Ghorrock

⌊undefined⌋ Ghorrock is an abandoned Zarosian fortress located to the west of the Ice Plateau. Only the lower two above-ground floors, the two dungeon levels, and the exterior can currently be accessed. There is at least one more floor that cannot be reached as well as numerous doors and trapdoors that cannot be opened. The fortress is entered via arches in the southern wall.

Until the addition of The Temple at Senntisten quest, Ghorrock was believed to have been destroyed during the Third Age, like the rest of Zaros's settlements. The location at which the Ghorrock teleport leaves players, in the Frozen Waste Plateau, suggested that the fortress had been completely destroyed, with no existing remains. However, the quest revealed that Ghorrock actually still exists, albeit being further north-west than previously believed. This means that Ghorrock is the last of the Second Age Zarosian settlements still in existence. Large parts of the fortress are frozen, although the dungeon levels thaw out after the quest.

An intact statue of General Khazard is present in the fortress's courtyard. Completing a small portion of The Temple at Senntisten quest is REQUIRED to melt the "Ice Block" and enter the fortress.

Getting there
Ghorrock can only be accessed upon reaching a certain stage of The Temple at Senntisten quest.


 * Both the Ice Plateau Teleport and Ghorrock Teleport spells teleport the caster to a location that is relatively close by, although at different places.
 * There is a Wilderness Obelisk in level 44 Wilderness near the Ice Plateau. A gate in the high-level wilderness fence on the Ice Plateau allows players to easily run to the fortress from the obelisk.
 * From the Wilderness canoe station, players can either run to Ghorrock or use the nearby Wilderness Obelisk.

Monsters
Iron Dragons and Steel Dragons patrol the grounds surrounding the structure. They do not enter inside the fortress, but their long-range dragonbreath attacks can strike the player in southern part of the courtyard.

During The Temple at Senntisten the fortress's dungeon is home to a small number of Waterfiends and Icefiends as well as the Ice Demon. At this time, the dungeon is a multiway combat area. After the quest, the dungeon contains a large number of level 115 Waterfiends and level 132 Icefiends. All monsters on a level can be switched between their Waterfiend and Icefiend forms with the placement or removal of heat orbs on the pedestals on each level. After the quest, the dungeon is a single-way combat zone.
