The series focuses on important moments from the Second Age, starting during a period of relative calm as evil forces begin to grow in power. Viewers will witness the dramatic events that unfold, including the rise and fall of the island kingdom of Númenor and the last alliance between elves and men. Together, they must confront the army of the Dark Lord Sauron, who seeks to dominate Middle-earth using the powerful Rings of Power.
