During the efforts of the
norse immigrants to make their new home in the middle parts of the
western side of the continent of
Sor Rusk, the initial and continued conflicts with the
Orc Tribes disillusioned many of the tribes to the ambition of southern expansion.
becoming
Vallian, some chose to continue their way south or west after the establishment of peace with the
Orc Tribes of the
Crimson Megafjord.
These daring folk would become the ancestors and precursors to the people of the
Free Crescent Cities, the
Indori, the
Azzrezza Ascendancy and the
Gaijeen Aristocracy, as well as the seafaring nations and pirate crews of the
Primitive Expanse, the peoples of
Central Terdafyne and the
Suv'Sira of
Southern Terdafyne.
Ironically, in their escape from the conflict, the
Westsailing Tribes inspired the tactic that would guarantee the victory of the
Southbound Tribes over the orcs; flank the orcs by building ships, sailing south and building fortresses behind their southernmost settlements. It led them to eventually conquer the pre-
Wild Lands Kingdoms's lands, in which many tribes settled, and allowed the vast majority of the tribes of the
Southbound to meet with the dwarven kingdoms who they would eventually go to war with.

Branching off from the more southbound tribes was the pre-
Suv'Sira progenitor tribes. They tired of the conflicts with the orcs and of the agressiveness of their fellow tribesmen, and they decided to forgo their southward ambitions to take a chance in the west. These progenitor tribes, the
Westsailing, built ships on the western coast and sailed over what would later be named
The Sharpsong Ocean and settling
Southern Terdafyne, eventually becoming the
Suv'Sira.
Branching off from these
Westsailing Tribes while at sea, a portion of tribes tired of the enormous stretch of ocean that laid before them after many weeks at sea. These progenitor tribes, the
First Southsailing Tribes, turned their ships south and east, intending to settle wherever on the shore of the landmass they had left that they reached first. Unfortunately, storms ruined their plans and navigation, sending them further west and south at sea. Still determined, they headed east but they did not reach the mainland as planned, but instead reached and settled the eastern parts of the
Crescent Peninsula, eventually, through much conflict and negotiation, becoming the
Free Crescent Cities.
Not long after the
First Southsailing Tribes has branched off, another portion of the
Westsailing did the same. These progenitor tribes, the
Second Southsailing Tribes, lost hope that the west held any land and departed southward, eventually reaching and settling the islands of the
Primitive Expanse.

After the conflicts with the dwarves and elves were over in pre-
Imperial Lands, the
Southbound Tribes left behind those that wished to settle these lands, including the
Alourian Tribe, and continued on, passing by the mountains leading to the
Crescent Peninsula and ehaded east. They eventually reached pre-
Indori lands and a few decided to settle, becoming the
Indori.
The rest continued east, wishing to see the end of this land and if even greater lands lie beyond the horizon. They passed through difficult terrain until they arrived in
Tarra Suun, and to the bewilderment of those that continued on, some tribes wished to settle here.
The rest continued on until the mountains halted them in their tracks, but they went south to go around, finding the sea instead. Not intent on stopping, they built ships from the surrounding woods and sailed along the coast and passed the
Danger World Barrier, which confused and scared the norse, as not only was the construction more massive than anything they had ever laid their eyes upon, but the ceaseless sounds of massive monstrous creatures near and far beyond the smooth grey stone terrified them. Continuing on as quickly as possible, they eventually arrived in the lands south of the
Ferian Confederacy, establishing the
Gaijeen Aristocracy once they encountered the
Dreamer's Ocean.
A few generations after their settling, the
Ferians found them and, instead of destroying them, confederated them like they have done with most of the eastern land and named them
Gaijeen, allowing them to establish their
Aristocracy.
