"The commander reports that powerful thought fluctuations have appeared ahead! And some colossal object is condensing!"
At the same time, changes were taking place aboard the seven ironclad ships. On the bridge of the foremost vessel, a man wrapped from head to toe in cloth was making his report.
The one hearing the report was likewise swathed in cloth, but he also wore a greatcloak and a small crown. His bearing was utterly unlike that of those around him, and even the color of the cloth around him differed. The reporting man wore green, while the listener wore a blue greatcloak.
Upon hearing the report, the man in blue asked, "Thought fluctuations? It seems the other side intends to fight us. Have you found out where they came from?"

Over the past two years, they have received quite a few reinforcements and finally recovered their footing. They had nearly fallen apart and been carved up by several factions, yet now they want to meddle as well?
