Second thoughts about Ostogalore (just figured it out):

Thanks to a video where a guy faints as Ostogalore is killed, you can see that the ominous sky in base camp clears out and reveals big rivers and a verdant plain/forest, the entrance to the Dragon Graveyard being a huge hole in the harmony of the landscape.

My thoughts are that Osutogalore is an amphibious creature that lurks outside in the rivers through the waterways in the cave in search for preys. It then devours them and brings back the bones to its lair, the Dragon Graveyard, where it piles them up into huge stacks. From the size of the stacks, you can suppose it has huge appetite and may go hunting for long periods of time. I don't know about MHX's story but i suppose the quest is an urgent quest because the Elder Dragon has been seen coming back from hunting after many years and its presence affects the region. I think the cave itself isn't natural: Ostogalore may have dug it the same way it destroys it, with a powerful dragon blast. The shockwave, or repeated use of this may explain why the sky have had gone so dark in the surroundings. (How that i don't know, let's say 'tis the mystery around Dragon Element.) If i may theorize further, i think there are actually several "Dragon Graveyards", each one scattered far away from the others, and that Ostogalore travels periodically between its lairs, changing it when the prey begin to lack in the region it's installed in. That could also explain the absence of the creature for long periods of time. (However that, as i said, i don't really know IF Ostogalore is coming back according to the story.) Yeah. Octopi and other cephalopods have a habit of fitting into any orefice they can find, so it's making sense here. Oliver's no different, we're seeing him fit into skeletons of other monsters.
