Galadriel's swan boats, carvings on trees, and the meteor man. We break down all the Easter eggs you might have missed in TheRingsOfPower Episode 1.
Editor's note: The below article contains spoilers for The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power Episode 1 and Middle-earth Lore.The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power has been one of the most anticipated TV series ever since it was first announced in 2017, with false trails and wild theories abounding concerning its nature and content. After all the anticipation, audiences finally had the chance to go back to Middle-earth when the first two episodes of the series dropped on September 1.
A glorious shot of the Two Trees of Valinor follows, combined with Galadriel’s comment that the world was once so young that there had not yet been a sunrise. The time referenced is that of the Years of the Trees, where the natural light of the world came not from the sun or moon, but two great trees planted by the angelic Valar in Valinor. One tree shone with golden light, and was called Telperion, the other shone silver and was named Laurelin.
A quick glimpse of an armada of ships follows as the elves set out for Middle-earth, but the ships themselves reference a deadly backstory: the Noldor following Fëanor had no ships to return to Middle-earth, so they tried to take them from another group of seafaring elves, the Teleri. When the Teleri refused to give them the ships, the Noldor attacked them and stole their ships. This came to be known as the First Kinslaying. Yes, there were sequels.
The episode also shows Galadriel picking through the aftermath of battle, placing a helm on a great pile as some sort of memorial to the fallen. While this doesn’t exactly echo the source material, it does bring to mind the Hill of the Slain, which was a result of the fifth great battle with Morgoth, the Nirnaeth Arnoediad . The slain elves and their allies were piled together in a great heap, which was the only place in the whole wasteland where grass came to grow afterward.
The Story in Tirharad Is Original But Makes Many References to Tolkien's World Building While most of what goes on in Tirharad is new material created for the show, there are still a couple of call outs to material from Tolkien’s larger legendarium in the storyline of Bronwyn , Theo , and Arondir .
