After the battle, the Station's district fell into the same strange silence that they had been seeing before the nomads arrived. There were battles all over the Koleska Empire, but nothing within their assigned territory.
"Do you think we scared them away?" Nico pouted as she updated the combat reports that she had been mapping on the projection inside Santa Maria.
"I think we unbalanced their calculations, and now they're attacking the easier targets while the Koleska train a new wave of Pilots with the Learning Machines. They're doing their best, but it's hard to argue that they're doing as well as the Station is with us here.
They took heavy casualties, got ambushed twice, and lost a number of ships. That simply doesn't happen to the Arisen anywhere else. So, I think that they're saving us for last." Max countered.
