User blog comment:ND999/Lore Hypothesis, Mt. Targon, Guardian Sea and Shadow Isles/@comment-6582248-20141116014213/@comment-6582248-20141116043439

I actually used Maokai's lore to say why the isles were destroyed and is actually confirmed by Riot that he doesn't remember nor care about his past (see here: http://forums.na.leagueoflegends.com/board/showthread.php?p=23379879#23379879)

And about the relationship between Morde and the King, is just speculation due to his lore saying that he is the first of the undead and the eastern Altar says "Free me my lord, so I may aid you", also Riot doesn't make in-game logic very well, i mean, Morde is a living armor with a giant mace, but he is a mage!

Thanks for the critic, the comment was more a general idea than a full explanation
