A game of survival, trade and exploration in the universe of Fallen London
How easily melted are the non-London Neathers?

Spoilers, probably--as I understand it, it's the vitality of the Neath causes the sun to shrivel your zailors on the Surface, who can be sourced from places beyond London, like Whither or the Khanate. I'm not sure if the current from the Mountain of Light reaches either of those places. (though zeebergs and Nomad suggests that at least awakened entities can travel North) But if Khaganians don't get the benefit of the Boatman, will generalised Neathy lawlessness melt them anyway?
I guess I'm mainly confused about when the Sun starts to become inimical for someone from the Surface - I'm not sure if it's stated anywhere that it only happens after one dies for the first time (in London), or if an extended stay down here (for, say, a decade) would also count.

The Sun is inimical to those who have died, and those who have spent too long exposed to the freedoms of darkness in the Neath. What actually constitutes 'too long' isn't clear.
Death by sunlight itself is somewhat unclear. Someone could have been back on the surface for months before dropping dead apparently without reason.
