Qazog

Qazog is a prairie of ice grass that was claimed by the horde races of Abderron who left Garnax to seek a shore that could be their own. They claimed the land and either folded the farmers of Kirinzdok who lived there at the time into their new country, or drove them back into Kirinzdok proper. The emperor of Kirinzdok at the time didn't see fit to push back given all that the world, and the Garnaxians had been through at the time. Qazog formed with the full permission of Kirinzdok and an alliance between the two naturally formed at that time.
