One by one the tribes and petty kingdoms in the area fell before him, in battle or in negotiations. Conversion to the The Church of the Trinity was a non-negotiable term of surrender or alliance.   After wandering about his new kingdom for a few years with a travelling court, he settled his capital in the northwest region of his domain and named it after himself and the nation he had created. The city of Youk still holds a celebration of him every 26th day of Olon in commemoration of his supposed birthday.

The Ostiers raised a substantial army, but were defeated by the better equiped forces commanded from Youk. It is believed by some that this first rebellion sowed the seed for the eventual seperation of the nation.   There are different theories and accounts of the driving factors of the rebellion. In Youk Kingdom it is widely held that the Ostiers were powerhungry and resentful that they were no longer permitted to worship their old gods, while in the Princeship of Lamlou it is believed that the Ostiers were reclaiming their rights to the land as the kings before the time of Youk's conquest. Regardless of the reason, the sound defeat of the Ostiers confirmed the legitimacy of Youk's line of succession.
