Fresh water has been an insistent issue in the region, but satellite-assisted rainfall has restored a local subterranean aquifer. Previously secured by the United States, Chilean locals have reported the [[Thousand Petals Coalition]] are moving towards the aquifer to claim it for themselves. Losing this aquifer could shatter the American front, and threatens to disrupt water distribution to the rest of the continent.
