Sauron in the Third Age | Tolkien Explained

Today, we explore all of Sauron's actions and travels during the Third Age! We will cover his multiple trips to the East and Dol Guldur, how his presence brings out evil across the map, his physical form during the War of the Ring, and his strategy during the War of the Ring. After his defeat at the hands of the Last Alliance of Elves and Men, Sauron goes into hiding, growing his strength and using all his cunning to craft a plan for vengeance. Using his magic, his servants, and his newly found palantir, he will attempt to bend all of Middle-earth to his will.
