The fleet of Wodin ships and captured Fridayman ships entered the Kesseling System, only to encounter a grand celebration!
Even though the Ylvaine Protectorate was still entangled in the later stages of the Sand War, the arrival of the Bright Martyr changed everything!
This was not the Ylvaine Protectorate of the past where the leaders of the three leading dynasties treated Ves with skepticism.
