A Week ago.
After sailing on the vast body of Ocean Tribirus for 4 years, The Stellar Warp Vanguard units arrived at different sides of the Synder empire and were stopped for interrogation and search by the coast guards.
The crew were disguised as merchants carrying large quantities of goods unique to the Tigeria empire. When questioned about their motives for carrying out such a dangerous journey, they explained how they discovered the market gap and how they planned on profiting from it if their journey went well.
Although both countries were enemies, they didn't stop normal citizens that didn't have ties with their governments; especially when it was beneficial to the Synder empire, since they didn't have any strong independent sailors willing to cross Ocean Tribirus.
However, this didn't mean they were not under suspicion or would be let go just like that.
