The Second Imperial Fleet had set sail from Mestran-Drahen Joint Naval Base early in the morning. The fleet moved at speed towards the Arkianian coast, as preparations were being made for a mass evacuation of the civilian population. Supplies were quickly being moved across the Imperium to the port city of Datium, where refugees from the crisis would be housed. Fighters and bombers were fueled and awaited orders. The target of the aerial assault would be Octitanian forces that held the Arkianians in place. A quick removal of Octitanian air support and bombardment of ground forces by the Imperial Air Force would pave the way for a quick land grab by Arkianian troops. With the front moving back toward Octitania, Mestran forces would land behind the line and begin evacuation of the civilian population from at risk and vital regions.
On the eastern side of the island, the Third Imperial Fleet made preparations to begin a naval blockade and air raids on military targets in Moshofion. The naval might of the Imperium would be brought to bear on Octitanians should war be officially declared. Despite the movement of the Imperial fleets, the First Imperial Fleet would remain near Cias, and continue its long held defense of the Imperial Mainland. Edward would take no chances of retaliatory attacks on the Imperium itself.
