Following the defeat of Morgoth in the War of Wrath to the host of Valinor, many of the Great Enemy's servants and lieutenants were able to escape the destruction, including many dragons, at least one Balrog, and his right-hand Man Sauron (also known as Gorthaur the Cruel, at that time!).

He is one of the most mysterious characters in both books and movies, he has little dialogue and has a lot of influence. Thank you for your nice explanation

Sauron is so much more complex a character than people give him credit for.

It's been really great seeing your subscriber count steadily growing! We've come a long way from a few dozen viewers watching the Silmarillion read-alongs!

Cowardice on Sauron's part, and stupidity on Eonwe's part. Sauron was hoping for a slap on the wrist and Eonwe was too stupid to grasp that Sauron was hoping for a punishment-free forgiveness. So when Eonwe told Sauron to report to Valinor for judgment by Manwe, Sauron fled in the opposite direction and Eonwe was too lazy to chase him down. Really, Eru's biggest mistake was even allowing the Ainur to enter into Arda. Or at least He ought to have pulled them back out again once they'd finished setting up the world. That ought to have included Melkor and Mairon.

Gandalf talked about the power of Saruman's voice but clearly Sauron's was much more powerful.

Simple answer: Just hear the Blind Guardian "Nightfall in Middle-Earth" Album. Intro Song does the job :')

IIRC Sauron wasn't captured then. He alluded them both times Morgoth was indeed captured. Sauron suddenly appeared before Eonwe by choice trying to broker a deal. He didn't even attempt to actually capture Sauron right then which goes to show the Valar and Maiar fallibility and ignorance. When he couldn't get a plea deal he missed his court date and a warrant was issued... Sorta

@duyguovunchacihamdioglu1692 Год назад

Had Sauron continued to live in the second age in hiding and not doing evil, there would be no one to punish him for his previous evil deeds. Did ambition or ability to wield power hold him back from such an option? Or did he need a motivating purpose in order to live once he had eternal life? Meanwhile, I do not understand why Eonwe left the matter of trial and pardon to Sauron's discretion; this seems like favoritism, just because they were created in the same nature?

Rings of Power? Uuuhhhhhh.....better to stay away from this disaster

@ultron374 Год назад

I agree, maybe one day a good director , something on scale with P. Jackson will film Silmarilion, the story of Sauron

I like the things you say, but I hate the pompous accent you use while you say them. It really turns me off from these videos, videos/streams in which you speak normally are much better.
