I heard the phrase “Force majeure” in a news vid about China and thought it would be a cool story title.

I am unlikely to write a story with such as message. However, that is the perfect title for the chapter of Boudica and The Butcher in which Mata nearly assassinates Sheridan.

Works with his backstory of being a business professor pre-war, plus it is the moment when it seems like the siege of Pilgerruh may be broken by the assassination attempt.

Force majeure (French for “superior force”) refers to a contractual clause excusing parties from obligations when extraordinary, unforeseeable events beyond their control (like natural disasters, war, pandemics, or government actions) make performance impossible or impractical, shifting risk and preventing liability for non-performance.
