CHARLIE VICKERS and MORFYDD CLARK behind the scenes of The Rings of Power Season 2 Episode 8 "Shadow and Flame"
words cannot describe how ready i am for their toxic reunion tomorrow 🧝🏻♀️⚔️🧝🏻♂️
they literally were so perfect. the elf grief-steeped and in hunt of a violent reckoning. the god forced to kneel before malice for an age now free and worshipful before the one being in middle-earth he deems worthy of his devotion.
I'm about to overthrow my father. What've you got? — Defeat. Without your aid.
oh. my. god.
1.02 - "they say that morgoth found the silmarils so beautiful that after he had stolen them for weeks he could do nothing but stare into their depths."
1.08 - "i alone can see your light" and "you bind me to the light"
2.01 - sauron staring in awe at galadriel as if he had a revelation when he first saw her at the sea.
2.05 - "when the light caught your hair, for a moment you seemed her perfect likeness."
2.06 - sauron deceiving celebrimbor "the silmarils, they will merit little more than a whisper, but the rings of power will be deemed the most precious creations in all middle-earth. best feanor." BUT then when he is alone in his illusion, we hear a man tell a woman who looks like galadriel "i've written a poem but i fear your beauty still overshadows anything i could possibly write."
like morgoth coveted silmarils created by feanor inspired by the way the light reflected galadriel's hair, sauron will covet galadriel's light till the end of his days, attempting to recreate it but failing as nothing will ever come close to her, to that feeling he felt and wanted to bind to his very being. so sauron gropes ever to see galadriel for as long as he exists!
chills, literal chills.
Durin will come
The Rings of Power 2.07. Doomed to Die.
- i've written a poem but i fear your beauty still overshadows anything i could possibly write.
- an ocean of color, aganst which everything else feels forever thereafter -
- a dull gray.
When Morgoth was defeated, it was as if a great, clenched fist had released its grasp from my neck. And in the stillness of that first sunrise, at last, I felt the light of The One again. And I knew if ever I was to be forgiven…that I had to heal everything that I had helped ruin. CHARLIE VICKERS as Halbrand/Sauron THE RINGS OF POWER — Season 1
So I put together a compilation of all the scenes after Galadriel’s fall that seem to insinuate the wound has made it so that Sauron can now see over her and check on her? Hope someone interviewing them can ask about this.
@buffyfan145 pointed this out to me earlier and I completely shut you down, I’m sorry 😭
I don’t think he’s healing her here but certainly watching her.
The Rings of Power ∙ 2x01 || 2x06
"You will never turn me from the light, deceiver " "No, I only offer more power and praise than your light has ever given you.."
