I am curious to find out...Thanks for the write-up!<br /><br />I am curious to find out how they plan to deal with the time jump/dilation that will be required between the period of the forging of the rings of power (circa. 1300 - 1700 S.A.) and the latter events such as Nazgul being created, the division and social strife within Númenor as it becomes divided between pro-Eldar & generally anti-imperialist 'Faithful' around the Lords of Andunie (i.e. Amandil, Elendil, Isildur, Anarion) and the 'Kings Party' that illegitimately seizes the throne when Ar-Pharazon comes to power (by forcibly marrying the true heir, the young woman Tar-Miriel) and sets the stage for Sauron's takeover of the island-kingdom and its catastrophic fall in a war with the Valar (gods). <br /><br />The later stuff is surely too cinematically and thematically rich for Amazon to ignore, not least given that in culminates in the Last Alliance of Elves and Men that fans of the LoTR film trilogy will even remember and know about from the Prologue (read in the films by Galadriel). <br /><br />But the events of that second half of the narrative, take place around S.A. 3255-3319 - which means around 1,500 years in the "in-lengenadrium" chronology. <br /><br />Of course, Númenórean royals and nobility can live for up to 400 years and the Elven characters, as well as Sauron, would stay consistent.
