Traitor's Gate

The Traitor's Gate was an oddly-named inner city gate that separated eastern and western parts of the Dock District in Phlan.

Location
The Traitor's Gate was separated from the Parkside Gate by the Valhegen Park, erected after the city of Old Phlan was rebuilt in the early-to-mid 14 century DR. The Traitor's Gate stood on the southern side of the park, while the Parkside Gate was on the northern end.

History
After the city of Phlan was liberated from its monstrous invaders, ruled by the Possessing Spirit in the, the old gate was given the name of the Traitor's Gate. The said traitor was infamous Porphyrys Cadorna, a disgraced First Councilman of Phlan who betrayed the trust and respect of the people of Phlan, attempting to seize control after Tyranthraxus' defeat. Instead, he became the vessel for the dreaded Possessing Spirit. With his fall, Cadorna's pacts with the Zhentarim and other malicious entities became public knowledge. The Traitor's Gate was to serve as a reminder of the Cadorna family's disgrace.
