As the victorious but battered expeditionary fleet made its way out of the Vulcan Empire like a pack of beaten dogs, the Larkinsons all got to work.

After establishing a basic plan for the future, the different leaders within the clan all took charge and made sure that everyone was doing something productive.

Mechs were being repaired.

Mech pilots were being prepared for an eventual second bout.

Engineers and repair crews were doing as much as they could to repair their damaged ships.

Logistical personnel were organizing and allocating all of the goods and supplies that had been shifted over to the capital ships in a hurry.

Administrative personnel were doing their best to house and meet the needs of tens of thousands of extra passengers on the same vessels.

And these were just the short-term assignments that could be done right away.
