Nameless Dungeon
In the northeastern High Forest (near Tall Trees) stands a ruin of fallen Earlann, a crypt beneath a shattered and overgrown mansion. There's also a small subterranean storage complex near the mansion (not guarded by the elves, and not connected to the mansion crypt). It's said by some to be a long-abandoned dwarven or gnome dwelling. ~ FRCS; pg 296
Until adventurers from Sundabar brought a glowing suit of mithril chain mail +4 out of the ruins of this elven citadel, the treasures of elven Earlann were believed to have disappeared with the elves. The discovery of the Nameless Dungeon has caused a furur among elves in the North. An envoy from Evermeet has gone as far as to ask High Lady Alustriel of Silverymoon to outlaw those known to have trespassed here. There is something in the ancient crypts that the elves do not want anyone to know about. ~ The Savage Frontier; pg 52 (AD&D)

The Nameless Dungeon
During the Crown Wars, the elves of Aryvandaar built a citadel known as Nar Kerymhoarth in the northeastern region of the High Forest to serve as an armory for their war magic. When the empire dissolved, the armory was abandoned.
Five thousand years ago, a group of rebellious sun elves influenced by House Dlardrageth claimed the old armor and restocked it with magic created by the elves of the ancient Vyshaantar Empire. Years later, in the closing campaigns of the Seven Citadels' War, the army of Eaerlann defeated more than two thousand fey'ri warriors of House Dlardrageth and House Vyshaan and imprisoned them in magical stasis in the belowground levels of the armory. The imprisoned fey'ri were soon forgotten by their jailors, and their prison, which was known as the Nameless Dungeon, became a place of intrigue for adventurers.
After the fall of Eaerlaan, the wood elf patrols that guarded this part of the High Forest successfully barred access to the Nameless Dungeon for a time.
