Wait, that was NARSIL?? I completely missed the significance of that, how awesome indeed

2022-09-13 21:39:21 +0000 UTCI should add: Adar is not a mentioned epithet for Sauron in the books - but I assume it's one they made for the show. It sounds very similar to Annatar and Artano - which were epithets he used in the books. Adar also means "father" I'm pretty sure so the Orcs calling Sauron that makes sense

2022-09-09 17:07:06 +0000 UTCWasn't expecting to see Adar aka Annatar aka Sauron the Deceiver so early in the show (guess it makes sense given the title of the episode) but I'm actually glad they didn't give us a clear view. I also firmly believe the "stranger" is a Blue Wizard. In some versions of the Lore (Tolkien wasn't consistent) they were sent to Middle Earth in the late second age to counteract Sauron's rise. It's the only Istari it could possibly make sense for. And it makes sense with the focus on the Southlands. SO hyped about them showing a bunch of Numenor - and I love this version of Narsil, it feels more like what the books talked about than what we saw in LOTR in my opinion.
