The Pavonian Heartland

Where the food comes from.

The breadbasket of Kronus in the Imperial era, the heartland features well developed farmlands separated by small forests. The Imperial-built cities of the region still bear the scars of the ironlung pandemic which struck in the 39th Millennium.

Geography

Kronus's temperate band grants the Heartland long but cool summers and a very long growing season. Powerful windstorms can buffet the region, but mild weather is the norm.

Fauna & Flora

Many grain and cattle creatures. As well as wood trees similar to birch.

Natural Resources

Grain and other foodstock from the fields.

++Otrus Critical Care Center++ ++7693249.M39++
Dire news regarding the spread of the unknown pathogen causing the so-called ironlung plague. Medicus Centers in the norther sectors and in cities further west must prepare for full quarantine. What's more, they must bulwark themselves against the action of seditious and heretical elements that seem determined to see the disease spread far and wide.
We here at the Critical Care Center have been serving as the central coordinating authority since the first cases were confirmed in the city,some 19 days ago. Our facilities are equipped for absolute containment and the first several waves of patients were brought here for isolation. Subsequent cases have been isolated in secondary care centers and converted habblocks as the sheer number of patients has surpassed our capacities.
Last night, A commotion erupted in the isolation wing as several infected patients turned on the staff, claiming the nurses were killing rather than treating them. Soon thereafter a voice (that of an outside heretical agitator, I believe) came over the vox caster system used for general announcements. This agent provocateur spewed heretical foolishness about ironlung plague being a blessing from on high rather than an affliction, that those who contract the disease should be honored as the chosen of the so called Great Unclean One, and so forth. This lead to an outright riot among the patients, one that quickly overwhelmed my beleaguered staff. Over three hundred infected (and infectious) patients escaped the facility and fled into the city streets, heading north toward the population centers.
Current Death toll in Otrus City is 11,672 with over 22,000 more infected. I expect these numbers to quadruple in the next few days as a direct result of these heretical actions.
