Gil-galad: don't mess with this shit

*They do and end up creating the rings and helping Sauron*

Durin III: don't mess with this shit

*They do and end up awakening a Balrog and helping Sauron*

Tar Palantir: don't mess with this shit

*They do and end up playing Sauron's game*

Rings of Power summary: old kings were right. Youngsters should have listened more carefully to them.

Rings of Power episode 3

The 3º ep is so good omg!! I can’t believe I watched Númenor in live action! It looks so good and the theme is amazing!

ELENDIL IS HOT AF! I would scream his name every chance I had, Aragorn uwu

Watching Elendil and Isildur interact made me a little emotional, knowing how they end :'). They also name dropped Anarion, he exists too!!

GALADRIEL ALSO NAME DROPPED FINARFIN AAAAAAAA

Apparently Tar-Palantir is still alive?!?! and is locked up?? bestie I will get you out hold on T-T

The Orcs scenes are so damn good! The Orcs look really really nice and they didn’t forget that the sun hurts Orcs! Those scenes are pretty sad too tho .-.

Some changes in the timeline, like at this time with Pharazon & Miriel, Numenor should be CHAOS and with Sauron already there. The relationship between Pharazon & Miriel should be different too. Like Miriel acts like a King’s Men lmao, maybe she is just pretending?? We’ll see, I can overlook all that for now.

And it came to pass that Tar-Palantir grew weary of grief and died.

Rings of Power Analysis Part #5

Back to this format cause aesthetics

Durins 4 and 3 Vs Míriel and Palantir

Both are sets containing a ruler and an adult child. In both cases the ruler has access to mystical knowledge beyond the reach of most people ( the collective wisdom of past dwarf kings and Palantir’s palantir).

No moms, nowhere no sir, except Durin 4’s whose memory is a stick in the fight between him and his dad and everyone gets more beat up for it.

In both cases the adult heir to the throne is being hemmed in by the actions of their father.

Because of Palantir’s reforms Míriel walks a tightrope trying to be faithful but project agreement with the majority of her people. Because Durin 3 is holding onto the status quo that has worked well for his people and allowed them to thrive, his son Durin 4 feels frustrated and unable to enact plans he feels could bring them still more success. Durin 4 walks a tightrope between loyalty to his king and loyalty to himself and his friend. Interesting differences:

The royals in our two plots are asking fundamentally different questions.

Can khazad dum advance? vs Can Númenor be saved?

Both kings seem to be landing on “no” or maybe “not like that” but in different ways and by different means.

Palantir’s last scene shows him confused but hopeful, still believing that his daughter can turn the people to the old ways and save the island. But he doesn’t think that going to middle earth will help, and he believes it will be ruinous for at least Míriel.

Míriel and Palantir are/ were partners, carrying the secret of the wave and grappling with hope and fear together as Palantir declines, leaving Míriel alone, but not by his own choice.

King Durin has presided over a time of positive and rapid change and his rejection of Durin 4’s plan is seemingly based in the belief that that can continue without the risks associated with mithril.

The Durins are increasingly adversarial as the season goes on. They have different values and can’t bridge the gap, despite love and fealty binding them. Durin 3 in a sense abandons Durin 4 but it’s a pained act, he takes no joy in it .

Thus Durin 4 like Míriel, ends the season with a future in some serious doubt.

I’ve been tracking ambition in these, and of the two, Durin 4 is more openly ambitious but it’s debatable. Miriel is queen regent, vulnerable and powerful in equal measure. she’s on the tightrope over a populist uprising that could take the line of Elros off the throne for the first time since Numenor was founded and if she fails every still living soul she’s ever known or seen or had a passing thought about prior to Galadriel’s arrival dies horribly. Durin 4’s home will at best be more awesome, if he succeeds, or at worst stagnate (as far as he knows).

Míriel has more to lose, so what she personally wants is necessarily secondary to what she feels she can do without failing at her one very difficult job.

The above makes it hard to judge coloring in the line status as well … shall we call that “lawfulness”?

What does this show have to say about the tensions between being a good king and being a good father? Palantir has, we can infer, lost the ability to see Miriel by his end, to the extent that he can’t tell it’s not miriel in the room, but he talks clearly to his heir. Durin 3 turns his back on his son after looking him in the eyes and removing the symbol of his status as heir. (god this show has stuff to say about fathers, so much, but that’s another post)

The fates of these kingdoms and of the two adult children of their once rulers will be something to watch.

Both are at the end separated from the ones who incited much of the upheaval in their lives, our final pair Elrond and Galadriel. Look for that one tomorrow, probably. Then maybe some attempt at a conclusion but the show is in its earliest days so don’t count on that, this is a time for questions more than answers I think.

Ps if Durin 4 and Miriel parallels are your thing, this may interest you

This was totally unplanned, but during Episode 8 rewatch I realised how beautiful these scenes are, so, for a change here are some stills with no Halbrand. :-)

Let’s have a moment of silence for poor Inzilbêth, who raised her first son to support the Valar and thus ALMOST saved Númenor.

Miriel’s outfit at the refugee camp after Mt. Doom’s explosion is so compelling to me. I was watching episode 7 again today and couldn’t get this image out of my head. Might make a small series of character cards?

i started a númenor-focused rings of power discord server! if you'd like to join, dm myself or @brynnmclean for an invite. we're gonna keep it private since the fandom has so many trolls, but if you're interested in rings of power's númenor plotline and/or all things akallabêth, please let us know! absolutely no book knowledge necessary, show-only fans are more than welcome.

I love the idea of Dúnedain after the fall of Númenor having visions of it. I really like the the thought that certain individuals from before and after the Downfall become linked to one another, but not in a useful way. It's clearer to the later one, to the earlier it's just vague prophecies or images. But they cannot exchange about anything useful, and more often than not the experiences are painful or traumatic to both.

#númenorians #dúnedain #just eldritch dúnedain things #maybe aragorn is linked to amandil #denethor to tar-palantir #faramir to tar-miriel #but no good can come of it #neither can save the other
