The hills of Hergu'loon were named for an army wiped out here in the Hoof Front (215 GE - 230 GE). The Hergu'loon Army under a kobold mercenary general named Kurtulmak retreated to these hills after being ambushed by Covenant forces. Kurtulmak, then under the command of Orcus, was in a bad position, with the Covenant holding ground to the north and forces of Tiamat, fighting her own war against the Covenant, holding the high ground of the God Rim. Herself an ex-Covenant soldier, Tiamat took advantage of Kurtulamak's weakened state, reducing his army to only dozens over the ensuing weeks.
Across the hills of Hergu'loon are the barrows of Kurtulamak's dead soldiers. For the Kobold of Sendaar Jusk and Ashmerthoon, these hills are sacred ground.
