Terntolgalan was the name bestowed upon the Scaled Isles, an archipelago made up of dozens of islands. It was the home of the Dragonborn race in the time before the cataclysm.
The name is derived from the Draconic word "ternocka," meaning "guardian," and "tolgalen," meaning "home" or "ancestral land." It is the center of the dragonborn's power and authority, and where they guard their heritage and culture. Known the world over as a place that is protected, guarded, and safe for all.
