The tsunami that followed, which laid waste to the port that’s become Sunken Harbor, washed the ship ashore. The ship came to rest just north of the port, where the rocks ripped the vessel in half.
While other wrecks like this were surely lost to time, the grounding of the Empire MacArthur is only the start to its story. Whereas Sunken Harbor grew into a central hub of consumerism and lightheartedness, the wreckage of the Empire MacArthur has become a slum; home to the sick, the downtrodden, the addicts, and the drunks. The ship itself has become home to an especially nasty band of raiders, though the area around it has been built up into a camp for the displaced and the downtrodden, the sick in the body as well as the sick in the mind.
