During the Great Rebellion, the younger dragons rebelled against the ancient dragons of old. The following 230 years was a period a great turmoil as many dragons was slain and the Dragonian Empire was fractured until almost nothing was left. Ultheera, the last of the great dragons, reclaimed Mount Calteria - ancestral home of the dragons - by slaying Bonebreaker, thus becoming the leader of the remnants of the Dragonian Empire. Ultheera formed the Kingdom of Calteria as she united the surviving dragonians under her rule.
