A sandman fleet entered the Cloudy Curtain System!
This should have been impossible, or at least extremely unlikely!
After the fall of Sydney Superior, a part of the interior of the Bright Republic became vulnerable. Sandmen fleets were much more able to travel to Bentheim.
The port system already fended off a dozen different sandman incursions, and this was just the start.
While Cloudy Curtain was situated close to Bentheim, the latter was much more attention-grabbing to the sandmen.
