History
| This is the Elder Prince's island all right. We had a heck of a time pacifying the Drakes who live here. Oh my, it looks like they've rearmed! |

Morogor was a volcanic island in the Great Ocean, lying to the east of the Green Isle and to the west of the Great Continent.[1] Also nearer to its east was a naga-controlled archipelago.[2] The island itself was slowly sinking into the sea. Prior to being discovered by humans, it was inhabited by a number of hostile drakes. During a voyage east to the Great Continent with Lady Jessene, the First Crown Prince of Southbay discovered the island, and was forced to pacify the drakes before continuing on his journey. After the prince left, however, the drakes rearmed themselves.[1]
Despite the prince's death,[3] Jessene remembered how to reach the island. She helped Prince Haldric and the Green Isle's human refugees reach the drake island, believing it to be suitable for re-provisioning their ships on their journey to the Great Continent.[4] Despite Haldric's attempts at diplomacy, the drakes attacked the refugees. Haldric slew their leaders, Kegrid, Gerrick, and Merkush, after which the drake warriors relented. Before re-provisioning their ships and leaving, Jessene reasoned that the drakes would likely continue guarding Morogor until the island sunk too low.[1]
