Sauron Rises: A Review of The Rings of Power Season 2 The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power Season 2

• Choice A: “Warn the elves – halt the forging.” → Sauron is delayed but grows suspicious.
• Choice B: “Continue forging, but add a hidden flaw.” → Future Nazgûl are weaker, but Sauron tortures Celebrimbor sooner.
• Choice C: “Embrace the vision as inevitable.” → Fast-forges the One Ring earlier, altering Season 3’s entire setup.

Verdict

3. The Dwarven Plague and the Balrog

Durin IV and Prince Durin (Owain Arthur) face a reckoning. The Seven Rings are given to the Dwarf-lords. While Dwarves are resistant to becoming wraiths (Tolkien noted the rings amplified their greed and anger), Season 2 will show the corrosive effects of these rings. Specifically, King Durin III—who possesses one of the Seven—becomes paranoid and obsessed with mithril. This greed awakens something ancient. The season will finally pay off the Season 1 tease of Durin's Bane, the Balrog, as the creature stirs in the depths of Khazad-dûm. the lord of rings the rings of power season 2
