In the Demon Spawn War (8972 GE - 9493 GE), a great battle was fought here between the army of a demon lord named Aperoq and those under Chronos. One regiment-sized unit, the Vauquix, escaped the demon's crushing defeat.

After the Demon Spawn War, Imrabêl became home to Minotaur tribes. In the First Epoch, they became a formidable force, stopping commerce whenever they needed coin. At the time, the southern edge of the valley was the territory of the Khazarkar, while the northern reaches flew the banners of the Tragaran. When the Khazarkar built the settlement of Chal-Kazod, the minotaurs banded together and warred with them. The valley would see three wars over the next centuries. In the last of these, the Third Imrabêl War (412 - 414), the First Khazarkar Empire defeated and enslaved the minotaurs. Thereafter, the valley became the breadbasket of a fast growing empire with northward territorial ambitions.

In the Gulimbor Cataclysm (996 - 1203), the valley was depopulated of all humanoids, the great holds of Chal-Kazod and Athânâlo became ruins, havens for magical beasts and monsters.
