Dispatch from the Capital

Dorland has endured the plague for years. Steam trams keep to their schedules, telegraphs carry government orders, and night wagons collect those with nowhere left in the hospitals. K-17, the only known treatment, can halt the illness in its early stages. Supplies are scarce, and access depends on status, money, and usefulness to the state.
