The Isafdar Conflicts occurred after the Battle of Prifddinas in the Elven Civil War. After the defeat of the Elven Clans at Prifddinas, the Iorwerth Clan began hunting down the remnants of the elves that had tried to retake the city. This led to a long and drawn out struggle in which the rebel elves were driven to near extermination, and forced to hide in the deep forest around the area. They settled in Lletya, which served as a lodge for the elves seeking refuge from Iorwerth's men.
