==== Elven Refugees and Settlements ====
The Shatlo elves came in large numbers to Aikthudr'zhur. Being driven out their homeland of the Oshombran Peninsula in present day [[Cryria]] by Taragai and Talveri pressure and influence. They named the land they settled to "The Eastern Places" or Aikthudr'zhur and established settlements across the region often near or close to kemonomimi and lutryne villages.
The Shatlo settlements was different from the native groups, using brick and stone structures more often than the traditional wooden buildings. According to available records, artifacts and artworks from the period. The Shatlo elves didn't allow other species to settle within their settlements, but was willing to trade with them. Additionally the Shatlo elves refusal or disinterest in conversion to [[Akuanism]] and hierarchical structure caused tensions between the natives and Shatlo to rise.
==== Rise of Tensions Between Species ====
Shatlo and the other native groups had risen to a boiling point. The lutryne and kemonomimi shunned the Shatlo elves and refused their access to the riverways. The intermixing of trade routes, riverways and passages being blocked off to the Shatlo practically isolated the elven villages from one and another. Based on the written records from a kemonomimi brewmaster living in a large city next to a series of Shatlo settlements. Shatlo was greatly enraged by the shunning and blocking off of established trade routes, the two combined causing a famine to spread across the Shatlo settlements.
The 'Shatlo famine' was marked by historically high growth within the lutryne and kemonomimi settlements, with high grain yields and fishing harvests. This only drove further tensions to the point of violence and raiding the smaller, richer native settlements. The Shatlo formed raiding bands and parties to pillage the Akuan settlements, though always attempting to avoid killing the Akuanists.
Ny'Sænuri clans within the region originally tried to act as meditators between the Shatlo and native Akuanists. However when the Shatlo raids start, the Ny'Sænuri didn't hold to the same standard as the Shatlo did with avoiding to kill. The rules of the Ny'Sænuri demanded all the raiders either surrender or be put to the sword.
==== Shatlo Conversion to [[Akuanism]] ====
