This idea is as valid as saying that the Ivar the Norse cottar from the 8th century AD never sees Finns, those strange and magical beings, because they are unimaginatively placed in the fens at the edges of the world.

Just because some Joe average peasant doesn't see the non-ordinary humans every day, or even every year, doesn't mean anything other than that Joe doesn't get around much.

Likewise, you are looking at it purely from the human point of view. I wouldn't be surprized if Uz children are warned to be good, or the fire and iron wielding hoomans will come and get them some day (as in daytime, now time off in the future). Otherwise, how often does the average Uz in Dagori Inkarth see humans?
