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 Northern High Pass.

The vast expanse of the Misty Mountains divides the western and eastern halves of Middle-earth, making travel and commerce between those lands difficult. The few roads across the Mountains are fraught with danger. The first is to travel all the way around the southern end of the Misty Mountains, through the Gap of Rohan, but it is rumoured that Orcs now range freely there. The second path is through the Redhorn Gate, about halfway between Rivendell and the Gap of Rohan, but the stirring of the Shadow in the East has caused even that pass to become an abode of evil.

Neighbouring the vale of Imladris is the third passage, the High Pass. This was once the most-used pass in the North, until the goblins began to stir and giants took up residence in the heights. Now travellers in the High Pass are often assailed by raiders out of Goblin-town or crushed by boulders in games of catch between giants.
