Wide brownish river between muddy banks and remote wilderness.

Río Tussock first appears in Volume 2 as a wide, brownish river flowing between muddy banks and remote wilderness, serving as a natural boundary in the untamed frontier. Across the series, it evolves from a simple geographical marker into a strategic waterway that influences travel, trade, and conflict between settlements and factions. Its muddy banks become sites of pivotal encounters, while its remote location makes it a refuge for fugitives and a corridor for clandestine operations. By later volumes, the river’s symbolic weight grows, representing both the untamed edges of civilization and the hidden currents of fate that connect distant characters and plots.
