TheRingsofPower's Season 1 finale finally reveals who the Dark Lord Sauron has been this whole time.

Editor's Note: The following contains major spoilers for Episodes 1-8 of The Rings of Power.After weeks of speculation, with multiple potential characters up for the role of Sauron, The Rings of Power finally revealed who the Dark Lord is, and it might have surprised some, but if you've been keeping an ear to the ground it shouldn't come as too much of a surprise.

There Is No King of the Southlands Unfortunately, it seems the records in Númenor are incomplete, and when Galadriel has someone dive into the history of the Southlands in Eregion she realizes the truth. There is no king of the Southlands, at least not anymore. The line died out many years ago, with no heirs in place. When she confronts Halbrand about this, he plays off of their previous conversations.

The illusion changes again and this time we're back on the raft in the Sundering Sea. Halbrand informs Galadriel that when Morgoth was defeated, it was as if "a great, clenched fist had released its grasp from my neck." He says that after his defeat, he felt the light of The One again. In seeking forgiveness, he wanted to heal the damage he has done to Middle-earth.
