He/Him, Loves The Chargers, Tolkien, and the fantasy genre in general.
Yeah that was the one weird thing about the OG series.

And the example certain people have given me is the Annatar reveal scene, which apparently looks quite vanilla compared to a full crazy Catholic influence one. And as a former Catholic, I thought it was still a cool scene 🤷♂️

Today I went to my country's Tolkien shop!
I did not know it was 30 minutes of walking uphill... but it was worth it❤️
Looking forward to S2 @helenshang.bsky.social !

I hope Arondir gets a new costume this season as well. That’s my main hope after seeing the video.
As for who it is, Estrid is a good guess. Maybe an older Theo?
Yes. That too 😁
