The Lord of the Rings Online Point of Interest

Turbine’s official The Lord of the Rings Online website has been updated with a new “Point of Interest” feature, this time exploring Angmar Moot.

In years past, when Arthedain and Cardolan strove to drive back the forces of Angmar, the Men of Rhudaur, under the leadership of an evil chieftain of the Hillmen, fell under the sway of the Witch-king of Angmar. As the years passed, the Hillmen were displaced northward by the better-trained and “civilized” Men of Angmar in preparation for a final war against the North-kingdom of Arthedain. After the defeat of the Witch-king’s forces and the near-annihilation of the Angmarim, the Hillmen in the north gradually departed from the dark path laid down for them by the Witch-king and returned to their tribal ways.
