Prefectii Domiel Hessios leaned back heavily in his seat at the bridge of the ECS Antigone. The update on the Yamataian position came, and he motioned with his left hand to his helmsman. Amyna Fleet's second tactical group entered fold to take their appropriate position at the border with Yamatai. It was not a large task force, consisting only of one Crataeis (the Antigone), three Thantros destroyers, three Concordia scouts, and four Lanethron cargo ships, but the close proximity to the rest of Amyna Fleet was considered insurance enough by the Senate.
Domiel gave another instruction, and the Lanethrons moved into position to accept Yamatai's generous gift. He spent a moment in reflection - he had been quite skeptical of the treaty with Yamatai - before sending a communication, audio only, to the YSS Ise.
"On behalf of the Elysian Celestial Empire, I offer my thanks. We will make good use of your generous offer." He pursed his lips thoughtfully before continuing. "May our fraternity live forever."
