The conclave’s forces had reached a tipping point. Due to the vast expanse occupied by the empire’s thirty-five territories, Admiral Cordelia and Commander Tocknicka previously had to bide their time.

The goal is to rebalance grain distribution, but the attack goes terribly awry, causing death and great damage.
