The dwarvish Arvedui Clan founded the southern realm of Khûrzhad in the year 880/2, under Clan-master Tharan the Strong.
The Saar gave this clan one of the five Val-Khûra, which they used to build the great dwarf city of Orthan Feyr and rule Khûrzhad for 1,545 years.
Sadly, the dwarven civilization of Khûrzhad was lost in the year 884/3 during the Great Rift; when their magnificent city of Orthan Feyr was completely consumed by the waters of the Sea of Ralas after a terrible earthquake. The twelfth and final ruler of Khûrzhad was King Thorabard; the 'Drowned-King.'
