i know that we are guessing here on the stranger but isnt it written in the books who it is ? Im not sure the rules on this site 100% so i not going to say .

if this show was named "Adventures in Faerun" it would be far better.
Than it would stand on it's own merit and not be compared to masterpiece of LotR

Sauron tried to sneakily get back to Valinor through the north, but Tulkas found him and kicked him into orbit, making him fall near Mordor and lose his memory from his head injuries.
