   For whatever reason, most people in Dragaera don't
seem to have ever gone to or be at all familiar with
any other places on their planet.  They've never
traveled to the East or been beyond it, never crossed
the sea, have no idea what other continents there are.
 It seems that since they know of the Greater Sea and
can study it, take purple stones from its shore and
compare it to the Lesser SEa it's almost certainly
attached to their continent or an island offshore. 
Since the Great Sea is presumably where the Jenoine
were based and performed their experiments on the
natives and others it's pretty likely it would be near
where these experiments live or came to live when they
escaped.

   Well, I have no idea.
