Vankelus was contemplating his future, while Poplar The First received yet another bad news from the front lines at the same time.
His fleet was heavily hit... The Allied Forces' fleet deployed outside Hotwind Port was attacked by the Tang Army, and there's still no accurate information so far.

The Elves had thought about providing support, but they really don't have the capacity to send forces formidable enough to deter the Great Tang Empire Navy.
The Air Force of the Poplar Empire received orders with confusion, not even knowing where the enemy is, yet required to send planes out for a "decisive battle," which seems like a suicidal mission.
