Lore
The easternmost region of Moria is also the most ancient. Called Nud-melek by the Dwarves, this is the Khâzad-dûm of old, the halls first dug out of the mountain by the Dwarves of the First Age. Now it stands cracked and damaged, having weathered fierce battles and fell beasts, including the dreaded Balrog known as Durin's Bane. Yet still it stands proud and glorious, looming high and beautiful inside the mountain, seemingly ready to endure another age’s worth of wear and war thanks to the mighty craftsmanship of ancient Dwarf-smiths.
Knowing from the earliest days that the wealth and grandeur of Khâzad-dûm would attract pillagers and enemies of all sorts, Durin’s folk built the halls just inside the East-gate for defense. A deep gash in the earth crosses this region, and the ancient Dwarves, treating that chasm as a kind of natural moat, erected a defensible course across that gap: the Bridge of Khazad-dûm.
