The Creeping is best described as the destabilization of civilization, when fits of madness and paranoia overwhelmed pockets of civilization until the rungs of civil society were lost. Though not immediately affected, eventually the the swamps grew in size and danger until they took over the land, draining the community of the few remaining magic and other resources. When they fell into such disrepair, the few survivors either had to flee or drowned in the miasma of the environment around them. Most people who know of the Creeping, associate it with the growth of swamps, some experts though know it was the madness that preceded the changes of the land that was the much greater threat.
Many civilized peoples feel this area is lost to anything good or habitable, but this is far from true. Lizardith humanoid lizard-men both savage and civilized, now claim this territory as their own and maintain small to much larger communities in the Fesh. There are certainly dangers still here, but there are also opportunities, and the lizard-men help outsiders with both survival and trade. They do not just "steal" or raid from the crypts or magical Towers that are littered throughout the Fesh, as they consider many of the artefacts tainted. Some lizardith villages have an opposing view, as they make much of their income by guiding adventurers into these locations. Some items or areas are so vile, the lizardith will warn the would-be adventurers or even seize horrific magic, but this is very rare, at most they warn outsiders and just ignore.
A few of the magical raiders believe there are a great treasure still left behind and make planned excursions into the cities, crypts and temples of the area. A few of these work with the lizardith and druids of the region, but most don't, and are simply out to make any silver that they can.
