I can’t get over the fact that Celebrimbor never stood a chance. If he had not let Halbrand in, he would have changed form and come back. I truly think that Sauron could have easily done that, but preferred to keep the face as Celebrimbor already knew and trusted him.
And that’s it.
He hasn’t stood a chance since Halbrand first met him, he’s the tragedy that haunts the narrative in the doors of Moria, in all the rings, as even the One was done as a mockery of the art of Celebrimbor himself. Of the good intentions he had. The hope.
There is no version of this in which he makes it because he is a tool to Sauron’s plans, just another tool to craft the rings.
And all else he is, passionate and hopeful and Smart and clever, the compassion and love and kindness? That all gets lost. And that’s the tragedy.
#in the silm he gives Galadriel a brooch#the one that Aragorn is named after much later#it is to help her sea longing and he makes it because he loves her#yes he loves her romantically in one version but the main part for me is#that they remained so close#and he crafted her something to help out of love#the love of Celebrimbor is something so special to me#just#so much COMPASSION#and yes he is driven and ambitious and all I know#but that makes sense because is basically peerless#trop spoilers#trop season 2#celebrimbor#annatar#the rings of power#trip season 2 spoilers
