I kinda suddenly want to write a short story about a post-LOTR community of orcs. Just surviving perhaps through transhumant goat herding in the Ephel Duath mountains, occasionally trading w/ the people repopulating Ithilien, facing hostility, but just trying to live a life.

I have such interesting questions about that society. Would it remember Sauron as some kind of god? Or perhaps try to improve relations with Faramir's folk by casting that as a dark period they're trying to put behind them?

I would like to think - taking LOTR as its own setting and not purely an imagined mythic past - that the scattered orcs who had once fought for Sauron and Morgoth would remember their dark masters with loathing, and possibly gradually integrate through independent cultural growt

That's my thinking. Especially with Sauron's domination and control out of the way, the orcs would be, for the first time, free to chart their own path truly unencumbered by it. What would they do with that freedom? Such a fascinating question!
