History

Odíhg Kiklasot is still bloodied by a recent violent conflict. A crushing bandit raid, a lost siege, getting caught at the periphery of a major battle, or some other calamity has inflicted severe damage on the place. Some communities may suffer a longer-term version of this, their youths lost in a grinding, endless battle against some perpetual threat.

In time immemorial, reportedly some time during the early 2nd century the Kami ended a drought plaguing Odíhg Kiklasot. One of Odíhg Kiklasot's local festivals commemorates this miracle.
