Task Force Fisherman departed Fort Fishblood with much greater fanfare than before.
After gathering all of the trade goods and adding additional escorts to the supply caravan, the large group of mechs snuck through the Swarm Kingdom's territory once again.
The mechs and shuttles moved a lot more carefully than before. Ves and many others were concerned that their larger and more imposing movement increased the chance of triggering the surrounding Swarmer fish-whales to raid their convoy.
In order to reduce the chances of that happening, the task force split itself in half. Whether this made a difference or not, the Swarmers did not pay any particular care towards the distant mechs this time.
The humans arrived in front of the Evolution Kingdom without incident once again!
