The Martial Unity

The flames of war that the Kandrian Empire had lit could not be snuffed out. As the four nations began expanding their territory bit by bit. There were all kinds of scuffles that began occurring as a result. The core was the only part of the Serevian Dungeon that was yet to be colonized. However, as the four super nations expanded, not even that was going to remain uncolonized for too much longer.

The scarcity of the remaining resources made them even more valuable. This caused the conflict to become more frequent, causing the Martial Apprentices to be deployed more often than before.

Today was another such day for the Martial Apprentices of the Martial Union. The offensive team, for the first time since the previous clash, would be clashing with the Sekigahara Confederate over a territorial dispute.

"The mission today will not be quite the same as the one nearly a month ago." Commissioner Feristen informed them. "Back then, we attacked the fortified core territory of the Sekigahara Confederate with a powerful assault team to inflict as much damage and force them to stall their expansion endeavors. Of course, they have more than recuperated and have eagerly begun expanding once more to make up for the lost time. This has predictably led to a clash of interests as far as expansion interests go."

Commissioner Feristen pressed a button on a device, projecting the image of a marked map on a screen.

It was a map of the core of the Serevian Dungeon, highlighting certain territories in different colors that were relevant.

"As you can see." Commissioner Feristen continued. "The territories in red are the territories that the Sekigahara Confederate have demonstrated interest in, in the past month. The territories in blue are the territories that the Kandrian Empire aims to colonize. The territories in purple are the territories that both Sekigahara Confederate and the Kandrian Empire have demonstrated interest in."

esoteric resources was not even, obviously. The net territory of each nation was divided across multiple settlements

projecting another image. "A Sekigahara Confederate convoy has been spotted heading towards the Bolexeuen Hill. The intelligence makes it clear that the Sekigahara Confederate intends to colonize the Bolexeuex Hill, based on this and other things. Your mission is not merely to sabotage or damage the colonization endeavors of the Sekigahara Confederate, but to completely drive them away

replied. "In the previous mission, we simply assaulted one of their main territories with the intent of hurting. And more importantly, our win condition was quite shallow and light. We did not need to force our opponents back, this is not true in this case. This time we'll need to overwhelm them completely otherwise we won't be able to displace their convoy from the Bolexeuen Hill.
