If this dire situation continued without replenishing their dwindling food

supply, the entire army faced certain doom.

“Excellent!” Emmanuel’s face lit up with relief and determination.

He immediately commanded the crew to anchor, their hearts swelling with

renewed hope. As they docked, a tense realization dawned upon them: the

Chanaea and a neighboring nation. Should the island still be under the

expulsion.

entire armed contingent.
