Introduction
Welcome folks, to this story about Azog the Defiler! Please note that the story is *AU* which – in this case – means that it does not follow the storylines of the canonical J.R.R. Tolkien tales NOR the Hobbit movie narrative. My story is an exploration of character rather than a 'historically correct' narrative that would fit perfectly into the Tolkien universe. To be honest, this is a most unlikely story of a most unlikely friendship/romance (don't say I haven't warned you!). But if you are up for such a ride, then I would say you have come to the right place :) The story is rated M by principle (you can read about this in my profile), and there will be plenty of graphic violence, Orcish sex and foul language. I promise!
On the characters:
I do not own any of the canonical Tolkien characters of the story, such as Elrond, Bolg and Azog himself, nor any of the canonical events that my story may refer to. The looks and personalities of Azog and Bolg are based on the characters in the Hobbit movie. Many of the other characters, such as Kasaksma, Sim and Kahrn, are, however, my own inventions, but I hold no copyright over them, as I believe they have risen from the depths of some common human subconscious.
On the language:
I use the Orcish language quite extensively throughout my story. Most of it is based on the phrasebook and dictionary of AngelFire (there should have been a link to the phrasebook here, but that is apparently impossible to make, so you will just have to google it).
I have made some additions of my own, however, to make the language more comprehensive. As far as I know, none of it – or only very little of it – is canonical. For those of you who are not native Orcish speakers, I have included translations of the words and sentences in the bottom of each chapter :)
Well, I think that was all. If you have any comments or questions, please feel free to write to me.
And now: Let the story begin!
