3. Skyway Robbery - Genesis 18:32

[Interovegas]

In the early afternoon Judy is looking all around the warcamp and the valley beyond from atop the Espiegel. She spots the jagged yellow-orange glimmers of three more airships arriving from above the Imperial camp. She's certainly not the only one to make the observation. Small clusters of soldiers from the warcamp below gather in the main paths to point and gawk at the doubling of Imperial air forces at the battlefront.

When vessels come within two miles of the Imperial camp across the valley something unsettling happens. Judy's sense of the eerie and her ability to draw upon it return with a shock. At the very same time Andrea, Finch and Orkan are similarly jolted by the sudden return of their sixth sense. On the Imperial side, two of the three vessels from the back seemingly unload cannonfire into their third reinforcement and begin to pick up speed as they rush towards the Imperial warcamp.

A minute later, from the bottom of the docking ramp a confederate messenger calls up:

Confederate Messenger-[Imperial]: "The general has urgent request! sixty three confederate pounds to the captain of the Espiegel shouldst they join the immediate battle and aid in achieving victory over so suddenly weak a foe!"
