History
In -1492 IC he was hunting greenskins in the forest when he and his retinue encountered a small tribe of humans. Although they fled at the sight of the heavily armed and armoured dwarfs, Nurn and his warriors examined their camp site. Angered by their cravenness, the High King recorded that they needed to be taught a swift lesson in respect. [1a]
He also dubbed them Umgal - a band of people who make shoddy things, and Umgi - the race that makes shoddy things, remains the racial name that humans are known to the Dawi. [1a]
