See North Or South.
"...this was not the dear green Southwater when starvation had driven the Fleet..." (X, p. 63)
OK. I had misread Chapter VI. Its opening paragraph informs us that an archipelago stretches north from the island of Lannach and that the islands protect the Sea of Achan from the cold Ocean. When the second, single-sentence, paragraph adds that:
"Here the Drak'honai lay." (VI, p. 32)
- it refers to the Sea of Achan, not to the archipelago. So the Drak'honai came to Lannach from the south, not from the north. Perfectly obvious, you might say. Did anyone realize this but not comment?
Other stuff going down here. Maybe just one more post this year.

Kaor, Paul!
It's one of those details many readers can easily overlook. I certainly did.
Happy New Year! Sean
