Through the Ephel Dúath led the pass of '''Cirith Ungol''', guarded by th '''Tower of Cirith Ungol'''. Cirith Ungol was inhabited by the great spider Shelob. '''Minas Morgul''' was a city built in [[Ithilien]], the former [[Minas Ithil]]. It was commanded by the [[Witch-king of Angmar]], leader of the [[Nazgûl]]. Further south lay the inland '''Sea of Núrnen''' and '''Núrn''' the southern part of Mordor. This area was more fertile, in part due to the volcanic ash; it was used as farmland to feed Sauron's forces, worked by his servants and human slaves. | Through the Ephel Dúath led the pass of '''Cirith Ungol''', guarded by th '''Tower of Cirith Ungol'''.
