Up until 11 War March 4500 DE, the area that is now called the Sands of Hell, was a verdant plain with forests and tall grasslands. Lands then contested, the Primordials called it Stafknir Hrerbjof. In a great battle to drive out the primordials, it was consumed in the dying breath of a legendary dragon named Golruwyrm. This breath, backed by the will of her father Bruh Kreniik, destroyed nearly an entire primordial army and its aces, the primordial lords Buldapulax and Kurrolath.
After the fall of Kurrolath and Buldapulax, the Xorn, a highly individualistic people, were left to find their own way on a world far from their origins. Unable to completely adapt to Bal-Kriav's energy composition, in protest their body's grew crystalline cysts. Nearly three centuries after the great Battle of Stafknir Hrerbjof, one of countless battles that made-up the Creation War (1486 DE - 8777 DE), it was discovered these cysts had the properties of deep crystals, reservoirs for psychic energy. At the time, with psychic energy of interest to both sides of the war, a primordial lord by the name of Storralk took claim of the area, tasking the Knudmid with harvesting Xorn Cysts.
In the next age, the Lith-Crillion of Sâlo Tânê 7 befriended the Knudmid. The latter were so impressed with their new friends, some say by magical influence and decades of indoctrination, that the Lith-Crillion were seen as "gods among mere mortals". The Knudmid built great edifices for them, the largest being the Pyramids of Life in the far east.
Around 1000 LE the Knudmid began to lose faith in their "gods". Legendary locust plagues, increasing sand worm attacks, and alluvial storms were taking a heavy toll. A decade after giving up on the Lith-Crillion, in 1011 LE, the Knudmid suffered the Stone Curse, a civilization ending event. Today, travelers of this desert sometimes encounter life-like statues of the Knudmid. Victims of the Stone Curse, some decorate the grand chambers of faraway castles and palaces, while tens of thousands lie buried in the sands.
Bordered by four regions, the Sands of Hells is a hot and often windy desert. One of the more unusual currents is the Winds of Golruwyrm. Beyond the hazards of strange winds, the area's most dangerous denizens are primordial sand worms, behemoths up to twice the size of purple worms.
Near the center of the Sands of Hell is the Viiz Bo. This river, cutting north to south across a dune tossed and craggy landscape, is a major trade artery linking the northern holds of the Toomrur Hegemony and those far south in Ag Envok and beyond.
