Annatar introducing himself to Celebrimbor in 2x02:

[superloves4]

This was supposed to have a snippier introduction but in the spirit of not ruining the fun for those that enjoy it, here’s a harmless shitposting before season 2 proves me wrong: The Ring of Powers show exists in an universe where the kinslayings never happened

Hear me out, Galadriel’s introduction implies the elves came to Beleriand in boats, that could only happen if either Fëanor returned the boats or the Teleri lended the boats

Why the second and not Fefe returning the boats after kinslaying? Because eight-pointed stars everywhere!!! Because Galadriel doesn’t hesitate to threaten blood for boats, even full of despair Galadriel would not bear with turning into Fëanor!!! Thus the only possible explanation is Teleri lended the boats and the first kinslaying never happened

That certainly helps, but what about the Lùthien situation? What about the oath?

Well, my explanation is that The Oath never happened, there was An oath, but it was a generic “let’s go take the baddies” and Finrod swore it too (not Galadriel tho because it’s still an oath from Fefe and she’ll not have that)

And Lùthien? Well, in the tree statue of Lùthien she has a cloak with an eight pointed star, in the version where Celegorm is king in Nargothrond he let’s Lùthien leave and gives her back her cloak but here he also gives her a broach so it may close easily

And Dior? And Elwing, after all she has to have her whole fall into water turn into bird thing?

I mean, Thingol is getting murked by dwarves either way and Dior is very easy prey so *shrugs*

As for Elwing, there is a version of events where it’s Morgoth attacking Sirion and Maedhros and Maglor are actually there helping! So kidnap fam but it’s wholesome from the beginning

After all, Celebrimbor saying (to Elrond!!!) that the Silmarils required sacrifice only gets a turn around rather than a very big “what the fuck man??”

So with no oath, no attack to Eonwe’s camp

This explains why there is a lost silmaril as opposed to the well known fire, air, water situation (what happened to the third? Maybe it’s with the Valar, maybe it’s with M&M in Valinor, maybe Eonwe is bad at holding silmarils and it fell in the ocean on the way back)

Shouldn’t there be more people alive then?

Nope, the fun is that with more people fighting we could just say more people died! The battle Celeborn disappears at could be the Nirnaeth!

Conclusion: No kinslaying in ROP
