But after Lan died in the ascension wars, they were lost and roamed the land as migrate herds in the east of the Continent of Kinath. Until the land died and became a desert, then they were forced to move to the western lands. They were the man reason the beastmen were able to find their way through the Spine Ridge mountains as they we able to traverse the mountainous terrain with ease and guide the rest along the way. When they reached the west they were the first to ask for peace between them and the Elves, but were turned down. They fought with their brethren and drove away the Elves, but isolated themselves from other beastmen after they burn down the forests during the conflict. They would migrate across the land trying their place to preserve nature for the next millennia. The Beast War would see the end of that and they would be forest into the Great Forest where they would remain in small areas as they could not migrate as they would cross into other beastmen territory.
