In J. R. R. Tolkien's Middle-earth, Utumno (also known as Udûn¹) is the first fortress of Melkor in the far north of Middle-earth. It was built by Melkor after his first expulsion from Arda. The Valar had by this time created the Two Lamps, and Utumno was built around Valian Year 3400 under the Ered Engrin, where the light of Iluin was very dim. Utumno was his base of operations for 1149 Valian Years, and from here he assaulted the Two Lamps, and began corrupting Arda. It was also here that the first captured Elves (Middle-earth) were dragged to, and breeding of the Orc (Middle-earth)s began. Utumno was laid waste in the Days of the Trees, Valian Year 1099, in the War that the Valar began against Melkor because of the Elves. Melkor was chained and dragged as a captive to Valinor. Melkor established a second fortress at the eastern end of the Ered Engrin, known as Angband: this was held by Sauron. ¹Udûn is also the name of a valley in northern Mordor. The word means "Hell". Middle-earth places
It is good to note that the primary fortress of Melkor, Utumno, during the Wars of the Powers was not an above ground lair as Angband would later be, but a subterraean pit delved with small maggot holes and fiery gorges. It was created by Melkor before the flight of the Valar to Valinor while they still lived in Araman; Melkor built it in hopes of seeking out unaided territory for him to ensnare. At the coming of the Elves to Middle-earth, the newly awoken Quendi noticed, far off, the great war of the powers going on at Utumno's gates. Therein Melkor fell and was brought bound to Valinor, where he was to wait for three ages before he would be set free. And so Utumno was the primary northern fortress of Morgoth. Yet the first dark lord built Angband just in case Utumno was yet again assailed.--User:69.132.15.97 00:15, 2 Jul 2004 (UTC)Sal Della Villa (2004)
