The Dheigh
“Dheigh” (sometimes transliterated as “dey” or “dhey”) is based on the Old High Orcish for “truth,” and as such might best be translated as “the true ones” or perhaps “the true orcs.” These are the orcs who have shunned the teachings of Hamur, refused to submit to the Hamurabash, and therefore eke out a marginal existence at the edge of the powerful and growing orcish empire as nomads and raiders.
