceiving Celembrimbor into ring-crafting: I very much doubt that the Elves would take advice from men in crafting rings of power. The only way I could see it working is if Halbrand starts to convince Pharazon to take up arms against Valinor, and then it's through this Numenor-Southland alliance that Halbrand corrupts Pharazon into the island's downfall, and THEN he starts working on the Elves with ring-crafting.

Can I share your video as a reaction video on my channel?

Adar is one of the original elves tainted by Morgoth, Sauron's master. He is one of the first ever Uruks(Orcs). He calls the Orcs his children because all other Orcs came from his kind. It actually makes sense that he did kill Sauron since Adar knew him as asecondary to a greater god. Also remember, Sauron cannot be killed at this point, but the form that he holds can be. He's one of the demi gods of this world. He's a shape changer and his spirit can reform a physical form, think Gandalf being dead and then coming back as the white wizard. Sauron binding himself to the one ring is what gives him a weakness that lets him be killed once and for all.

Hey....halbrand Looks mysterious..so muchhh

They’ve never had a king probably in their lifetimes. They have no cultural habits or etiquette that they need to bow or whatever. Having a king has been nothing more than a theoretical concept to the people of the Southlands. It’s like if you were to be transported to a royal court in some country. You will have literally no idea if you should bow or not bow or even how to ask a question. So I think the scene was more authentic because the people ended up just mimicking what the Queen was doing, which was simply hailing Halbrand.

I didn't realise there was only 7 episodes
