Alaron

Alaron was an island in the Moonshae Isles. Although not the largest of the Moonshae Isles, it was considered the most powerful prior to the Spellplague. In the 14 century DR, the Isles were collectively ruled from the capital city of Caer Callidyrr by High Queen Alicia Kendrick. By 1479 DR, the acting ruler of Alaron was a descendant of Alicia, Derid Kendrick.

While the capital was a port on the eastern side of Alaron, the castle from which the Kendrick family ruled was actually built by the first High King of Moonshae, Cymrych Hugh.

Alaron was House Kendrick's last bastion of a once great empire among the Isles.
