I loved this most recent episode! Everything with Elrond and Durin is just MWAH so good.
I’m not sure how I’m feeling about Adar. I’m pretty sure that he’s not Sauron at all, but just some elf, but then also like… why? On that storyline though, the slow-motion run through the forest was a little much. It felt so dramatic for nothing to happen. Definitely should be sped up in any eventual edit.
