A Bombardier Q-400 slowly barreled down on the dirt airstrip near the Archesian Capital and within a few moments, it was airborne. Aboard the first commercial flight to Cardonia were the Archesian Princess, some of her knights, a few Archesian officials who are still against ties between Cardonia and dozens of students and scholars.For some of the passengers, it was their first time to fly. As such the pilots took the opportunity to circle the Archesian capital from above. The Archesians were astonished as they look through the glass windows of the aircraft, they were seeing their great city from above. They can't even imagine they would be able to see the city from the skies or even the idea of flying in the first place.The plane then continued on its flight path, spending a couple of hours in the air before reaching the city of Esden.

In this pitch black night it is impossible to land such hits too close for comfort."MAN THE 50!" 2nd Lt. Ireberri shouted, as an arrow whizzed by on his right ear, prompting him to take cover."TARGETS ARE ABOVE THE TREES!" shouted on of the soldiers as he spotted some movement in the trees using his ever reliable NVGs."WAIT!

After being recieved by the Queen herself, the exploration team were invited to stay inside the Palace, their vehicles are parked within the Palace walls. The Cardonian soldiers joined the Palace guards in their patrols, the exploration team then began their work. They immediately asked permission to use libraries and to interview the people, they were afraid to ask the Queen herself, thus they've done other methods, asking other elderly elves. Elves had an very long lifespan ranging 1000 years and above.All of the interviewees have one thing in common in their statement, the Cardonians were once the most weakest nation in this continent before the transfer happened. The continent before has only three countries, Cardonia and Archesia and the Naodisian Empire. Because of the looming threat of the Empire, the two countries forge an alliance between themselves.Then this is where the story became foggy. Most statements doesn't align with each other, but similar to the Archesian account

A P-3 Orion of the Royal Cardonian Air Force patrols the waters North of Cardonia, they are 350 kilometers out and are near the Northern Continent."Contact! Two ships!"The plane descended just below the clouds and head towards the detected vessels. Cardonia has been monitoring the situation in the Northen Continent for quite some time now.It has become a point of interest because of its supposed oil deposits and iron ore deposits way up north. Based on intel from merchants, the Demi-Human Kingdoms are vassal states of the Empire, thus trading for their oil would be impossible for the Cardonians. Cardonian oil fields and even the new Archesian ones aren't sufficient enough to accommodate their demands thus sooner or later they would need oil.The plane flew above the ship."Looks like cargo, they are oddly designed huh?" the commander said as they observes the vessel through the aircrafts FLIR cameras. The vessel is a steamship with sails, built with wood and iron, iron barrels pres
