For the next 4,000 years of Naga history, came Tiid do narand, The time of growth. During these years the Naga Emperors supported a great number of exploration parties, once the mouth of the lake Kalah was found, connecting it to the open sea. Both entrance and exit to the lack were from then one heavily guarded, twin fortresses were built upon the mouths, these were the first and only buildings in all of the Empire to be built both in water and to be exposed on the land, such was their size.

Of all the adventuring parties that set out in those days, only 3 are of any great importance or renoun. The first of these parties was the one who mapped great swathes of the open sea floor, it was from these maps that the first of the Naga colonies were built outside of lake Kalah, which grew into thriving comunities and a large part of the Empire, it was from these places that the Naga discovered brass and bronze, and using the heat from underwater volcanoes crafted forges so that their greatest heroes could wield the most deadly of weapons. This was not the only thing to come from the colonies, though the gladitorial arenas were created in these cities soon a group of Naga invented a new game. Using somly sticks with rounded cups on one end, and a rounded stone the game involved two teams, one goal and only one rule- do not kill anyone on the other team- This game, called Lom niiv quickly grew in popularity as each city became the host for its own Lom team, even the Emperors personal guard had their own team, such as its success.

The second of these famed exploration teams headed out east. What they reported back to the Empire chilled it to its core. In truth only a single member of this expedition returned, they told of a vast expanse of open water, where no land could be seen in any direction and where life was very very rare. They told of how they had decided to see how deep this water was, on and on they swam down, even with the speed of the Naga it took hours to reach the floor. It was then that a creature decended on them, it walked on two legs even at the great depths and bore strong and mighty limbs. It was this creature that destoyed their expedition and left the lone survivor to escape simply by chance. The Emperor at the time decided that this creature should not be counted as common knowledge amoungst the people, though it was still talked about. The Naga spoke of the creature in the deeps, in fact they called in one of The Old Gods, maybe even their creator who had stayed behind to watch its chosen peoples progress through the world.

The third expedition was the least known but of the greatest importance, in the light of the creature of the deeps, a military expedition was raised to ensure that there were no such deeps to the west of the colony cities. What they ended up reporting back was in fact another land, even larger than their original home, and far different. On the coast of this land a number of underwater caverns were discovered, and though most of them were not mapped fully nearly all of them were used as military outposts, and over time they were explored deep, deep underground.
