From the beginning of this RPG I've wondered, "Why did the orcs allow the Dwarves to live in Moria for even the small time that they did?" Here's what I figured must have happend:

1) The orcs must have been busy. With the death of a Captain and subesequent confusion, us orcs are busy.

2) They must have had a reason not to. Uzgash wonders in my post what the Dwaves are up to, and wants to keep them around untill he knows. But here's my real thought: When does The Balrog come in? That would keep the orcs busy for the four years while the Dwarves set up, and provide a reason why the orcs didn't bother the dwarves.

I'm thinking that Oro's Lugnush and Carlas's Nazklashs' journey into the depths of Moria to find Turgrog might stir up the Balrog a bit, perhaps give cause for a hasty retreat? It's just a thought, a way to tie up some loose ends.

In any case, I'll bring Uzgash back into Moria, and he'll start looking for Nazklash and Lugnush, but won't find them until I hear from you guys, Oro and Carlas.

Flames for all! ~Pyro~
