History
Hethmora was undiscovered for much of history. Pennesios makes no mention of the island in his Voyages. It may have been visited by the Solcians, as ancient Solcian shipwrecks have been found off the island's south coast. Prior to the discovery of Dromonds' Deep, some historians speculated that the Lost Armada could have sailed to Hethmora. Solcian coins have also been found on the island, but these were probably brought by later explorers. The name Hethmora itself is a Solcian term, which the geographers Plaulian, Vicevelus, and Calanni used to refer to a distant, cold land to the north of the Empire. Although that land was presumed by later scholars to be Hethmora, it more than likely referred to Norvenia, a place definitively known to the Solcians.
A volcanic eruption in Hethmora led to a period of devastating winters that strongly affected the Solcian Empire in the mid-6th century, as well as the rest of the world.
