Zortagra was a series of worked tunnels in the Underdark approximately ten hours travel from the Waydown River. The tunnel leading to Zortagra ended at a 40-foot-tall statue of a bulette bursting out of the stone it was carved from. Its eyes and jaws are closed. In its right claw hangs a huge bronze gong. The mouth of the stone bulette was the entrance way, and the eyes were windows for the guards. This svirfneblin community had been overtaken in by Duergars. In 1493 DR, the Duergars had become insane and the community was unable to care for itself. During a personal expedition, the members of the Hawthorne Guild Oberyn, Izzet, Lei Feng and Swolic Ironside freed the deep gnomes who were stuck inside and killed the mad Duergars. They also killed their Duergar leader who called herself Deep Duerra and who believed she was an avatar of that Duergar goddess.
