Dark Lord finished.

Trying to make digital art again. I used some references to make a concept based on the Spoilers for the second season of Rings of Power. I didn't want a look that was too aggressive or reminiscent of PJ's Sauron.

I still have a long learning journey. And some projects related to the series.

Can't stop thinking about the fact that, initially, it was supposed to be Two Rings to rule them all instead of One🥹

Galadriel - Sauron’s lifeline to light

Yeah this is probably completely obvious to all Saurondriel shippers out there but.. I was re-watching the season and them feels caught up with me again on how in the beginning Sauron!Halbrand feels that there is no one who can help him, not even this tiny elf he gets thrown together with.

In episode 2 we have this moment:

“Look, elf. You didn’t cause my suffering and you can’t fix it.”  “No matter how strong your will. Or your pride.”

And if we skip to the episode 6, when Galadriel bids Sauron!Halbrand to be free of whatever Adar did to him, and whatever evil he himself has done, he has changed his tune already:

“I never thought I could be. Until today.” “Fighting at your side I..  I felt... If I could just hold onto that feeling, keep it with me always, bind it to my very being, then I..”

Of course the moment gets interrupted after Galadriel confesses that she feels it too.

But buddy, pal, Galadriel may not have caused your suffering but you sure sound like you’re changed your mind on Galadriel not being able to fix your suffering.

And then the last episode, of course he even readily says so:

“And I knew if ever I was to be forgiven... That I had to heal everything that I helped ruin.”

And when Galadriel claims that as her king he would be the Dark Lord? His response is:

“Not dark. Not with you at my side.” “You bind me to the light. And I bind you to power”

“Together we can save this Middle-earth.”

Now I’m a simple gal.  I just love how Sauron!Halbrand gets to see Galadriel for who she is, see how his first impression of her was wrong. Just love seeing him be affected by their relationship and how he grows to realize that having her in his life makes him strive to be better than he has been.

That’s what his confession in episode six is all about. I never thought I could be free of this burden (of my suffering). Until I met you, who believes in me, believes that I can do good. And he thinks that if he can just keep feel that, believe in that, then he really can achieve what he set out to do. 

He can be what Galadriel sees him as. He can be worthy of forgiveness and be capable of good things, manage to set things right, bring order and heal what he helped destroy. With Galadriel at his side, he can be tied to light and goodness. She can connect him to it. She is his tether to it. She helps him understand what is the right path, the good option. His own mind is too corrupted to not see it without aid.

Of course Galadriel herself is not one dimensional, is not simply good. She’s more complex than that. And that part of her, he feels, is the part that can understand him. Can forgive him, because he thinks she understands him. It’s not just her being good. It’s her being a better person than him but yet not so pure that she cannot understand his darkness.

So I just.. Have a lot of emotions about this. It just gets me. But who know what’ll happen after this? Maybe the next season will tell us that this was all fake, he was lying, that Sauron was just trying to persuade and corrupt Galadriel. No clue, it’s Sauron after all.

But to me, these moments felt sincere, these confessions felt like the truth.

And they will stick as my headcanon no matter what direction the show goes in (which will not be a happy ending for any saurondriel shippers given we know where they end up)

Regardless of what lies in the future, at least we’ll always have this, the first season where there were possibilities, where redemption and the good ending still seemed achievable.

  and ofc we’ll also have our headcanons and our AU fix-it fics. You can try to pry those from my cold dead hands, not before.

He saw a fine ass elf woman hunting him for centuries across the known world, fuelled by nothing but rage so palpable she would forego elf heaven to murder him and was like “you know what ima disguise myself as a human and take this opportunity to shoot my shot”. That’s it. That’s the storyline.

Sauron - Bejeweled - @glorf1ndel - Prompts

Best believe I'm still bejeweled When I walk in the room I can still make the whole place shimmer What's a girl gonna do? A diamond's gotta shine They ask, "Do you have a man?" I can still say, "I don't remember"

You may need to zoom in to read the text!

That's it. I'm done for the night. Sauron is in love with Galadriel. And obviously wants her by his side for all eternity. TAKE ME TO MY GRAVE. I AM READY.

My reinterpretation of the concept art for episode 8 of RoP. I would like to give credit to the original artist for the excellent work.

I have been awake since before the breaking of the first silence. 

im still obsessed with this scene

The whole Numenor street fight scene is absolutely hilarious in retrospect🤣

You can practically SEE the steam coming out of his ears when that ugly smith calls him "lowman", saying that Galadriel would prefer "someone of better breed". Some smith. Calling Sauron. A Maia. "lowman".🤣🤣🤣

But he reins it in and manipulates them all because he needs the smith badge. Half an hour later he is already loved by everyone in that market square🤣

But then the smiths discover he napped the badge, and when that same ugly smith punches him in the face - he S.N.A.P.S
