Season 2 of the fantasy series The Lord of the Rings: Rings of Power continues to air on Amazon Prime Video. Episode 6, released today on the platform, has also caused a lot of ink to flow, notably by transforming an event from J.R.R. Tolkien's lore.
Just a few weeks after the conclusion of the excellent (but also frustrating) season 2 of House of the Dragon, it is the turn of the series The Lord of the Rings: Rings of Power to reunite fantasy fans. The mission is all the more delicate for the Prime Video series as it has the mission of reassuring fans disappointed by the pace and writing problems of the first season that was not enough to make us forget its sumptuous production design.Following in the footsteps of the first season 1, this new batch of episodes continues to divide the public, between those who hate it in particular for its changes to Tolkienian lore and those who love it and defend it, among whom we find some videographers renowned for their love of fantasy, including Captain Popcorn and Presséa.
Moreover, it is a safe bet that episode 6 of season 2 of the Rings of Power will continue to divide the public, especially readers of the Silmarillion. Indeed,In a conversation between Galadriel and Adar, we learn that the crown with which the corrupted Elf killed Sauron in the first episode of the season turns out to be the one worn by Morgoth in the First Age, on which were hung the Silmarils he had stolen. Adar explains that Sauron reforged his master's crown before making it his own.
However, in The Silmarillion, Morgoth's crown has another fate… Indeed, after the War of the Great Wrath, which marked the end of the wars of Beleriand and the decisive victory of the Valar over Morgoth, the First Dark Lord asks forgiveness from the Valar and Eru Ilevatar before having his feet cut off; his crown is transformed into a necklace and the one who was called Melkor before being renamed by Féanor is pushed through the Gate of Night. In other words, it is impossible for Sauron to be in possession of Morgoth's crown.
And you, what do you think of this change compared to the lore of J.R.R. Tolkien's work? Don't hesitate to tell us in the comments section. If you liked this article, we encourage you to discover our point on orc women.
