The corruption to the swamp by the pollution from Seregost citadel, has caused the land to turn blood red (hence how the fortress received its name). A smaller fortress containing Uruks and trolls can be found on its southern edge. The tower of Seregost itself is ruled over by Morival Queen, who used to make poisons, plagues and other concoctions used by Sauron's forces. The swamp is full of poisoned and corrupted orcs, trolls, bats, beasts, huorns, ill looking plants, and fungus corrupted from the foul run-off and pollution from the tower. On the Overlook Terrace is the entry to the Court of Seregost, the chambers of Seregost's guests and leadership. Stairs in each courtyard go to the upper level, where the Mokál Rukh Terrace looks out to the north-east and the Overlook Terrace looks over Agarnaith to the south-west. At the other end of these halls, opposite the entrances, are the Western and Eastern Terraces. However, this is only accessible during The Secrets of Seregost. In the centre is a door to the Pits of Seregost, where Lhaereth's prisoners are kept. The halls leading from these entrances have openings on either side, about halfway through, providing access to the Western and Eastern courtyards and to the centre of the fortress. And anyone approaching Seregost from the east will find two entrances at ground level, each guarded only by a pair of Uruks. The pair of Watching-stones on either side of the fortress share a mysterious bond and are no friends of Lhaereth. Anyone clever and nimble enough might find a way to climb up, though it may seem impossible to those lacking in resourcefulness. Seregost has weaknesses to exploit, however. Guarding Seregost is the lesser stronghold of Kala-gijak, held by Uruks. The mighty fortress of Seregost, citadel and headquarters of Lhaereth the Stained and her Stained Merrevail, dominates the land and blocks access to the even more deadly Mokál Rukh beyond. The Conquest of Gorgoroth will have to find another way of bypassing its sheer western walls. It divides Agarnaith proper from the Mokál Rukh, and is said to be accessible only by flight. The fortress of Seregost is found in the north-east of Agarnaith, straddling the river Chaydash. It is a tower within the corrupted swamp of Agarnaith, which lay in a valley directly east of Mount Doom, and southeast of Barad-dûr. Seregost ( Sindarin for Blood-fort) is a point of interest within Agarnaith on the Plateau of Gorgoroth. Seregost is here depicted as a snowy region and much tougher than many of the other places in Mordor, owning to the more dangerous enemies, beasts and larger outposts flanked by a large central fortress. The region known as Seregost is a playable location after conquering Nurnen in Shadow of War. It was also the first spawning-place of the Olog-hai. It was said that the Black Uruks were bred here, when Sauron first used them to assault Ithilien before the Great Years. It was a place of Dark sorcery, with molten lava covering the landscape. The region is comprised of steep mountain passes, often with sheerĭrops or curving roads, and includes several icy passages and a large frozen lake, nearby where many Frost Graugs can be found along with Caragors.Īfter the first downfall of Sauron at the end of the Second Age, the Uruks took this Fortress and inhabited it for many centuries until their master’s return. It is the location of the fortress of Khargukôr where many Black Uruks dwelt. Despite its proximity to Mount Doom, it was bitterly cold and snowbound no matter the season.
