''Main page: [[Stogen]]''
Stogen was a nomadic empire, founded and ruled by Morol in the 2nd CSR. It first became known as the mysterious army that would show up at the walls of major cities, destroy them and vanish, leaving little trace behind. For a while Stogen was known as Borolyk Dym Portun or simply Borolyk, which roughly translated from [[Bukk]] would mean "simpletons who end civilizations".
Eventually, as Stogen began to claim rule over more territories, as well as expand and be joined by multiple tribes, as well as whole cities, it began behaving more like a political entity, choosing to negotiate first.
It turned out that the leader of Stogen, Morol, was obsessed with [[Xaewoon]] and late [[Toor]] history, specifically the figure of Gened and the rule of the Five Kings. He believed that Gened showed the glimpse of what the true practice of Xaewoon means.
