More Wars

Alterra had seen quite a few refugees from the heat, let alone the associate villages who were more accessible than they were.

After several more days of the Heat Wave, the other associate villages also saw refugees and visitors, adding hundreds—if not thousands—of people into their population lists. 

They actually had received more refugees than Alterra did, because they were territories easier to reach.

The refugees were a great mix of people, Terrans and Aborigines alike. And these people weren't just refugees due to the heat wave or the starvation that came after it, the refugees were also here due to the explosion of wars.

The lack of resources almost always led to war.
