'''Mt. Oriander''' is the name a mountain found in [[Mother 3]], located north of [[Sunshine Forest]]. It is the first place visited in the game. Several [[Drago]]s can be found here, as well as some other domestic animals. However, they can only be seen before the [[Pigmask Army]] invasion. Mt. Oriander is a large region, consisting of various cliffs. Some of its areas can only be accessed using [[Duster]]'s [[Wall Staples]].

 

 

Drago Plateau is where Dragos lived peacefully prior to the Pigmask invasion. It is accessed from [[Murki Cave]] near Aeolia's house. It begins as a valley beside a river, which then leads up to the summit.

During the Prologue, [[Hinawa]], [[Lucas]] and [[Claus]] are visiting their grandfather [[Alec]] at his [[Alec's Log House|home]]. Lucas is woken up by Claus at the very start of the game to play with the Dragos outside. After play-fighting by [[Run|dashing]] into them, [[Hinawa]] calls them inside to eat their [[favorite food]]. After eating, Hinawa sends a letter to [[Flint]] saying they miss him and will be home soon.

 

While searching for his family, Flint reaches a dead end at a cliffside at the base of the mountain. [[Wess]] asks to borrow [[Boney]], tying a band to his collar and sending him to get Duster. Duster uses his Wall Staples to take Flint up further, where they find a [[Scrap of Cloth|scrap of cloth]] from Hinawa's dress. Further up, they find [[Pigmasks]] tampering with a [[Reconstructed Caribou|caribou]], which they send to attack Flint's party before running away. The Pigmasks accidentally leave a [[Pig Mark Notebook|notebook]] that contains a memo detailing their plans for the [[Chimera|Fascinating Chimera Project]].

 

Later in the chapter, before he begins his search for Claus, Flint stops by at Alec's home, where Alec joins him. He takes Flint to [[Aeolia]]'s house, who informs them that Claus is headed to the [[Drago Plateau]] to avenge his mother by killing the [[Drago]] that killed her. At the top of the Plateau, Flint defeats the [[Mecha-Drago]], but Claus is nowhere to be found.

 

Alec's house is destroyed by [[Thunder Tower|lightning]] a while after the [[Pigmask Army]] take over [[Tazmily Village]]. The Oriander Observatory is planned to be built in place of his house, and Alec is moved to the [[Old Man's Paradise]] retirement home.

 

Lucas's party must travel to Aeolia's house in order to pull Aeolia's [[Seven Needles|Needle]]. However, as Lucas arrives, Aeolia is already beginning to disappear, as the needle at [[Osohe Castle]] has already been pulled by the [[Masked Man]]. Towards the end of the chapter, Lucas travels through Mt. Oriander to reach [[Argilla Pass]].
