I'm telling this because I assume you have finished the game: Gortash is related to Karlach's backstory so you can get some hints from before, and Orin is related to Dark Urge's backstory so yeah, same.

See that's an issue, I didn't use karlach and I didn't play dark urge so I didn't get any of that

That's not an issue, that's an rpg: the ability to make different choices (informed and uninformed) leads to different experiences and different events each with knockon effects for thr story. It's only a problem if the game isn't clever enough to account for all of the different things you've done.

IIRC you also hear about Gortash from Councilor Florrick in the Last Light Inn. She says she's going to ask him for help against Ketheric.

I also remember reading about Gortash and Orin while rummaging through Ketheric's things in Moonrise. They definitely were not featured prominently but they were hinted at if you go looking!

You have pictures and visions of the 3 leaders from the goblins. In the ruined town and in the goblin fortress. They are hints for gortash and orin in various other places too.
