"Magnus gave a brief thought to Thatcher, somewhere in the deep south, surely over the Cold Country border by now" Thatcher has a lot on her plate. The skies have grown black, the ground is shaking, crops are dying and aquifers are drying up. Her options are slim, the trust in her from her coalition partners is low. When Thatcher meets Asper, everything she knows about The Settlers is thrown into doubt, leaving her to ask herself if the people she's been trying to save might actually be the ones who can save her. In the end, though, Thatcher's success will depend on many factors; the others permitting The Settlers to rehome themselves, the availability of habitable land in the North, the lack of food and water sweeping across the continent, and Ritty playing along kindly, keeping the Guardsmen in line.
