Part of the steps that the expeditionary fleet needed to take before entering the Red Ocean was to clean up all of the skeletons in its closet.
The Larkinsons weren't too worried. They belonged to an honorable clan and always acted in good conscience. They hadn't engaged in piracy or launched any unprovoked attacks.
There was one exception, though.
Although no one pinned any solid crimes onto their patriarch's feet, Ves was definitely feeling the heat as his fleet got closer to the sector headquarters of the MTA.
Unlike the rest of his clan, he was anything but clean! Although he usually put in a lot of effort to hide his misdeeds or exploit the rules to excuse his reprehensible acts, who knew what the MTA might dig up once his fleet entered the Opalis System.
Ves had already read up on the procedures that his fleet needed to go through in order to pass through the beyonder gate.
