The eastern front was entrusted to the 7th Planetary Brigade Combat Team, who was given an offer of "double-or-nothing" pay to assist further, which Colonel Adams accepted.
The brigade then prepared to deploy east towards the cities of Creux Passer and Elever Racines. According to General Ardel, the "main force" of Lt. General Fyke is located within the region.
Upon arrival, it became clear that the men in the operational area were wearing the military uniforms of the Fesalian Military. It was explained by General Ardel that it was likely the men in the area had deserted due to Fyke's influence.
