Nud-mekhem
Type:	Gate
Region:	Azanulbizar, T.A. 2799
Location:	[67.6N, 137.4W]

Description

Nud-mekhem (Khuzdul for East-gate) is the great Eastern entrance to Khazad-dûm, and opens onto the valley of Azanulbizar from Nud-melek, the oldest halls of the ancient dwarf-realm. The old facade of the gates are still largely intact, despite the orkish scrawls overtop. Though the gate itself remains, the way to it is through the camp of Muru Azog, guarded by the most loyal of Azog's forces- and within the old halls are worse things than orcs.
