Eikman Migration

The Eikman Migration was a series of two sort events relating to the movement of Eikmans from the snowy steppes of Srufuaraigh to the flat grasslands of the Nizkaya River. It lasted only a few in-game days during 10/17/2021 and was led by Jewtsu of the House Man.

First Eikman Migration
The First Eikman Migration was caused by the chilling temperatures of the snowy Srufuaraigh steppe. However, during these times the Eikmans weren't known as a separate culture, or they were known as Srufuaraighs. The migration began on 10/17/2021, with the movement towards the City of Sturlungar. It then proceeded with the movements south towards Greggdale, and then Port Cansavia. The Eikmans sailed East towards Ashkand and landed on the coasts near Je Pola. When arriving at Je Pola, the Eikmans traveled back South-West to save themselves from starvation. They settled themselves down near the ruins of Ygomir, who were formally of the Jabal Kingdom. The Eikmans started building wooden huts purely out of oak, earning their name "Eikman", which means "Oak Man". They established a small nomadic-tribe settlement named Gardsteinn. The Eikmans scouted out the ruins of Ygomir and it was revealed that they had many seeds to help the starvation of the Eikman people. From here until a few in-game days, the Eikmans stayed in their spot. Picture on the right is Gardsteinn.

Second Eikman Migration
A few in-game days later, the Eikman started moving again which marks the event of the Second Eikman Migration. The Eikmans travelled out the nearest river to the East and started sailing until they hit land. The Eikmans discovered the City of New Brownwich and started traveling through the Brownwich river. The river stopped at the entrance of Tildivul, which looked high established. They then departed off their snowy coasts and travelled east into the tropical forests near Nea Ravka. The Eikmans ran by Nea Ravka and stopped by Villa Quercu and started sailing on the nearby river. The Eikmans traveled South-East until they hit the island occupied by the Prostian people. However, seeing this island was already occupied, the Eikmans tried to find something emptier. It was until they found a nearby river, they found the most suitable land for themselves. It was flat and grassy near dense forests. It was perfect for farming due to the fresh water source. The Eikmans called the land "Eikmandy" which establishes their dominance over the land. The Eikamans decided this will be their permanent settlement. The Barony of Eikmandy was soon established by Jewtsu and this would highlight the end of the migrations.
