and utterly not following canon at all, it's fine. But I just don't understand why it's not following canon. Sauron as a disguised teacher and emissary of the Valor is pretty interesting stuff. I don't understand the point of the Adar storyline and the absolute lameness of the High King of the Noldor. Again. I'll keep watching Rings of Power, but it's just not faithful at all to the canon. If Bezos was so bent on putting the stories to visual adaptation, why hire writers who jettison almost everything that's there?
