Chapter End Notes

Like Dawn's challenge map, this is oriented with South at the top. Morgoth's throne room is at the bottom, Thangorodrim sort of mid-left and the tunnels through which the Orcs pour to battle along the outer edges, with armouries and guard chambers. The rest form the various chambers listed above, and others. Angband being on multiple intersecting levels, this is probably just one part of a many layered plan.

It's also highly likely that Sauron knew of the design and secretly approved.

This started out as a desire to create some sneaky orcish art that might have been right under the overseers' noses, and then the concept, and in-universe land art, grew and grew and spawned a wee ficlet.
