The Golden Skull Alliance's brief stay in the New Scimitar System granted Ves and the other members of the expeditionary fleet time to handle both personal and official matters.
There were plenty of officials within the Larkinson Clan that could deal with all of the official matters. Goods were being transported and mechs were being delivered on a constant basis in orbit.
What was even more important was that the Golden Skull Alliance finally met with elements of the Hex Army.
The officers and soldiers could finally get together in order to discuss their strategies, flesh out their planning and become more familiar with each other's mech units.
While all of this was taking place, Ves and his family were free to enjoy the hospitality of the Wodin Dynasty in their own colony.
