There's really no such thing as an Antirius Cult HQ with respect to the Hills of Gold. There was an Orb of the Eye there. The Dara Happans knew that many years ago their god had been killed when attempting to take the Orb. The Dara Happans preserved legends of their god's defeat for many years but it wasn't a ritual they recreated. After the Dawn, a Prince of the Ten Tests attempted the HoG quest (and seems to have been the only person to have done so sinec Antirius was killed) and succeeded. Since that time, no Antirius cultist has ever taken the quest, simply because there is no need. It's like questing for the Golden Fleece after Jason has been and gone.
