Ghor Dranas

Ghor Dranas was the capital of the Betrayer Gods' alliance and was located in Xhorhas during the Age of Arcanum. It was destroyed in the final battles of the Calamity. The city of Rosohna now stands on the same site, and as of 835 PD many people in the Dwendalian Empire still referred to Rosohna as "Ghor Dranas".

History
Founded by the Betrayer Gods after Vespin Chloras freed them from their prisons, Ghor Dranas was located on the opposite side of the world from Vasselheim, the Dawn City, in Issylra. Its name means "Gathering of Shadows" in Draconic, and the connotation of the phrase is that this is something which dragons fear. It is also tied to a threat, often attributed to Asmodeus, made at the end of the Schism: that he would, while imprisoned, gather his shadows.

The city was in constant shadow and was full of barracks and towers for war. At the center of the city sat Virkwzual ("Dark Bastion" in Infernal), the central citadel for the armies of the Betrayer Gods. Beneath the city were tunnels used as prisons and torture chambers by the followers of Torog.

The city was where many of the final battles of the Calamity took place, and it was in ruins by the time of the Divergence. Over time, the Luxon-worshiping society of drow living in the Underdark below the city emerged and built the Kryn Dynasty capital, Rosohna, where Ghor Dranas once stood.

Zerxus Ilerez had a nightmare in which he heard the name "Ghor Dranas", though he did not know what it meant. He told this name to several of his friends in the Ring of Brass at a party later that evening, and Nydas and Laerryn translated it for him. Shortly after, Patia Por'co used Detect Thoughts on a hodmedod that was behaving strangely and, while such creatures should not have been able to have sentient thoughts, she also heard the name "Ghor Dranas".
