Cast
Epic drama set thousands of years before the events of J.R.R.
The crumbled mithril has been coming in handy, and the work is progressing nicely.
Mirdania (Amelia Kenworthy) and the leader of the Elven troops ask Annatar for Celebrimbor’s orders.
Epic drama set thousands of years before the events of J.R.R. Tolkien’s ‘The Hobbit’ and ‘The Lord of the Rings’ follows an ensemble cast of characters, both familiar and new, as they confront the long-feared re-emergence of evil to Middle-earth.
He tells them that Celebrimbor refuses to authorize a counterattack, and that he will be assuming command instead.
But that’s not his most pressing concern right now.
Durin returns to his and Disa’s home, where Elrond (Robert Aramayo) has been snuck in.
Mirdania watches from the ramparts as a war machine called a Ravager is wheeled in.
The candles, too, he notes, haven’t actually gone down at all.
The tool crashes through the window instead, awakening Celebrimbor to the sounds of war and chaos beyond.
With the illusion broken, he sees now that all of Eregion is in shambles, his workshop included.
No wonder thenine kings of Men turn into Nazgul,if their rings were forged with Sauron’s blood.
He finally makes his way to the ramparts and finds Mirdania.
Annatar quietly tells Celebrimbor that if he finishes the Nine, then he will leave Eregion alone.
“Destroy it!”
His forces pull up short, andElrond ventures into the camp to negotiate.

Adar agrees, saying he’ll arrive with Galadriel’s head on a pike.
Have I spent too much time thinking about it?
Durin’s speech rouses the Dwarves to action, and they agree to march with him to Eregion.

Cloaked like an Orc, Galadriel sneaks through the camp, largely undetected.
While Adar leads funeral rites for their fallen brothers, Galadriel slips away at last.
Galadriel promises that he’ll get his chance to fight Adar later and that he is needed elsewhere.
So, if you think about it, Annatar is the real victim here.
Celebrimbor confesses what he’s done, forging the Nine to enslave Men to Sauron’s will.
But I guess we’ll see how this lands next week.
