Because Trolls were kicking arse bigtime in Aggar then.
"Halikiv expanded its borders in all directions for a time, expanding over the mountains which were impassable to humans and difficult even for trolls. Hunting parties regularly swept through the spruce woods south of the Mislari Mountains, harassing elves who lived there. They also raided the humans of the Aggar region so continually it was nearly abandoned by them." Uz Lore p29
No precise date is given for this but it's bracketed between the grand alliance of Guhan-Arolanit-Tanisor versus Jorstland (c. 1200) and the rise of Retter the Stalker (c. 1350). So there's an excellent reason why Arim would regarded Aggar as unsuitable.

But the Lunar Provinces aren't established until after Palashee Longaxe's revolt (c. 1550) well after Arim's time. Until then, most of the southern kingdoms paid tribute to the Temple of the Conquering Daughter.
