Order 3C

When the tragarans arrived in Brucrumus they knew nothing of the interior.  In time, they got reports of ancient ruins in nearly every direction, and of places with old empires dating as far back as the Horgon Era.    One of the more intriguing empires they learned of was Garmomuk.   

Widow of Modrerthim

Ermikel the Balance went and lived at Broken Teeth for a little more than a year. At this capital city of the gnolls, he  gathered history of the region's civilizations.  When he returned to the distance shores of Hells Womb, he began writing the history.  Some, not knowing his credibility, laughed at his talk of a civilization of gnolls.   As a result, he waited ten years to submit this history to the public, because by that time adventurers and explorers were returning from the Northern Hordelands with tales of great monuments and a sophistication among the gnolls they thought was impossible.

A period of enlightenment was started in this wild region with the Drugnod family.  This family did not get lucky and sire a line of great leaders that led the Drugnod Empire to greatness, no they were helped by someone very cunning and with the patience of centuries for plan to reach fruition.   The Drugnods, led by their venerated shamans were enticed to enter into a dark pact with the abyssal lord Demogorgon.  This  deal was the Drugnod Pact.  It required a certain sacrifice, that wasn't to be felt for several centuries.

The Drugnod Pact led to a dynastic line of rulers.  The male emperor, usually chosen for obedience or influence was married to a Drugnod daughter - one "blessed" by the unholy pact with Demogorgon.  Behind close doors, the emperor was referred to derogatorily as a "breeder", because the real power behind the throne was the Drugnod Empress.

One of the greatest policies of the Drugnod was Order 3C.  This mandated an end to the nomadic ways of the region's tribes.  As a result of this government policy the people experienced stability, population growth,  and the beginning of an allegiance to something bigger than the tribe and thoughts on when they were leaving for the next hunting ground.

The Drugnod Empire began to wane when the cities grew distant from the affairs of the countryside.  This led to the Hlothangi Insurgency.  During this civil war, Demogorgon returned to collect his end of the Drugnod Pact.  The Drugnods and many other elites of society ended up being charmed, abducted, or dispatched  by vampire cultists of the Widows of Modrerthim.

The gnoll period of civilization did not end with the Drugnod.  A half year after their fall, the territorial councilors that had once served their Empress went on to form the republic of Yagamph.
