The second season of The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power races towards its climax with the penultimate episode. Last week’s episode concluded with a fiery and devastating attack on the elves of Eregion. Celebrimbor (Charles Edwards) succumbed to Sauron’s (Charlie Vickers) deceptive hallucination, forcing Galadriel (Morfydd Clark) into an unlikely alliance with Adar (Sam Hazeldine). Meanwhile, in Numenor, the ocean chose its queen. So let’s get into Rings of Power season 2, episode 7.
This season has consistently improved with each episode. The escalating tension across each faction is a testament to the show’s exceptional writing. this episode masterfully weaves together the season’s various plot threads. While some loose ends remain, hopefully, the season finale will provide resolution. I had so many feelings watching this episode. I am so anxious for next week’s season finale and so upset the season has come to an end so soon. There is so much to go back to in the final episode. I genuinely don’t know how they are going to wrap everything up. The episode literally ends with; the elves still mid battle, and Adar getting Galadriel’s ring of power. Then we have the fact that King is cutting down his own people because of the rings influence and Sauron has finally demonstrated his power over flesh, and it is remarkably dangerous.
