A massive mountain called Mount Agorra or the Angry Mountain for most of its existence, it now lies within the Ring of Fire on Bitu-en-Sul. It was the home of the First Dwarves and many of the dwarves of yn-Av-Agova returned to it after the sidhe exodus in 71 DB having learned many new arts.

The mountain is over 36,000 feet tall and riddled with caves both natural and hand-made. Untold millions of dwarves have lived beneath yr-Gorra throughout history. In his (probably fanciful journal Through the Fire and Back, Aevon Gazis claimed that there were dwarves living there as recently as 305 DB. That claim seems spurious on many levels. Temperatures at that latitude can reach one hundred sixty degrees at daytime and the name Aevon Gazis has been found on manuscripts claiming to be first-hand accounts of life in yn-av-Agova almost six thousand years ago. In many of these stories, Aevon claims to be a "particularly long-lived elf," but even the longest-lived elf on record died a few decades after his two thousandth birthday.
