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.

The Endeavour slowly steams on the Bay of Esden. Hundreds of Sailors, Marines and Soldiers man the rails. On her bow the Regent stands alone, he majestically flies the Cardonian flag.

Day 41 PMTwo AH-64D Apaches, conduct patrols near the shoreline of the designated landing site, it's a long stretch of white sands, perfect for a large naval landing.On the Endeavour the Archesians watch helplessly as this synchronized chaos unfurls on the whole ship.
