It is supposed to be that these creatures have lain in the dark for so long that they have gone kind of crazy and will attack anything from the upper world. Having lived so long without Morgoth they would also maybe have forgotten their true allegiance and maybe be unable to recognise other forces of evil.

(The "gameplay" reason is so all players can have the same experience in Utumno regardless of how they play up above)
