The year is -7977. A group of explorers known as Heyton's Expedition set sail from their homeland in search of new lands to settle. They are led by the charismatic and ambitious Heyton, a skilled warrior and leader. The group is composed of skilled craftsmen, farmers, and warriors, all of whom are eager to start a new life in a new land.   After many weeks at sea, the expedition finally arrives at Outding Refuge. The island is small and isolated, but it is also lush and green. The explorers are immediately struck by the beauty of the island, and they are eager to explore it.   They land on the island's coast and begin to build a small village. They clear the land for farming, and they build homes and workshops. The settlers quickly adapt to life on the island, and they soon begin to thrive.   However, the explorers are not the first people to live on Outding Refuge. The island was once home to a native cannibal culture. The natives fought the neighboring island of Sahuagin, and they also gave sacrifices of blood, gold, gems, and other treasures to a large white dragon that lived in the sole mountain on the island.   The dragon has long since gone to sleep, but its presence is still felt on the island. The explorers are aware of the dragon's legend, and they are cautious not to disturb its slumber.   The Heytons soon come into conflict with the cannibals. The cannibals are hostile to the settlers, and they attack them on several occasions. The settlers are forced to defend themselves, and they eventually defeat the cannibals.   The victory over the cannibals marks a turning point for the Heytons. They are now the dominant force on the island, and they are free to build their new home.   The Heytons eventually learn to coexist with the native people. The two groups trade with each other, and they eventually become allies. The Heytons also learn to respect the dragon, and they come to see it as a protector of the island.   The Heytons and their descendants live on Outding Refuge for many years. They build a thriving community, and they make the island their home.
