Medis, 2nd Atysian Cycle, Jena Year 2551
It was well expected after the last cycle that the drought would not end so quickly, thus it was planned well in advance that the Akenak and the Taliari would meet again in the summer of the second cycle.
The drought did indeed last on, so it was quickly agreed another shipment of water would be needed. A call once again went out to all Water-Carriers:
“Citizens of the Federation and interested parties! The Akenak have again asked for assistance in acquiring water for their constituents, who are experiencing a major drought. This new request is an even greater undertaking and will require homins who have the Water-Carrier occupation to gather components to prepare the water for transportation. A minimum of 510 small barrels has been stipulated as required by the various people of the Desert.
Bresky Mac'Naroy will periodically collect the components needed to assemble the shipment for transport using the provided conversion chart:
A bonus is given for donations of every 20 barrels.
All components must be turned in by Holeth, Floris 6, 2nd AC 2551(JY) to allow ample time for packaging.
Any homins wishing to assist in the transport (supplying packers or acting as security) are to meet Bresky Mac'Naroy at in Fount. Please plan on bringing your packers early to have enough time to secure the loads. The caravan schedule will be updated.

Harvestor, 2nd Atysian Cycle, Jena Year 2551
In the fall of that cycle, explorers in the Burning Desert reported that all tribes had sent out expeditions to the nearest water source. Apparently the need for water drove them to secure what they could.
“There are large numbers of tribesmen at all the springs in the high areas of the desert. We had already seen the Dune Riders and Scorchers in Thesos. There are Barkers and Lawless at Troubled Water in the Sawdust Mines region, Water Breakers and Watchers at Oflovak's Oasis, and Renegades and Frahar Hunters in the area of the Dyron Lake.
Explorer's report, ingame forums
Adventurers in the desert, seeing this as a threat to the water supply of the Fyros cities, clashed with these tribe expeditions on occasions.
