Falling Apart

827-06-02: Battleship Harmony - Separatist Battleship, California

---

Yesterday had been the first day since the Navy's betrayal that she'd been furious. Vice Admiral Hunter was presumed dead in combat, Admiral Linford was MIA. Multiple ship's crew was lost or in transit to be treated. And all of it because the cowardly Commonwealth had refused to clear up the remaining forces. Though her response would've still been considered mild in comparison to what creative swearing she heard from the Legion's commander in the field.

The Bering forces had been defeated or retreated and the evac procedures had been a success. One thing less for her to worry while she was standing on the Harmony's bridge. The ships captain was just ordering the combined fleet to enter the ice cloud shrouding Willard Station. While she had not been serving on the vessel during the beginnings of the Nomad War in 800, the irony was not lost on her. The Harmony had nearly succumbed to Rheinland bombers in defense of Willard. Now it was leading an attack group that would spell disaster for the now less protected station.

It was only when parts of the installation shattered when they surrendered. Defenses powered down, Naval infantry raided the installation for what was valuable for the movement. It was difficult to keep them in check after what had happened to their comrades by the Navy. Still they couldn't linger. With the Legion and Separatist forces united they couldn't afford falling apart here.

So it was around the defeated installation that the order was sent, signed by her and now Admiral West, to disband the Commonwealth and unite the Legion and Separatist forces under the Insurgency's banner. A just uprising that could not avoid violent resistance against Liberty's oppression. And so the Harmony left the Research Station Willard behind once more.
