00:00Three, two, one, action.
00:07Please, tell me the rings.
00:10Didn't they work?
00:13They worked wonders.
00:21There is a very famous ring in Germanic and Norse mythology,
00:26a ring of invisibility,
00:28which is used, obviously, for terribly covetous purposes.
00:32And that is, I think, the prime source of Tolkien's inspiration for the rings.
00:39This notion that the ring is a miniature metaphor for the earth,
00:43it's round, it's circular, it has no beginning, no ending,
00:46encompasses everything, including power.
00:48And it seems that that was a logical extension
00:53of all of this lore that Tolkien so loved so deeply.
01:00Season two holds a big story.
01:03I'm looking forward to pouring some of that molten ore.
01:06Right-handed or left-handed? Right.
01:08Okay, great. The elves are ambidextrous.
01:10You can do everything.
01:12The crafting of the rings is such a core part of the lore.
01:16I'm hugely excited for that.
01:18The rings have been forged.
01:20Gradua's about to get her own ring.
01:23To actually engage with them and ask those questions,
01:26what do they mean, what do they do, what does it do to other people,
01:29is a creative journey.
01:33What is it? Is it Elrond?
01:36Some sort of invitation from Lord Celebrimbor.
01:47We're creating the rings.
01:49The rings of power, the seven, that's given to the Twelfth Lords.
01:53It's exciting to see what effects the creation of these rings will have on us.
01:59Seven rings, and one within each power.
02:03I also feel this instinct that something's not quite right.
02:07These rings start to work on the subconscious,
02:10ultimately for evil rather than good.
02:14I know where it's going. For those that don't, I won't ruin it,
02:16but I know where it's going.
02:19It's a very exciting, dark journey to embark on.
02:23I know you believe this ring is deceiving me,
02:26but I believe it is guiding me.
