Megond was a large semi-fertile valley in the southwest of Mordor, fed by the waters of the river Gurthrant, which flowed into the Núrnen Sea. The northern portion of the valley is rocky and dry, but the southern part (which contained the Gurthrant river) was fertile and produced a hard grain used to feed the great beasts of Mordor (such as those used to draft Grond). The valley was inhabited by men from Harad during wartime, and also many Mumakil were kept here.
