The Eager Condemnation followed her sister ships to the grave, but not before someone made it out before the final moment!
Just as instructed, the Transcendent Punishers targeted a specific section of the hull that encompassed one of the fleet carrier's hangar bays.
After blasting through the hull plating and creating a large breach, a cockpit of all vehicles flung out of the gap!
It turned out that Aisling had secretly holed herself up in the spare cockpit of the Charlemagne!
"Someone is escaping! Stop the traitor!"
Predictably, the rest of the Eager Condemnation's crew weren't happy about that. The surviving ranged mechs quickly began to fire at the escaping cockpit, but its shell was built to take a punishment.
The cockpit survived long enough for the Larkinson to suppress or destroy the Fridaymen mechs that stuck their necks out to kill the defector!
