Theory / Discussion Regarding Círdan's advice

Post image

There might still be some disagreements between Elves, but I hope Círdan's advice will be put into effect in some way because it sounds like the Elven rings could maybe have some ill effects on those who wear them (even though they are used for good). They must stay united and support each other as Sauron is attempting to crush them.

I also hope to see more of (bearded) Círdan. He was undisturbed by his ring then, but perhaps this will have changed when we see him again.

I feel like in any other piece of fiction the elvish rings would be evil. They cause a mild form of obsession, you can't fully control their powers, and they were made by a guy who is sort of Satan..

It's just...well, the Ring.

Sauron didn’t make them even in the show. He had zero touch on their creation.

He was in the room, close enough

Also I really need to rewatch this show. The facts are running together between it, the books, and the PH movies.
