Special guest character: Cinder 'Cindy' Fall, a fully fledged maiden of Ramment Alter and more friendly version of Josh Branwen-Krennic's sister.
While she's currently exploring the base, Cindy finds a heavy cruiser which has recently just arrived.
Cindy: FFNF Saint Louise? Who's that?
?: that would be me, mademoiselle.
FFNF Saint Louise
Naval ship: Heavy Crusier
Camp: Iris Libre
Faction: Azur laneCindy: I'm Cinder Fall but you can call me Cindy. Pardon my curiosity but why are you here?
SL (Saint Louise): I'm here to ask for aid from Josh and Emerald by both Richelieu and my commander. And it concerns about the Iron Blood's influence on Vichya Dominion.
Cindy: oh ok. Do you want me to take you to them?
S.L: I'm right, thanks. But I'm just as curious as to where you're from? Surely that you're not from around here, aren't you?
Cindy: not really. I'm from a totally different realm. I'm currently visiting at the moment.
S.L: where are you from?
Cindy: Ramment Alter.
S.L: never heard of it.
The two are currently chatting while walking towards the office. In the office, Josh and Emerald are currently busy with paperwork as usual. Josh notices something wrong with Emerald.
Josh: Are you ok, Em?
Emerald: huh? Oh yeah. why?
Josh: (puts his flint pen away in the pen holder) cause I've noticed that you have been giving Cindy a most hatred glare. And don't try to deny it.
Emerald: (sighs) yea. It's just that she.
Josh: she reminds you of your former mentor or something like that?
Emerald nods sadly. Josh gives her a hug and reassures Emerald that she is different from Ramment prime's Cinder. Speaking of which, Cindy and Saint Louise arrived in the office.
Cindy: Ahem. Apologies for the interruption, guys.
Josh: it's no bother, Cindy. (Notices Saint Louise) welcome Lou. What can we help you with?
S.L: commander Agreste has asked me to give you this.
She hands Josh a letter from his old friend Adrian who is calling for help in regards of his father's obsession in reviving his mother.
After he finished reading the letter
Josh: Looks like that Adrian and Marinette need our help.
Emerald: who's Adrian and Marinette?
S.L: commander Agreste is married to Marinette and they command Iris Libre together.
Josh: they're good friends of mine. (To Saint Louise) so what seems to be the problem?
S.L: Adrian's father is getting some support from Iron Blood in order to get what he wants even if it means a civil war.
Emerald: (gets up from her seat) we have to do something!
Josh: we will. If I remember right: in the past, he usually akumatized those who were hurt and such.
Emerald: how exactly?
Josh: (shurgs) uh huh. I've never investigated. (To Yorktown) can you tell both Hood and Mary that we'll be going to the homeland of Iris Libre? Oh don't forget to ask Tirpitz as well? If Iron Blood is involved: she might as well come with.
Emerald: I'll be in charge of Azur Lane while you go, Josh.
Josh: ok.
Some time later.
Josh, Saint Louise, Hood, QM2, Tirpitz and Illustrious (who volunteered to come with) set sail for Iris Libre. But before Hood left the port. Josh and Emerald are chatting.Josh: promise me that you won't give Cindy a hard time ok, Em?
Emerald: Whatever.
Josh: Emerald!
Emerald: fine.
Josh boards Hood's ship. After he board it, Hood asked him why he asked Emerald not to give Cindy a hard time and he tells her that Cindy reminds her of her former mentor.
