Lhunardawen has been trapped in the Barrow!
Silmaril

Intelligence is a relative characteristic. Some may see Orcs as intelligent because they are capable of speaking, understanding, remembering, and others. Probably compared to other foul races, they are. But if they are compared to the Elves or Wizards, they certainly aren't. But I am amazed at how cunning they can be in terms of war and fighting, though I am not exactly one for their violence.

Did they really lose all of their Elven characteristics as a result of Morgoth's mutilation?
