Brainstorming:

• I could imagine, at one point in history, a warlord attempted the old "unite all the tribes" thing. He/she obviously failed, but why and how? Also, I'm sure his ruined keep is hidden somewhere in the forest, full of treasure...
• A cabal of warlocks once summoned a demon too powerful for them to control, that escaped and destroyed several towns and villages. Was it defeated? Did it mysteriously disappear? Is it still out there?
• How about a major disease outbreak (I'm thinking The Black Death magnitude)? What happened, how was it handled? Did the spirits help cure it? Were the spirits perhaps to blame for it, because they were angry about something?

I'm getting ideas for my own setting now, this is great!
