We don't know just how Morgoth corrupted the Elves and Men in order to transform them into Orcs, but because Orcs are corruptions of beings that have fea, it seems that they would also have fea unless that is what Morgoth took from them. (In which case it would explain why they cannot show pity.)
If an Orc is born evil, where does its fea go (provided it has a fea)? To the Halls of Mandos or out into the void with Morgoth? After all, the Orcs were not given a choice of whether or not to be good in the "time that was given them". Maybe they are cleansed in death and are allowed to "discorporate", or are destroyed by Eru that they may find peace. What do you think?
