Background info: The Wovilithkirvelszen, a giant word meaning “Demonbinders” (Wovilith = noun: demon, kir = verb: bind, vel = nomilnalizer so kirvel = “that which/who bind(s)”, szen = plural), have invaded the desert gnolls called the Ighe, beginning a war between the two groups, with the Wovilithkirvelszen enslaving and recruiting the central Ighe. The “current date” for the whole of the fantasy world is 3644 EF and the following starts over 3,000 years earlier at 491 EF…
Ighe-Wovilithkirvelszen War (Ighe – Wovilithkirvelszen, Ighe) 491 EF – (end of war not yet determined)
491 EF As the central Ighe align themselves with the Demonplague, the Wovilithkirvelszen build the fortification of Setnusath Nar, “Desert’s Edge,” (present day ruins of Vrokotlar) at the northern edge of the Ishurezrit on the Dilgoraux Tul Soch which causes the northern tribes to unite against them, starting the Ighe-Wovilithkirvelszen War.
492 EF The Wovilithkirvelszen begin a massive campaign against the Ighe gnolls in the northern Ishurezrit desert. While several large bands of warriors stay to fight against the Demonplague, most of the northern tribes escape east into the Krishdra Napalnaul and head south into the Biniwasan Gudatlag Nikwa where their presence strains the emerging Ighe city-states of Urtirgrenit, “Walled-camp,” (present day ruins of Frembekiwa) and Shauda (present day ruins of Shedabekiwa).
493 EF The Wovilithkirvelszen eradicate the remaining northern Ighe gnoll opposition and build the fortifications of Lurst Mauladhemethru, “Keep Greenfields,” (present day ruins of Klutekikor) on the Dilgoraux Tul Soch (the course of the river having since changed) and Vuz Ulshav, “Fort Black-fly,” (present day ruins of Olnagur) on the Filitiv Dhauln (the course of the river having since changed).
496 EF With the help of their Ighe gnoll enslaved allies, the Wovilithkirvelszen push further east into the Ishurezrit desert, forcing ever more tribes to retreat to the city-state settlements of Urtirgrenit, “Walled-camp,” (present day ruins of Frembekiwa) and Shauda (present day ruins of Shedabekiwa). Urtirgrenit and Shauda become excessively militant, conscripting all able bodied adults into militias while their gnoll-shaman leaders begin summoning elementals and demons to fight against the encroaching Wovilithkirvelszen. The Demonplague build the fortifications of Waulkos (present day ruins of Eretkekrog) on the north-eastern edge of the Ishurezrit desert and Maulakhros (present day ruins of Okranodludnaul) on the Dilgoraux Tul River (which as since changed course).
498 EF Pushing the last of the Ighe gnolls out of the Ishurezrit desert, the Wovilithkirvelszen build the fortification of Lurst Zamred (present day ruins of Demkutgol) on the western Agbithko River on the eastern edge of the Ishurezrit desert.

And while the Wovilithkirvelszen will obliterate nearly all of the Ighe by 516 EF, here is their total expansion by 540 EF…
(where the dark shaded areas are the Wovilithkirvelszen incursion, the orange are gnolls, the purple [in the south] are the giants, the pink are minotaurs, the magenta are ogres, and the red [north-east and south-east corners] are orcs).
