RELATED: The Rings of Power Season 1 Episode 1 Recap, Theories, and Thoughts These four formed the core group (as far as I could tell), while other side characters popped in on occasion to drop important bits of exposition. We met Galadriel, a young She-Elf seeking revenge for her brother’s death Elrond, an elf with an affinity for politics Nori, a Harfoot who yearns for adventure and Arondir, a bad ass warrior dealing with love issues. Most of the intro spent time, well, introducing us to this strange new world, its characters and the dangers lurking just out of sight. To recap, I liked the first episode of Amazon’s billion-dollar show. Or maybe it just means a few of our characters are stuck on a boat. We’re back with another episode of The Rings of Power, this one titled “Adrift,” which could mean any number of things.
