The fleet, bearing the Royal Banner of Aweit and the Samurai, navigated southward along the Tampen River, with the warm sun rippling over the river surface. Though the journey through the breeze and flowing water took merely two or three days, they soon entered the prosperous and beautiful Mexican Valley, the actual territory governed by the Empire.
