Gronkkston was a city in Anthos, named after one of the most important orcs in its founding, Gronkk . Originally Kingston, it was renamed after being taken over by Orcs. The city contained some original features such as the walls and buildings, although these were largely in ruins. The Orcs, who had been living in a rapidly expanding settlement known as The Trog, decided that they needed more living space for their booming population. With the newly formed High Council, consisting of the Targoth, Yazgurtan, and Motsham, the Orcs voted to invade Kingston, the capital city of the Kingdom of Salvus.
Following the fall of the Holy Oren Empire, the Kingdom of Salvus bent the knee to the Grand Kingdom of Urguan however after the death of The Grand King Thorin Grandaxe, the Kingdom of Salvus founded itself surrounded and isolated by the Orcs without any allies to protect them. The Orcs saw the Salvians as a vulnerable target that could be easily overtaken by the force of the Krughai.
The Targoth, Pok'Ugluk, and the Yazgurtan, Grool'Gorkil, waited until the Krughai was at its strongest with large stockpiles of weapons and armor. On the 15th of the Deep Cold, 1439, the Krughai along with Dwarven allies bombarded the city of Kingston until its western walls were no more. The hordes of the Krughai, lead by the deranged Gronkk'Gronkk, charged into the city, slaughtering all who stood in front of them. Not a single casualty on the Orcish side came from the onslaught and the city was taken in less than a day.
After the sacking of Kingston, the Orcs razed the interior of the city, leaving the iconic lion as a trophy of their victory. The city had become the center of a revived Orcish culture and trade in Anthos.
Several years after the original invasion and inhabitation, the main population of the Kharajyr race established a small village outside Gronkkston, razing the farms and clearing the fields with permission from Gronkk and the Krughai council. They established the temporary home after a catastrophic volcanic eruption forced the evacuation of the sacred Karakatuan island, pushing them to the mainland.
