As dawn broke, Eldian forces were now on the march. And are making their way through the deshria highway

Nate: Onwards! To victory!!
Soldiers: *Cheers*

For the past 5 months, Nate continues to score victory after victory. Back in the Saderran Capital, things are more tense as the senate erupted into chaos
