If this is the state of #Númenor, it is no wonder why the Valar sent us a splash of water. 🌊
Our trials are unending...
The father & son interaction goes deep!
Truly... there are no words...
Is there anything Pharazôn doesn't know?

Wrote this thread to explore the Tolkien concept of Incarnates (Mirröanwi) to possibly explain why mithril is not the solution to Elven death.

This is really just an excuse to share some summarizing thoughts before the @LOTRonPrime finale.

#TheRingsOfPower 🧵 Image
1/7. All living things in Arda are classified as either being of the Incarnates ("spirits put into flesh") or not.

Nature of ME— Incarnates include the likes of Eruhíni, Ents, Eagles, etc. Their bodies have 'souls' as Eru has endowed. Plants & most animals are not Incarnates. This painting appeared in t...
2/7. The Great Tree of Lindon isn't an Incarnate.

The Life of the Tree (being w/o a soul) is not equal to the Life of the Eldar (beings w/ souls).

Yet Elves value life in all. Violence upon trees involves the death & ending of its own physical life— it grieves Elves. (NOME) Image

The Fëanorian Twins & their smart & sexy uncle... Celebrimbor.

Celebrimbor was in love with Galadriel but never told her because she chose Celeborn. It didn't stop him from making the Elessar (Elfstone) for her!

Galadriel later gifts the Elessar to Aragorn.

@chaneilduine @Bliss_Hughes Forgive me for this long response in many parts:

Augustinian indeed. In the sense that a character's choice (by their own free will) determines whether they are good or evil. 1/5
@chaneilduine @Bliss_Hughes 2/5 Take Morgoth as an example. Of his own will, he chose to stand against & apart from Eru. This stemmed from his inability to accept that his sub-creation cannot be distinct from Eru himself, bc ultimately all things come from Eru. Thus, his actions begot destruction.
@chaneilduine @Bliss_Hughes 3/5 Morgoth's greatest crime was attempting to bend the wills of Eru's children thru corrupting Elves to create Orcs. Interfering with another being's free will is the greatest no-no because the ability to choose determines whether you are good or evil.

S1.E7 Breakdown of #TheRingsOfPower 🧵

Galadriel's eyes have opened to a new reality: Udûn ("Hell"). A "red" horse races past her revealing the aftermath of an apocalypse.

#TheOneRingQuisition
AFTERMATH

1. Four LED lighting tubes were strapped to a horse running at Galadriel. Flames were added in post-VFX.

Flames on structures, floating cinders, and swirling ash were also added in post. Wet paper was used for ash on set. twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
2. Galadriel finds an unscathed Theo. Isildur and Míriel rescue Valandil.

Míriel is hurt by flaming embers while rescuing survivors. Isildur sacrifices himself to save his Queen before the structure collapses on him. twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image

S1.E6 Breakdown of #TheRingsOfPower 🧵

This episode was very explosive. Not much #Tolkien to breakdown but very fun all the same.

Theory: This is Sauron's gauntlet. Adar claimed it as a trophy.

#TheOneRingQuisition Image
NEW LIFE

Adar plants some alfirin seeds and says a prayer before battle.

Quenya: `Vinya coivië... na vírië...`
English: "New awakening... To life..."
1. `My children, we have endured much...`

Adar's plans laid bare:

S1.E4— `That [the Southlanders] may live if [they] forsake all claim to these lands and swear fealty to him.`

S1.E5— `And soon [the sun] will be gone. And with it, the part of me that knew its warmth as well.` Image

S1.E5 Breakdown of #TheRingsOfPower 🧵

Nori (Markella Kavenagh) and The Stranger (Daniel Weyman) are eating walnuts on a plateau in Central Otago, South Island, NZ.

#TheOneRingQuisition Image
LOST

1. `Perils`

Nori first taught the Stranger to speak using sign language (E2).

Weeks later he speaks in the same dialect as Nori. Not surprising as he patterns his speech after her. He's also learning new words & with that a sense of right vs wrong as Nori sees it.

(1/4)
(2/4)

Nori's explanation of perils and death pushes the Stranger to consider that he has the capacity to cause death (`fireflies` in S1.E2).

He recognizes that death (or destruction) is not a desirable outcome. Image
