As the Sunflare descended, another message echoed through Dmon's ship.

"Hailing Kingdom of Everlight, this is Captain Ferrel of the Lord Admiral's Ship Aurorae, of the Marcian Empire. We received your previous transmission."


Dmon sighed, happily, and spoke aloud again. "Greetings, Ferrel, Captain of the Aurorae. I see that we have met you as the second race since our journey into the outerworlds, Marcia. Shall we meet you on the planet's surface as well?"

By now, the ship had descended into the planet's lower atmosphere, and was preparing to land on the spaceport platform. Dmon held his head in his hand and motioned for Silas. "Silas, you must speak to the leaders of these worlds for us. Take my Guard as protection in case of hostilities." Silas nodded, frowning and quickly prepared to descend to the spaceport's dock to meet the new races, followed by two heavily armored guards.
