How long will that balance be kept?
Let's hope at least for some years 🤞
For now the story ends here.
Hopefully in the future and when season two will be out, I'll get inspired enough to offer more adventures for Luthien and Mairon, but the "lost wanderers" part ends here 😊
So, I hope you placed the pieces in the right place (if you have doubts or want to discuss this story, just let me know in the comments!) and guessed that Calandir is actually the future Witch King of Angmar and Khamul the Easterling King who becomes one of the Nazguls 👀
I have some ideas on how things will end for Luthien and how the story will melt with the official one.
But for now let's imagine a little happy ending for her and Mairon, leaving the Elves plotting in the dark and taking some years before breaking that balance that Mairon agreed to create.
Later, he will face the Numenor chapter.... "For Sauron himself was filled with great fear at the wrath of the Valar"
And he won't be able to appear "fair to the eyes of Men" ever again. But this will be a part of his story that won't involve Luthien 💔
And now try not to see the Sun as Sauron's eye watching over you 😂
His One Ring could have been black as his soul...so why it is golden like the sun, like the light that maybe he's craving for? 🌞
And why it looks like a wedding ring? 🤔
These questions are what helped to continue this story so far, although making Sauron be a little romantic has been quite tough 😅
Here's some random quotes from the Silmarillion.
Since I didn't add Sauron's point of view in the story, let's recall some of what Tolkien said about him.
"Seeing the desolation of the world, Sauron said in his heart that the Valar, having overthrown Morgoth, had again forgotten Middle-earth; and his pride grew apace. He looked with hatred on the Eldar, and he feared the Men of Númenor who came back at whiles in their ships to the shores of Middle-earth; but for long he dissembled his mind and concealed the dark designs that he shaped in his heart"
(I love how much his heart is mentioned here and how human he looks as he feels human emotions like pride, fear, hatred...)
"Now Sauron's lust and pride increased, until he knew no bounds, and he determined to make himself master of all things in Middle-earth, and to destroy the Elves, and to compass, if he might, the downfall of Númenor.
He brooked no freedom nor any rivalry, and he named himself Lord of the Earth. A mask he still could wear so that if he wished he might deceive the eyes of Men, seeming to them wise and fair"
Seriously, why sometimes I picture him as a scared child? 😂
Anyway, if I felt inspired to write this much is also thanks to Charlie Vickers's performance. Only he managed to make me love a villain like Sauron 🔥
And to Kaya Scodelario, such a gorgeous human being who would be perfect as an Elf princess... maybe next to her husband, who plays the High King of Elves in the show 👑 and in this case I'd love to see Sauron stealing her from him to make her his queen 😎
