Nûrad

Nûrad is a somewhat rich, warm, hilly land located east of the northern tip of the Ered Harmal. Mordor and wide Khand Gap lie to the west. The Talathrant rises here. The Nen Nûrad is said to be the birthplace of the great river.

Given its wealth of freshwater and exceptionally strategic location, Nûrad is considered a prized territory. Its fierce, Nûradja-speaking residents are constantly threatened and often find themselves under the yoke of the brutal Variags or their more numerous Chey neighbors.
