#‘did this happen?’ well broadly speaking yes but Tolkien never fleshed this part of middle-earth’s history out in much detail

So, my family is rewatching Rings of Power, and since I’m the one in the family that read The Silmarillion (like a masochist), I’m the one who keeps getting asked all the questions.
#‘did this happen?’ well broadly speaking yes but Tolkien never fleshed this part of middle-earth’s history out in much detail
#but I know exactly where they got the idea for whatever it is most of the time
#‘is Galadriel’s husband really dead’ of course not
#‘did Sauron ever go by the name Halbrand?’ well not really but also how much time do you have because this is going to take some explaining
#‘is that Gandalf?’ almost definitely but they’re doing the blue wizard thing with him by taking him to Rhun
#also I think they’re making him the basis for the hobbit’s ’man in the moon’ song so I’m honestly okay with it
#‘is the Queen lady’s nightmare significant’ Yes three times over but how am I supposed to say anything about it
#without giving away what’s probably a season finale
#‘what’s with the mithril?’ Hell if I know I’m as confused as you are about that
#actually the Galadriel’s husband one was funny
#because of course Celeborn shows up in the movies
#but my mom wasn’t sure that was actually her husband
#or some random blorbo
#or a second husband
#which then opened up the whole conversation
#to how the elves are painfully monogamous even when their spouse dies
#because they way they die is weird and also
#they all still have generational and firsthand trauma from the fallout of that one elf guy who did get remarried
#rings of power spoilers
