Moriach

Moriach is a term with no widely recognized meaning in major reference works. It is encountered only sporadically, usually as a proper noun within fictional or speculative contexts. Because there is no canonical definition, the exact sense of moriach depends entirely on its source.

Etymology and origins: There is no established etymology for moriach. In works of fantasy or constructed languages, it may be invented to evoke a particular phonetic or stylistic effect. Outside fiction, it can arise as a misspelling or variant of other terms, such as Moria or Moriarty; in those cases, any implied meaning traces to the source text rather than the word itself.

Usage and clarification: If you come across moriach, locate the primary material to determine whether it denotes a place, a character, a faction, or something else within that work. Cross-referencing spelling variants can help prevent confusion.
