Over the mountains... in a valley where the trees are evil and corrupted, filled with old ruins... next to the marshes... spider-shadows... it is all clearly a reference to the Misty Mountains, Mirkwood, Long Marshes, and the spiders of Dol Guldur. I would like to add Mewlips, but I just don't think it would be in the spirit of the actual mewlip poem. Similarly, I sometimes regret actually adding Harad and Rhun.

I did actually start drawing a Mewlip biome in Rhun once a long time ago but then I realised this and stopped doing it.

And if they were ever added, they probably wouldn't be an actual faction, just mindless scary monsters like the Barrow Wights. Maybe they could be like a Dol guldur version of the Snaga.
