The Gwildath was the inaugural Kriavfahliil empire of the world Kriav. Governed by a monarchical system, it implemented a sophisticated bureaucracy designed to mitigate the populace's innate entropic inclinations - a consequence of the Cube Collapse that occurred in 1301 DE.
Bureaucracy was deeply ingrained in every Andrithiachian, serving as the foundation for the laws formulated by the Gwildath Monarchy and curbing the natural entropic tendencies of the Kriavfahliil. The colonists who departed Kriav for the distant realm of Bal-Kriav brought the Gwildath Bureaucratic Codices (GBC) with them. The Andrithiach adhered to the GBC, just as their forebears had once done in Celanil and as they continued to do in the Gwildath Empire.

Gwildath extends a welcoming embrace to the worship of any deity within their territories. The most widely venerated deities are 3-I, Arcana, and Ptah ; a remarkable fact given that none of them are of elven origin. Unsurprisingly, this aligns with the GBC guideline of not basing one's choice on friendship, familial ties, or race alone, but rather on the greatest value gained.
Gwildath Descendants of Bal-Kriav
Kriavfahliil of the world of Bal-Kriav are descendants of those that came from Kriav. Most make the crossing as colonizers, a journey undertaken through feywild fuses. Gwildath has sent five groups to colonize Bal-Kriav's expansive region of Midrêth. In 615 HE, one group settled on the isle of Turgon, establishing their first settlement, a place called Nénharma. Over time, this group fractured into factions, with one becoming the city-state of Nénharma and the other those of Cirongwathir.
In 730 HE, another group embarked on a journey to Turgon. These were families of noble lineage who had been compelled to flee following a failed secession attempt. Their initial settlement was established at Celanil. During the Phael-Tetramord War ( 10 - 25 ) , Turgon's elves were forced to abandon their island home. The Nénharma migrated northward to the High Wood Country, eventually founding the Rúmil Magocracy. The Cirongwathir ventured to the same region, settling along the coastline and later establishing the Spirachiln Monarchy. The Celanil journeyed southward, ultimately resettling at Tasartir.
In the year 129, Gwildath colonists were dispatched through a feywild fuse to the realm of Gwaeldior, where they established the settlement of Celebriän.
