Adar told Galadriel his plan for defeating Sauron forever during episode six of The Rings of Power season two. The Uruk leader wants to combine the strength of the three elven rings with something just as powerful.

And though all of the plots are solid, The Rings of Power is doing too much. The show has to carefully spread out time, sometimes leaving a central character out of an episode entirely and ruining the momentum.

In The Rings of Power Season 2, viewers are drawn into the intense conflict between Adar and Sauron, raising the question: why does Adar hate Sauron? While their animosity is clear, the deeper reasons for Adar’s hatred remain largely unexplored.
