Warning: spoilers ahead for The Rings of Power episode 5The Elves should be immortal, so why are they fading away in The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power? It's no secret that J.R.R. Tolkien's Elves don't age beyond their prime years and never fall sick. Compared to the race of Men, Elves are immortal. In The Rings of Power episode 5, however, Gil-galad and Celebrimbor reveal their entire race is fading away. The decay of Lindon's trees reflects an "inner reality" which Gil-galad describes as the "light of the Eldar fading." If this blight isn't halted, Middle-earth's Elves will diminish completely, and The Rings of Power presents this fate as tantamount to dying.
