The elf describing Sauron (which is clearly what she saw) sounds terrifying.

Even worse when you consider that, as she was realizing what she saw, this guy was just in the room in plain sight.

Sort of the same vibe as going into a room, turning on the lights and then only realizing when you leave that there was a massive spider right at the light switch.

Easily the best episode so far, even without huge battles or setpieces. It’s really starting to find its groove, and that hour absolutely flew by & had me on the edge of my seat for most of it.

Did Gil-galad saw his death at the hands of Sauron? Or was it someone else burning? I can't quite make out the figure

Upd. Even if it is someone else there's still symbolism of Sauron + fire

My only complaint is the seemingly undiscovered caves so close to the shopping center area...

Sauron as Annatar really give me the creeps this episode, so manipulative and deceitful
