I think there's a difference between gates to warren and gates like the one inside Dragnipur. The former are just access points that are not relevant to structure of the magic realms while the latter represent the structure and heart of said magic realms.

Silverfox thinks Azaths each represents one warren or hold (Deadhouse - Hood's Path, Finnest(means something with ice in Imass) - Omtose Phellac, Tremorlor(means something with life in Trellish - House of Life) and together they're holding hearts(outside of Kruls body that allow access to them from...outside of Kruls body) of the warrens and holds - or kind of one big common heart of all of them that is distributed piece by piece between Azaths and together forming structured Deck of Dragons of those most active of those and creating coalition that allows for very effective protection of the realms.



The gates are not only gates but also hearts of the realms and without the protection like the one that Azaths provide they're vulnerable. The difference between former and latter gates from the first paragraph is that the former provide their uses with limited rights, limited according to their skill possibly. The latter ones (hearts) provide you with administrator rights although with some restrictions still.



Thrones then are representations of the admin rights in realms.



I haven't read anything of the Khahrkanas yet and I might be completely wrong but that's kinda how I see it
