Location: The eastern and southern regions of the land of Mordor. Pronunciation: Something close to 'noorn' Meaning: Perhaps 'Sad (Land)'

Nurn is not currently announced to be added to the game.
Notes
- ↑ This interpretation is based on 'Sad Water' as a translation for the (presumably related) name Núrnen. Alternatively, there may be a connection with the root nu-, 'below, underneath', contrasting the lowlands of Nurn with the highland region of Gorgoroth.
