    When men thought they could become divine, the divine power had to remind them they were mere mortals.

      The Human Physical Body is indeed Mortal. But the Human Soul is Immortal. If the Human Soul CAN BE PURIFIED from DESIRE then it will return to being The Divine.

      Ironically, that may have also been the worst way to die. The peak of the mountain would be a small yet barren island, and no sign of rescue in sight given that the Faithful Numenoreans would have already been long gone. So she'd die a slow death of starvation.

      @@Gala-yp8nx Firstly, that mountain is dedicated to Eru Ilúvatar alone. Secondly, the Valar had absolutely no authority or intrinsic responsibility toward humans, unlike the Elves. Thirdly, the Valar are not to be worshipped or supplicated because they are not gods. There is only one God in Tolkien’s universe, and He is Eru Ilúvatar-the one whom the Númenoreans disrespected and disobeyed by allowing Sauron to corrupt their hearts and minds.

      @@anti-liberalismo They most certainly weren’t supposed to. That deviation is almost exclusively made by Mankind, as Tolkien made clear in one of his letters (if I’m not mistaken). Men have often wrongly taken the Valar as gods and goddesses and worshiped them instead of Eru. You see, humanity in Tolkien’s world enjoys a special and unique relationship with Eru, their Creator. He favored them above much of what He created, making them essentially for Himself, unlike the Elves, for example, who are under the authority of the Valar. This idea is not surprising, as it is found in the sacred scriptures of the Abrahamic religions (i.e., the Bible and the Quran), aside from the fact that Tolkien was Catholic.

      It was actually the opposite because the Valar and Eru never helped men but would wage war for elves and allow them to live with them. It was so easy for Sauron to turn the Numenoreans against the Valar because they neglected men

    As great as this scene is, I don't think they should have had it in season 1. They should have established Numenor for a few seasons so its eventual fall hits harder, instead of showing it off the bat. This is why the Gollum flashback worked so good in Return of the King. We established a relationship with Gollum for a whole movie, which made seeing him pre monster so impactful.

    • @FreejackVesa
      @FreejackVesa 7 месяцев назад +7

      They couldn't really follow the story of Numenor as Tolkien had written it, so they basically got rid of Numenor as quickly as possible. They only have the rights to LOTR and its appendices. If they were to follow the Akalabeth they would have been sued. I personally can't stand RoP, I think it's a cash grab that runs roughshod over the existing lore. Just my personal opinion

    My biggest gripe was why Sauron didn't turn into a vampire and fly away before Numenor became flooded. Was he unfortunate to be on the coast or the port when it happened, or was he in complete shock that Eru Illuvatar himself took action and froze in horror? The truth is that Sauron just laughed at Numenor's downfall and chilled in his temple without any thought of escaping. This is kind of weird for a fallen maiar and dark lord who has valued self-preservation ever since he begged for his life when Huan defeated him.
