Lore

The great, long tunnel that connects the Redhorn Lodes to the Flaming Deeps may be the loneliest and most forlorn stretch of empty rock in Moria. Curving from the southern edge of the Redhorn Lodes to the eastern boundary of the Flaming Deeps, this tunnel’s virtually featureless run suggests that it was dug out in pursuit of precious ore, not as a planned route from one region to the other. Aside from a few left-behind crystals and essential support beams, there’s little evidence that the folk of Khazad-dûm ever traveled this stretch of bare rock without pick-axes in each hand.
