'We have come to find these tribes of Orc are different, and this must be based on their leaders. The Moria tribes don't have much focus on their military.

'The White Hand seem to be superior tacticians, to take over most of the Redhorn Lodes. They are pushing the Moria tribe out of Redhorn surprisingly fast. The White Hand's leader must be a brilliant tactical mind.'
The Orc leaders are located somewhere within their tribe's encampment.
Knakk is located on the elevated platform just north of the White Hand Orcs' encampment, on the road toward the Grand Stair.
