In the mid–14th century, Elminster Aumar travelled to the isle of Moray. Here, he and King Dagdar successfully hunted red deer with a pack of dogs. After this, the two heard the echoing cries of the maiden of Highpeak, and the king told the sage of her legend. During his time here, he also visited Moray-town, and then left on a trader's galleon.[11]
As of the late 1400s, the southern half of the Moray was under the influence of the Black Blood tribe, a sect of the People of the Black Blood.[12]
