What begins as a Dutch East India Company refreshment outpost to supply ships traveling to and from the East Indies evolves into a catalyst for European colonization driven by trade and agricultural ambitions. As Dutch settlers strive to expand their farms, tensions rise over land acquisition. How will the Khoikhoi respond to these encroachments? Will peace prevail, or will conflict ensue?
