The likely reason there were so many people at Forelhost is because it was the last known stronghold of the dragon cultists. It is believed that all the other priests had been killed during or shortly after the Dragon War. I'll make a thread about this, rather than just posting on here, but I think that Nahkriin may have been the highest ranking Dragon Priest. After all, the Dragon Priests served Alduin, and Nahkriin was the priest guarding his portal to Sovngarde. And I would think that Alduin would choose his highest ranking or most trusted priest to guard an important portal like that, right?
