The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power Season 3 is a new beginning for the Prime Video series, kicking the story off five years after where things ended in Season 2, and streamlining the overall narrative into a more cohesive war story.
Season 3 refocuses The Rings of Power on its simple yet compelling good vs. evil premise, jettisoning some past characters and subplots while ensuring the ones remaining all align with the same goal: you exist to either defeat Sauron or to serve him.
Celebrimbor’s death last season means The Dark Lord (Charlie Vickers) isn’t having an easy time forging the One Ring. ) Sauron desperately wants to discover whatever secret element Celebrimbor put into the Elven rings, as the Elves have thus far been able to stave off Sauron’s army at the borders of Lindon and Rivendell while nearly everywhere else in Middle-earth has fallen. To aid him in his quest to capture the Elven rings and discern their magic, Sauron has been busy turning mortal men into Nazgûl, promising them eternal life in exchange for becoming his servants of the ring.
