What's your source for that, Alfirin? I can't find anything about it in UT.

Btw– you need to fix up your tags– you've got that comment inside a quote from me.

This discussion seems to be going a bit off-topic...

Anyway, I always imagined Dol Guldur being both on the surface and underground - a sort of basic fortress structure on the top, and then a much bigger and more complex set of prisons and other foul places beneath the surface. It would sort of get more evil the further down you went.

I was using my copy of The A-Z of tolkein. But based on you comments I'm putting it away as this is the second time that something it has said has lead me down the absolutely wrong road. my apologies for the tag in tag too I'n still not very good at posting and assumed it would split the quote when I posted between
