spoiler alert elron and gadriel set off foran in the rings of power season 2 episode 4 and the conclusion of eldest compels gadriel to leave their company in order to take on adar's Army Of Orcs gadriel may have made a selfless sacrifice by doing this but elron points out an intriguing aspect of her choice she is not coming back to save the other elves he informs them gadriel offers elron her ring of power but elron thinks she is more concerned with keeping it safe than fighting the Army Of Orcs gadriel defends herself against the Orcs Who attack her with remarkable bravery regardless of her true motivations although they would be happy to murder her their Master seems to have other ideas for the heroine of the Rings of Power gadriel reunites with a Dar the antagonist of the Rings of power following her fall from her horse gadriel almost shoots AAR with a Blazing Arrow but a Dar looks happy to see her he tells her a star sh on the hour of our meeting while viewers may find this confusing the rings of power season 2 implies an alliance between the two characters someone Awakening evil welcome to movie Spy teases for the rings of power season 2 episode 4's conclusion Adar and gadriel collaborating the teaser for the Amazon series confirms it will happen at the end of the Rings of power season 2 episode 4 the eles think gadriel is giving up her life but the conclusion of the episode points in a different direction for her adar's welcome is not quite as hostile as you might expect especially considering what happened during their first encounter in season one of the Rings of power although gadriel is unlikely to warm up to the villain immediately he nevertheless makes a nice approach additionally we may infer from the second season teaser of the Rings of power that the two will join forces the meeting between Adar and gadriel and is the first step in this direction but gadriel may need some time to warm up to this Alliance Adar informs gadriel that their shared enemy is revealed in the teaser for the rings of power season 2 perhaps gadriel will give in ador's plea out of her desperate attempt to make up for her faults with saurin this would be the second time a villain from The Lord of the Rings uses galadriel's objectives to manipulate her it seems certain that gadriel and Adar will work together in the upcoming episodes as the teaser also features footage of them standing in front of an army galadriel's decision to work with a Dar will be her second grave error in the rings of power the first was to trust sorin and his Rings galadriel's alliance with Adar will probably be her second grave error in the rings of power of course the first is succumbing to sain's trickery in the first season of the Rings of power gadriel is too eager to put her trust in how brand and in the second installment she keeps giving in to his manipulation gadriel is adamant that how brand used the three rings he makes with cber even though she knows he is saign it is rather clear from the series that these rings are already warping her and the other El's perceptions Adar may have a similar enemy to gadriel but that does not remove the fact that he is a villain with self-serving goals the conclusion of rings of power season 1 is more than sufficient evidence that Adar is not to be trusted gadriel and her people might suffer if they collaborate with him unless she has a secret agenda the demands of the Orcs will come first for ad and any partnership's immediate benefits probably will not outweigh the long-term cost of advancing adar's objectives you swear allegiance to Adar Lord father of the UR galadriel's trust in Adar the origin story of the Rings of power the antagonist was an elf as well before morgoth found him gadriel is willing to cooperate with Adar despite the fact that he does not look trustworthy in the rings of power season 2 this is explained by his past cadriel might have a kindred connection with ad Dar because he was once an elf himself if nothing else she most likely understands his situation Adar only turns into an orc instead of an elf because of morgoth's suffering Adar also has the physical characteristics of an elf in contrast to the other Orcs in season 2 of the Rings of power this reminds us of his beginnings and emphasizes the parallels between him and Galadriel and Adar and Galadriel have more than simp simply saurin as an opponent gadriel lost her brother to sain's Old Master much as Adar did at the hands of morgoth the two are not just connected by their shared Elven ancestry they have also endured suffering and loss as a result of morgoth's rule during the first age though it appears clear that their cooperation will end there this Common Ground may be part of the reason they are eager to face s together how Adar and gadriel are being manipulated by saurin in the rings of power season 2 the vill from The Lord of the Rings is influencing them virtually since saurin is a skilled manipulator in gor toan's novels it seems sense that he uses the rings of power season 2 to subjugate a number of characters gadriel is clearly under the villain's influence from the start of this adventure even before he makes the Rings how bran worms his way into galadriel's Thoughts by winning her trust in the rings of power season 1 the treachery hurts gadriel so much that she is determined to make amends and the high King is unsure if she handle him alone this has a direct bearing on her choice to work with a Dar naturally elron already knows that saurin is using galadriel's ring of power to control her gadriel makes decisions based on the ring and elron does not trust her judgment even though she seems to be aware of its influence she will not quit wearing it in spite of this or even give her life to keep it intact however it appears from her Visions throughout the first three episodes of the Rings of power season 2 that saurin has the ability to control control her thoughts even when she is not around this is concerning since it might work against her later on in the series Adar is more subtly manipulated by saurin and it is unclear what exactly he has in store for the elf the first season of the Rings of power made clear that the two antagonists were at War the reason saurin appears in adar's Camp in the rings of power season 2 episode 1 dressed as how brand is probably due to their strained relationship he is playing with a dar's mind by telling him that saurin is alive though it is unclear for what reason saurin probably does not want Adar in the Southlands the very region of Middle Earth he plans to conquer given that ador's Union with gadriel allows him to eliminate two of his adversaries with one stroke saurin might even applaud the alliance they may perhaps demolish one another sparing siren the headache of opposing them in the rings of power season 2 the characters are actively aiding the enemy who has always had the upper hand in Middle Earth history thanks to this kind of trickery thanks for watching go back to the shadow
