The new course of history

Eneas had no part in the events of the Argos in Orion's belt; he told what he had been able to know from the testimony of Penelope and the data extracted from the memory of the Argos.

The room was shocked; several Battleships had been lost, and the lives of thousands of soldiers, hundreds of officers and four admirals, including Admiral Odysseus himself that was seriously injured.

Eneas did not forget to refer to the difference in forces, he included his own opinions about the distance at which the reinforcements must have been. He enumerated the merits and deeds that Telemachus and Penelope had performed to save the Argos and the admiral.

When it finished, there was an uncomfortable silence. Everyone was reflecting on the events; this was the most serious and unforeseen defeat since the start of the war. It is true that more lives and more ships were lost in the battle of Helena Station, but in the end, it was an unmitigated victory.
