The world can be such a cruel place at times, and in times of conflict it is the common people who pay the highest price for the ambition of those in power.
I kinda wish Nyah and at least some of her band would survive long enough to join Verik...
EDIT: deleted comment below was a repost after refresh, disregard.
and the plot advances slowly but steadily
A chapter is never late, nor is it early! It arrives precisely when it means to!
Why do I get the feeling this author has read a bit of SM Stirling? Sultan Halim gives me real William Walker- well, trying to act like he's an Isketerol when he's very much not- vibes and the zebras Earth Folk and Sun People vibes.

Never heard of him until now, my book collection is largely historical in nature.

SM Stirling wrote what's known as the Nantucket series, where the island of 1999 Nantucket is sent back to 1250 BC in the middle of the Bronze Age and has to both learn how to get used to a sudden downgrade in tech, culture clash from everyone around them, and trying to figure out how to pass on what technological and military progress they can still manage to their allies. The Earth Folk were competing sort-of Proto-Celtic hunter-gatherer tribes in Bronze Age Britain that they first taught how to irrigate crops and fight as a unit, with formations, rather than the standard ritualised livestock raids that was more common, as well as introducing them to iron weapons, and how to make them. It's overall a very interesting theoretical look at what happens if you introduce modern ideas en-masse into a pre-modern environment, although from the perspective of an entire settlement rather than one person.

Interesting, reminds me of the Celtic myth surrounding the Tuath De Dannan who did something of the same: The gods took the hunter gatherers (celts) and taught them how to build ships, iron weapons, etc and then had them wage war against their enemies the faeries.
Which territory on the world map is Halim currently located?

That would be the extreme south eastern corner marked #24, his "counterpart" Sibusiso controls #25

Let me correct myself... Thought you meant where he was from this morning and it kept bothering me so looking again... Here is the update as to where his forces are currently located: Looked at #35 and the border it shares with #12. He is skirting along that line, it is mostly ridges and the brown markings are the steep "dry savannah mountains" in the distance. He is marching through the lowlands areas of 35/12 skirting in and out of tribal and national boundaries.
