After being done with the Gauls in New London that appeared just a few hours ago, and having the Javelin temporarily disabled, Ronan Lafayette, commander of the HMS Javelin and HMS Graves, decided to return to the Graves. A Coalition battlecruiser was sighted in Dublin, and Lafayette decided to take it by surprise. He ordered the cloaking of the Graves, and already informed the HMS Witch of Endor, a Dunkirk-class battleship, that he would come and assist in taking it down. Eventually, the Hurricane battlecruiser was spotted. Ronan ordered the Graves to disengage the cloaking device and fire a salvo of 10 shots from the Star Lance cannon. Severely damaging the battlecruiser enough to distract it for the battleship to come, the Graves switched on the defense and support role. Unfortunately, the Hurricane managed to get to a Molly base, and the defenses drew both the Graves and Witch of Endor away. The Witch of Endor returned back in the BMM Gold field, and the Graves back into New London to make sure there won't be any more Gallic ships roaming around. While returning, Lafayette asked the captain of the Witch of Endor regarding meeting for a cup of tea. Charlotte, the captain, happily accepted, though the Graves still had to stay in New London. After some hours, Lafayette was in his quarters, arranging his uniform. Ronan cared a lot about military service and valued the uniform very much, so it's aspect was important. After getting ready, he proceeded to enter his Arrow. The Archer-class is a small cruiser, and a single light fighter could be accomodated, and that was of course the captain's. Ronan exited the Graves in his arrow and started to head towards the Dublin gate.

Of course, on the way to the Dunkirk there were small pirate attacks or patrols., but nothing Lafayette couldn't handle. As his Arrow entered Dublin, he stopped the engines and gazed for a few minutes out the window, admiring the way Dublin looked. Of course, Mollys were still there, but snubcraft groups deployed from the Blackrock easily took care of them. The engines of Ronan's Arrow started again, and headed towards the HMS Witch of Endor which was under the covers of the same asteroid field that shielded Graves station. Finally arriving at his destination, Lafayette submitted the necessary data to be able to land. The Arrow was inside the battleship, and now, it was time for Ronan to change his outfit. Instead of the snubcraft combat outfit, he changed to his uniform. As he got out, Ronan was greeted by what appeared, by the rank the person seemed to have had, an assistant of the captain. The assistant led Ronan towards the captain's quarters, and as they got there, the assistant left. Having said goodbye, Ronan arranged his uniform one last time, nonchalantly knocking on the door: "Tallyho ma'am! Could you perhaps let me come inside?"
