The Dead Marshes is an area of swampland east of the Emyn Muil and bordered on the east by the Dagorlad plain, site of the ancient Battle of Dagorlad during the Last Alliance of Elves and Men.

Lore

The Steward of Gondor has sent Artamir, son of Ilcamir, to the Dead Marshes on a mysterious errand. Unfriendly eyes have tracked him to that vile swamp, and your quest is to hurry him on before his presence causes great mischief to another important mission…
Did Frodo and Sam come this way? After concluding Artamir’s story, players can engage in a session play experience to learn what befell the two hobbits as they crossed the Dead Marshes in the company of their treacherous guide
The Dead Marshes Session Play hints at the beginning of the Dawnless Day - which occurs a week later than the session play takes place.
  • At the beginning of the session play if one turns and looks to the sky in the South-east, the ominous clouds of the Dawnless Day are beginning to rise.
The Dead Marshes are closer to Mordor than is Gondor, and north of both, hence the necessity to look to the south and the East. (See the maps for relative location information.)
