Area description

No race has plagued the battle for Light more than the orcs of Morgul Vale. The orcish population ever-swelling, their incredible numbers made it impossible to banish them all to their land, as was done with many other singular beings of Darkness. After a dozen years of war, it was discovered that an entity of pure darkness named Sauron led the orcs with the aid of nine minions known as Nazguls. Further research proved that this entity was very chaotic. A plan was made and executed, where a party of orcs was led into some clerics of the Dread Lord Seth. Without hesitation, the orcs slaughtered the dark priests. Lord Seth took this as a personal offense. His fury was brief but deadly as fire rained from the sky and Sauron was imprisoned in a strange, tangible darkness. The orcish population was utterly devastated and the race no longer has the numbers to wage war. The majority of orcs have sought refuge in Morgul Vale, and the races of Light have grudgingly given them ownership of this realm. Many adventurers go hunting there for sport, yet very few who enter the Vale leave with their body, or soul, intact.
