Spoiler Summary
McKay creates a simulation woman who appears similar to Samantha Carter in a SIMS-like game against Sheppard and names her Nola. Nola and her people are citizens of Gelder, named after McKay’s ex-girlfriend. Nola has led her people to the brink of war against the rival country across the river, called Hallona, the country controlled by Sheppard. Discouraged and shaken that McKay is a mere man and not the revered “Oracle”, Nola becomes autonomous, making decisions on her own. Unfortunately, her decisions lead both warring factions into greater conflict.
Sheppard’s country, Hallona, is less technologically advanced than Gelder, but rich in coal. One of its citizens is Baden, who refuses to trade with Geldar and won’t back down from the conditions already set in motion by McKay and Sheppard — to him, war is inevitable.
