			In 4310, as a result of the [[Chaston's Edict\|edict]] declared by Turamzzyrian Emperor [[Chaston Kestrel\|Chaston]], much of the elven and half-elven population emigrated north and east beyond the empire's borders. The edict itself ceased to be strictly followed after Chaston's death in 4327, but fear of a recurrence drove continued migration over the following decades. Many of the fleeing elves sought refuge in Wyrdeep Forest, where they passed out of communication with the outside world for over a hundred years. Within the forest, even the elves never penetrated too deeply into the fey realm, which was filled with strange and monstrous creatures, but settled largely in the outer belt of the forest.

			About a hundred and fifty years later, the Wyrdeep elves began to furtively trade with human settlements using intermediaries. As humans could never travel far into the forest, these intermediaries were believed to be traders from the elven city-state of [[Ta'Nalfein]]. This trade continued unabated and large beneath any official notice for the next hundred and fifty years. While the Wyrdeep was formally within the borders of the Barony of Bourth, the forbidding nature of the forest made it all but impossible for the local human lords to enforce their laws within it.

			In 4599, a tax collector sent by the minor lord [[Gallard Wilke]] to one of the outlying elven settlements was slain by the elves. Lord Gallard responded by sending his garrison to raze the settlement. As nearby elves rose up to fight the human forces, Lord Gallard appealed to Emperor Krellove, who sent reinforcements from Tamzyrr. These events led to the [[First Turamzzyrian-Nalfein War]]. While the larger war concluded in a limited human victory, the effort to enforce claims over the Wyrdeep never made very much headway and was again abandoned after the death of Krellove. Lord Gallard built the fort of [[Gallardshold]] on the edge of the forest to keep watch during the war, but the elves were not seen for several hundred years afterwards.

			Around 5030, a younger generation of Wyrdeep elves began to emerge from the forest, where they formed a cautious relationship with the humans of Bourth, now ruled by the [[Caulfield]] family. Some even opened shops in cooperation with the local humans, in defiance of Chaston's edict that was still officially in effect after seven hundred years, even if it was ignored by the Caulfields. Tensions between supporters and opponents of the edict led to a number of street brawls in Gallardshold over the years.

			Under Emperor Aurmont, the edict against elven ownership of land was repealed in 5122, and in the following year during a visit to Ta'Nalfein the emperor formally recognized the status of the Wyrdeep elves as an independent and sovereign nation, its borders defined by the Kannara River to the south and west, the Barony of [[Dragach]] to the north, [[South Hendor]] to the west, and [[Highmount]] to the east.
