Scouts within the reserves were assigned specific locations and shifts, Sora included. His shift would end in a few hours, though he was always welcome to volunteer for overtime.

The meeting was most likely a briefing on the invasion force’s most recent scout missions and the battle plan for the upcoming siege. While he wasn’t strictly required to attend, a briefing this soon was a sign that the invasion might come just a bit more quickly, possibly meaning a swifter and easier campaign in the long run.

“New Sempra has given our forces safety from any enemy threats. The Zipanguan defenders wouldn’t dare risk the collateral damage that an attack would cause to one of their own subregions, and neither would the Mistlander Navy,” Tully said. “That being said, the treaty we have signed with the governor states that we cannot launch any attacks from their territory, either. If we are to invade from this position, we will lose our pact of non-aggression.” The admiral lit a pipe that he procured from his pocket and took a puff before continuing. “What we could do is commit a bit of subterfuge and send small raiding parties to ruffle some feathers, perhaps in a concentrated location to give the illusion that our forces are coming from somewhere when in reality, we’ll be launching from New Sempra.”
