Kilor, Kelja, Valaeon, Teolara, Eruma and Paellor, along with Admiral Rokal, gathered a fleet consisting of 30 battleships, 11 corvettes, 13 frigates, and around 4,000 fighters. The fleet entered a portal, and disappeared as the portal closed.
They reappeared over the Xoer capital. There was a fleet of 40 Dyrakos and Xoer battleships, two dozen corvettes and frigates, and around 3,000 fighters. The allied fleet attacked, quickly taking down the three Xoer battleships, along with their remaining fighters. The fleet headed for the flagship, focusing their fire on it. The Dyrakos fleet retaliated, their larger, more powerful battleships tearing into their Rokotai, Kveaita and Lidaeri counterparts. Kilor, Kelja and Valaeon teleported onto the enemy flagship's bridge, quickly taking down the nearest crews. Valaeon swung his staff, sending ice shards at the remaining officers, killing them all. "Lock the bridge!" he said. Kilor and Kelja nodded, and crumpled the metal doorway, blocking it off with earth and ice.
Valaeon turned the warship's guns on the other Dyrakos vessels, shooting down a squadron of fighters, and two frigates.
Two Lidaeri battleships took down a corvette, and were then joined by six Rokotai frigates. They attacked a Dyrakos dreadnought, and, with the help of five Rokotai and four Kveaita bomber squadrons, took it down, though four frigates and two bomber squadrons were lost, and the larger ships severely damaged. The Dyrakos flagship, now controlled by Valaeon, Kilor and Kelja, tore through a smaller vessel and rammed another, remaining relatively undamaged.
Teolara, Eruma and Paellor spun, as they launched sunbeams at the Dyrakos fighters, taking them down one by one. Teolara said "Maera illiaras", getting into the minds of many of the enemy pilots, and turning them against each other, clearing a path for a squadron of Lidaeri bombers, which swiftly finished off a flaming battleship. Eruma concentrated, and said "Kressureo illiaras", ripping several dozen in two, and sending the debris at a frigate, destroying the ship. "Lyran illiaras" said Paellor. Gold lightning struck a dreadnought, disabling its already weakened shields, allowing Valaeon, Kilor and Kelja to destroy the ship. The remaining Dyrakos fighters were slowly destroyed, allowing the Lidaeri, Kveaita and Rokotai fighters to swarm the remnants of their fleet. The capital ships provided support fire, taking down the remaining corvettes and frigates, ships specifically optimized for combating the smaller, faster ships.
Steadily, the Dyrakos fleet was dwindled to four warships, all of them severely damaged. The officer in charge surrendered. The allied fleet, and the four captured ships disappeared, leaving the Xoer capital behind. Now they would only have to worry about Dyrakos.
