In turn the relationship between the hill dwarves and the peoples of Erilyn has traditionally been a close one. When Erilyn stood strong against the crushing hand of [[Milara]], the dwarves of the hill clans supported their neighbors even when the other races in the area bowed to the dark elf and his new order on Rilara. It was unfortunate that the battle of the [[Plains of the Slain]] saw the [[death]] of more than two thirds of the clan warriors at the hands of Milara's minions. | In turn the relationship between the hill dwarves and the peoples of Erilyn has traditionally been a close one.

Starting in the mid 800s, the countryside began to be plagued by creatures that the locals called demons. Rumors abounded that the dwarves in their mining had ventured too deep into the earth and had let loose creatures upon the settlements.
