About: Morgai flies   Sponge Permalink

An Entity of Type : owl:Thing, within Data Space : dbkwik.org associated with source dataset(s)

Relatives of common Horseflies, Morgai Flies were large and dun, gray, or black in color, with red eyes and a red blotch, like Sauron's Lidless Eye, on their backs. Many chroniclers believed them to be monsters of the Dark Lord's design. This might have been true of some of the larger subgroups, but those of the basic variety were simply huge, primeval vermin. Morgai Flies carried virtually all bloodborne diseases, and they played a major part in spreading the Great Plague of T.A. 1636-37.
