Naturally, we’ll be getting intospoilers fromThe Rings of Power season 2 episode 6as we discuss what it teases, so make sure you’re up to date on the fantasy show. The new trailer, which you can watch onPrime Videoas it’s not yet been widely released, begins where we left off, withAdar’s Orcs approaching Eregion.

However, it’s not on the battlefield that the most brutal conflict is taking place, it’s inside the forge. “True creation requires sacrifice,“Annatartells Celebrimbor, who seems to be losing his grip on reality. Later on,Saurontells him that if he finishes “the nine” he will spare his city, seemingly no longer hiding his true identity.

Elsewhere, Adar’s Orcs clash with Elrond’s Elves on the outskirts of Eregion. “You cannot defeat me in battle,” he tells the Elven commander, “my forces outfight yours.” It won’t stop him trying though, as the trailer teases some epic action thatthe showrunners have teased took a year of planning to execute.

Some major reunions also take place in the penultimate episode, including between old friends Elrond and Prince Durin. “I need your axe old friend,” he tells him. That’s not the only shot of old friends uniting either as Galadriel and Celebrimbor embrace in another scene. She tells the smith, “I won’t let you face him alone.”
