The purpose was to create a sister city to Menzoberranzan that was free of the direct control of House Baenre and that would provide many valuable forged goods . Additionally , the city had the potential to afford greater rights to drow males and drider s , as well as to improve access for Bregan D ' aerthe to send trade goods from the surface back to the Underdark .
