In yet more revelations it appears that a new "NCU" (Northern Cinematic Universe) is in the works composed of The Northweald, The Arathi (dis)Honor Guard and Deathmarch, with possible elements from Grim Dawn involved too!

Sticky rice ball & salt... food from heaven in Balanga (Bataan)

This is our food, this is how we eat...

"The exodus from Bataan took place in the hottest, driest time of the year, the season of drought. The unclouded sun seared the earth; by afternoon the air was an oven and the ground was rock-hard."

70,000 Filipinos and 12,000 Americans started "The Hike", as known to the men at the time, resulted in the two-week atrocity known later as the "Bataan Death March ".

"The first men to reach Balanga remembered it as a source of food. This was typically only a ball of sticky rice and a pinch of salt, but it was the first evidence that the Japanese did not intend to starve them to death."
