The Legend Confirmed
El Turco was telling the truth. The country here is the country he described: a wealthy kingdom of stone-walled towns set among rivers and grasslands, ruled by a council of chiefs in a great-house of timbers and turquoise. There is gold here, panned from the streams that come down from the western mountains. There is silver in the chiefs' regalia. The people, when the trade goods are produced and the priest is allowed to walk through the village unmolested, are willing to receive an embassy. Target Leader writes for reinforcements before the first dispatch is sealed.

historical_info = seven_cities_quivira.3.historical_info Quivira was the great unrealised hope of Spanish exploration north of New Spain: a wealthy interior kingdom that, had it actually existed, would have changed the course of North American history by giving the Spanish crown a reason to occupy the Plains. The myth proved durable enough that Quivira appears on European maps in approximately the right location as late as the eighteenth century, by which point the actual country was being mapped by French fur-traders working out of the Mississippi system.
