As the main fleet of the Golden Skull Alliance silently fell out of the public eye, the distance to the Pima Prime System became increasingly smaller.
The offensive operation that had always seemed far away to the Larkinsons became a lot more acute as the days counted down!
The mech pilots trained with considerably greater urgency than before, especially when the fleet was about to enter the territories claimed by the Friday Colonies.
Not just the Larkinson Clan, but also every other party that signed up for Operation Saturday Marketbecame a lot more serious about the upcoming action.
Once the different attack fleets crossed into enemy space, the chance of encountering hostile Fridaymen forces became a lot greater.
Perhaps the intruding forces might very well end up fighting a battle before they could even reach the Pima Prime System!
