Fans of The Lord of the Rings are always excited to see how the stories come to life in different formats. The Rings of Power, the big Amazon series, takes the story and does some incredible work in adding a whole new perspective!
A Hint Of What's To Come:
While The Rings of Power, season two has just finished showing its amazing storyline. This wasn't the end, and there were big clues that point to season three. What made season two so epic? It gave us more insight into the dwarves' rings! More specifically, a powerful, historic ring known as Angya!
You might remember that Durin III, the owner of Angya, had a showdown with the big Balrog. The showdown resulted in the loss of Durin III, leaving behind a void, full of interesting consequences!
Angya's Fate:
There's a powerful history to this ring! From the appendices in J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings books, we can see how this legendary ring was handed down. Angya has a special legacy!
- It's a legendary item belonging to the Durin lineage!
- It keeps passing down to each generation!
- It ends up in the hands of Durin VI and goes to Thráin II
- The story continues as this amazing piece gets taken by the vicious Azog the Defiler. (you might know this if you watched Peter Jackson's The Hobbit!).
Even with a detailed storyline from Tolkien we still don't know how this ring's story evolves. So, in The Rings of Power, season two's conclusion we get a clear hint!
When Angya shows up as a prominent symbol, and that suggests this particular dwarf will get his hands on the ring in season three!
Durin IV And His Father's Ring:
If you were hoping there were more exciting moments with these dwarves and their adventures! There might be one! That special meeting included Prince Durin IV, Princess Disa and Narvi. Durin IV takes center stage as he ponders a new and even more difficult situation: leading his people into the future!
- The dwarves will have new challenges including facing Sauron. The upcoming war will bring major conflicts
- What about those six rings. These legendary pieces must be divided!
- It also brings conflict, especially as his brother hopes to claim the throne!
All of those issues lead some people to think that Durin IV will indeed have Angya! What was also worth thinking about from Tolkien's text is that the rings never could take hold and gain full control. The dwarves had the ability to control this special item! That meant these greedy individuals always looked for more treasure and more wealth! Even with Durin VI keeping this up to the end. This could be another hint that we will get an even bigger adventure that gives an intense, deep look at Durin IV.
Why Durin IV Might Wear The Ring:
For fans hoping Durin IV uses Angya! You will probably not be disappointed! There are so many issues that really create pressure. The coming conflict with Sauron's new orcish army means resources will be essential, making Angya, a powerful asset to hold!
- In Tolkien's texts. Khazad-dûm remains in its place, for a while, in this fight against Sauron. Angya's potential helps support the Khazad-dûm people.
- Durin IV must decide whether to continue this legacy by honoring his father's plans, or doing something bold. To really help people the six rings to distribute.
- What if Durin IV holds his ground to claim Angya. It may just allow him to stay strong and keep his people safe.
In a truly amazing perspective for many, Durin IV may face conflict with his brother hoping for a bigger opportunity to take control of Khazad-dûm. To show off Durin IV will likely utilize Angya.
Durin IV's Impact On Middle-earth:
While this might bring about the end to Khazad-dûm's history there's not a total picture yet. This is all unknown because Tolkien's work doesn't tell us about Angya for a while!
The newest story on Amazon adds in this part of the mythology and makes this special for fans! This will create some major changes in the world of Middle-earth!
With Angya and a strong, well-meaning dwarf using this great item, there might be some problems! The use of Angya might increase Durin IV's greed and eventually result in the end of Khazad-dûm. If there's anything to know from the texts of Tolkien the Rings could not have the control it may desire!
The whole story makes it compelling and is likely the heart of what audiences are going to find fascinating for this season! Durin IV's adventure.
The decision is an essential piece for those who will tune in for The Rings of Power's season three. This special, iconic season is likely going to give more interesting information about this storyline and just why this dwarf and ring might lead the show to have major changes, especially for how these characters shape this great tale.
