My dear ultra-ancient sketch of Egheevin, Wond is in the eastKevekiii records tell, that in Qotawa 92 of their calendar, the Dream War has ended. That was a very important milestone, for Kvaksoi arrived and settled in Kevekiii homelands, as well as Vashnaras. Vashnaras were really just a weapon created by Qv'uaksna to aid in the war, so they didn't have much stuff to do, as soon as the war ended, they rushed out the Dream Realm and took over the lands that would be later known as Wond. Nobody was living there, and since a big war has just ended, no one really cared and let the Vashnaras do as they pleased. They didn't create any realm, there wasn't too much of them, and they can't breed, so they just lived peacefully in the bountiful land for a few Qotawaii.
Then, a certain Kevek named Unlav came with an idea: let's do a big trip to colonize new unknown lands, but let's target Wond this time, drive the Vashnaras away, and claim the land that should belong to Kevekii. Now there were many journeys like this before, each one was pretty special, and this one's little quirk was, it wasn't sanctioned by the clan leaders and the Judges. The Judges especially were a cornerstone of the Kevekiii culture and bore a great authority as well as power because of that, and you didn't want to anger them.
They might have strongly approved of the first voyages to unknown lands, as no one was supposedly living there, they didn't care about Valupak's crazy idea to find out and take what's beyond the Ykewaka territory, but they were outright outraged by this one, as they've seen it as open offense, an unnecessary conflict that can't bring anything good to the Kevekii nation.
Unlav, despite this, amassed a great number of Kevekii, particularly his fellows from the Ejiiikyvolkūāl clan, and attacked the Vashnaras, who were a powerful foe for their magical nature, but were too few to resist. Majority of them was pushed back to the Dream Realm, some were even enslaved, and the Kevekii have successfully taken over. Unlav then founded the capital city of Wond, Gsewehuk and sent his followers to spread out all across the land, he named Wond.
After the Judges heard of this, they've took the recorded pebbles and tablets bearing names of Unlav and those who followed him, and put them outside the carved cave halls of Agiii-Wuuvohuk, symbolically disowning them and rejecting them as a part of the nation. It was forbidden for any Judge to enter Wond and operate there, and a strong barrier has formed between Wond and the rest of Kevekii, alienating the new realm. Except it wasn't really a realm, for a long time.
Unlike Valupak or any prior Kevekiii hero who led their people to the unknown, Unlav didn't aspire to any kind of heights, he truly believed that the land was rightfully theirs, and after the battles just let his followers to do whatever they wanted. He did become an idolized hero to Wondokí, and they respected him as a clan leader, but he didn't ever enforce anything, and after his quest, he settled down and didn't do much.
After a few Qotawaii, the Vedavl was formed. A group of the top elite Kevekii of Wond, who bore similar renown and authority towards the common folk. As there was no unifying Judge influence in Wond, many cults and traditions were forming there instead, not only religious, but also magical - as in Wond, not only those gifted at birth were recognized as such, but a lot more "practices" has found their way in this anomaly of a nation. The Kafmaii in Wond were more occultists and alchemists than apothecaries, and it was often through these strange groups one could ascend to the circle of Vedavl. The name basically means "parts together", and their sigil signifies that. The one I've drawn is the early version, it got a bit tweaked when Vedavl established the Wondian language and alphabet, as it is based on Kevekiii letters "V" and "L". They did that in effort to get the people of Wond a bit together, and having a unified distinct language seemed like the obvious first step. Wondian language is a bit more complicated than Kevekiii Kvakeii in terms of grammar, but they are still very similar, it's basically just the Ejiiikyvolkūāliii dialect with a few tweaks.
This helped a bit to give Wondokí some unified identity, but it was not enough to form a stable realm, which Vedavl really wanted to do at this point. Around time of Unlav's death, recorded Qotawa 145, Mekawakaii started appearing in Wond. They didn't pose threat immediately, but they would soon become one, after Mek'a'-čona did a pact with Velaka Haadees and started smiting unruly nations in his name. Many Wondokí didn't care about Mek'a'-čona, Velakaii were a important part of many cults all across Wond, but they wouldn't accept authority of Haadees's pawn. So there were fights.
In those tough times, a hero named Tvepa would rise and repel Mek'a'-čona successfully. In this fight he would unite Wondokí and become the first king of Wond.
