Yes but the elves freed from Angbad by the Valar were cured and no longer enslaved. So why shouldnt they be able to be able to be cured to?

Utumno was said to be destroyed in the books but not all the places found and the occupants fled. When Melkor came back to Beleraind all the Beasts railled to him in Angbad. When Angbad fell they fled to the corners of the Earth and to the bottom of the world. I do not understand why there is still creatures in Utumno when there is stated no where (in books and other writings) that Utumno was occupied after the First and Second ages. Why is there occupants there in this mod? Could someone please explain this to me?

It is very likely that some occupants of Utumno stayed there. How were the orcs and the elves supposed to just walk right out of there? And since these were elves, and first orcs, they were all immortal. The elves in Angband were not enslaved for the same purpose as the ones in Utumno. In Utumno, they were twisted, corrupted, and intimidated by Melkor, while in Angband, they were just enslaved, and their purpose wasn't for breeding orcs and other foul creatures. So their minds have not been corrupted in the same way the minds of the elves from Utumno were. I hope this clears it up.
