History
The deserts of Marquet are the remains of a once-lush landscape housing a prominent civilization during the Age of Arcanum that ended in terrible internal conflict during the Calamity.

Before maturing into an ancient dragon, Thordak tyrannically lorded over half of Marquet for centuries from his base in the Scaldwind Sands. That came to an end after he and his armies attacked the rising city of Ank'Harel and Thordak was gravely wounded such that he fell into the ocean and ended up on the Island of Viscan.
