The spell didn't fail; everybody on the physical plane had their memory of
the city erased. The spell to remove the city was designed to leave a few
obscure clues behind so that Parlainth could be returned after the Scourge.
When the spell was cast, Horrors had already infiltrated the city. The
Horrors were unable to leave the city because of the powerful magic.
Needless to say, they weren't happy about this, and spent the next four to
five hundred years extending the torment of the people trapped in the city
with them. When the city was returned, it was devastated, with nothing but
Horrors, undead, and falsemen (basically golems) inhabiting it.
Geographically speaking, Parlainth is most likely located just north of
Sverdlosk in central Russia -- just in case you were interested in bringing
it into your SR game.
