Along the waters of Terra, the Seaborn have forever spent their energy in terrorizing the shores.

Forever they gave hell to Maritime cultures, and they even silenced what was once a golden age country, Iberia.

Skadi was walking among its remains after successful deliverance of the Stulfitera Navis to the bottom of the ocean. She stared down the distant silhouette of what was once a grand Sal Viento.

Grand it was during the golden age, until the entire country was sent into silence because of the enemy.

With a hum, the orca continued along the sands, listening to the tunes of Aegir. Laurentina and Gladiia were not far behind, but they were keeping a respectable distance from the Abyssal Hunter.

Ulpianus was MIA, going out into the waters to try and discover the true origin of the Seaborn.

He'll need a lot of luck with that, considering their rather mysterious nature.

"Skadi," Laurentina called out, stepping up beside her, staring into the waters, "You think Aegir will ever get the peace that it so desires?"

Skadi turned to her and gave a shrug, before turning back to the water and to Sal Viento.

Her eyes began to squint as she felt a nagging presence, loud and angry. It wanted in, it was getting louder ever since that event in Trimounts, and now it was demanding that it be let in.

Skadi shook it off, before turning to Gladiia, who was just idly watching the ocean, scanning it for the presence of the old enemy. 

There was nothing, the Swordfish saw nothing and so she turned to start walking up to the 2.

Skadi and Laurentina continued to lead the way, both of them slowly opening up as they began to chat with each other. Well, more so Laurentina telling Skadi everything and the latter just giving basic responses to show that she was listening at the very least.

Below the waters, Aegir and the Seaborn were locked in their forever war.

Aegir was still on the losing end. Though with the Stultifera Navis they managed to at least hold back the horde for a little bit longer, it was only a matter of time before they came back with a vengeance, going through and beginning to tear through Aegirian cities along their border once again.

This was a war they could not win, a tidal wave of enemies that only grew angrier and angrier by the day.

They needed more weapons, for the goodness that Terra has.

Skadi wasn't aware of this conflict, and neither was Laurentina. The 2 more focused on their lives on the land rather than the unknown war that was going on in the Inky black that most weren't even paying attention to.

Gladiia was the only one of the 3 that was doing that.

But there was nothing she could do now but just wait for the other 2 to discover the danger that truly laid out there.

With that in mind, she continued on, under a blanket of stars which slowly stabilized.

And against the shore of an ocean that was wrought with violence and horrors beyond the compression of mankind.
