Río Tussock first appears in Volume 2 as a wide, brownish river threading through muddy banks and remote wilderness, serving as a natural boundary in the story's early geography. Across the series, it evolves from a mere backdrop into a critical conduit for travel, smuggling, and clandestine meetings, its muddy waters mirroring the murky moral choices of the characters who navigate them. By later volumes, the river becomes a symbolic threshold between civilization and the unknown, its banks hosting pivotal confrontations and revelations that shape the overarching narrative.
