-When Frutor came, a force of mostly Fyros and Tryker gathered in Fairhaven with packers in tow, ready to transport the barrels of water to the desert. In the end though, the Tryker were the ones leading the caravan. It headed first to [[Fount]], where the water barrels had been stored, to load the barrels onto their packers.

 The caravan's escort apparently had little trouble handling any trouble they came across, because the caravan moved up through the [[Lands of Umbra]] at amazing speed, emerging from the Prime Roots directly into the [[Scorched Corridor]] in the Burning Desert. It was from there only a small bit further to the water distribution point that had been set up in [[Imperial Dunes]]. The cargo was unloaded there and made ready to be distributed amongst the thirsty tribes.

 The Fyros received the water they needed to last another cycle before the shortage could become disastrous, though the drought was not over yet. After the caravan had arrived at it's destination, the Tryker Water Company announced it would be handing out rewards to all [[Water-Carrier|Water-Carriers]] who had donated large amounts of water. These rewards turned out to be the first Master's Instruments to be created in the New Lands.

 The water caravan was to leave on the first days of Frutor, so for the last days of Harvestor a tension came over the lands as all homins waited and speculated what actions the various governments would take. Some homins declared this already meant war between the Matis and the Fyros, and some Fyros announced their desire to simply run the caravan through the Matis lands by force.
