Det var väldigt länge sedan TheOneRing.net var en omistlig sida, men det här var faktiskt en riktigt bra artikel, tyckte jag. Det är en av deras mer pålästa medarbetare som spekulerar kring vad TV-serien, eller åtminstone dess första säsonger, kan komma att handla om, utifrån det lilla som avslöjades i PR-puffen som släpptes nyligen (som TORn kallade för en "synopsis"

). Låter både trovärdigt och lovande!

Thus, a starting point for the series could be during the lifetime of Tar-Aldarion. It’s a time of change in both Numenor and Middle-earth that might allow one to cover:
* Numenor’s rise as a power in Middle-earth (SA725 and on)
* The establishment of the Noldorin realm of Eregion (SA750 and on)
* Sauron’s gradual emergence and recognition as the new Dark Lord (SA500 to SA1500)
* Sauron’s concurrent seduction of Celebrimbor and the other elvish smiths of Eregion, and the forging of the Rings of Power (SA1200 to SA1600)
* The invasion and destruction of Eregion (SA1695 to SA1697)
* The arrival of Numenor’s fleet, which destroys Sauron’s forces and expels him from Eriador (SA1700 to SA1701)
Yes, that is a lot to cover.
Such a story would draw its primary narrative basis from two parts of Unfinished Tales. The first: Aldarion and Erendis: The Mariner’s Wife. The second: the text “Concerning Galadriel and Celeborn” that is part of The History of Galadriel and Celeborn. The story of Aldarion and Erendis has the strong emotional pull of personal stakes, while Galadriel and Celeborn brings in characters who are already familiar and have broad appeal to many who have only watched Peter Jackson’s films.
