Darrow and the crew have a nice brief bit of banter before loading up. Darrow watches his plan within plans unfold as the space battle kicks off. He’s laid some clever little traps, stratagems in the old world sense. Once he’s fired out the spittube we get a little drive by of an invasion unfolding, fighters going one v one, dreadnoughts and battleships blasting into each other, fires everywhere, and the randomness of battle. They make landfall having lost one Howler; Harpy but quickly collect themselves and set up an LZ. Darrow and his team deal with some contacts and make their way to a meeting with Mustang and her large force on the ground. They continue to widen the bridgehead and deal with the various facets of multi domain battlefields. Once it's realized that Darrow and the Augustain side is winning Darrow gets a call from above. The Poet has some vital intel, but Darrow already knows.
