Gnoll War

The Gnoll War was a major conflict that took place prior 75 years before the first war. The conflict was fought between the recently developing Kingdom of Stormwind and the native gnoll tribes. The war was the result of all Gnoll tribes united under one banner lead by the packlord Garfang, who wanted to conquer the territories from the humans after so many attempts and skirmishes on nearby caravans and settlements. The conflict resulted in Stormwind being almost destroyed and many farms and local pillaged by the gnoll army. The war came close to an end when King Barathen Wrynn rode with a small party of knights into the Redridge mountains and killed Garfang causing the tribes scatter.
