#morgai

[dgorringeart]

Another quickie; Mauglurtz, that hapless Uruk, enjoys a diversion into the glens of the Morgai; nestled beneath Mordor's Ephel Duath range. This place of foul water, grasping thorns, and bloodthirsty flies seemed to me a nod to the Somme's filth and barbed wire; I brought a little of that into the thorns.

Help me out?

Hi all! 

For my sophomore health project I will be examining the coming out process for Bi and Pansexual people. I have created a google form with some basic questions about the coming out process and would highly appreciate it if any of my queer followers and friends here would be willing to share some of their experiences with me. All queer community members are welcome to share experiences however this project will specifically be examining those who identify as bi and pansexual. You can indicate on the form whether you would like me to share your answers anonymously and how you are comfortable sharing your story. I am also interested in collecting some audio recordings of stories and if you feel comfortable sharing that with me than you can also indicate that on the form or send me an ask/message.

Morgai

Morgai: A ridge of jagged hills in Mordor. It ran parallel to the Mountains of Shadow for some thirty leagues south of the Durthang Spur. Thus it was an inner fence of Sauron’s realm (as opposed to the ‘outer-fence’ of the Ephel Dúath).
