However, Asdagaar's clansfolk, having learned what kind of male he is, do not fight well.
Nartheof's fleet breaks Asdagaar's.
Asdagaar dies.
Nartheof seizes the throne.
Chaos increases.
Nornagast's vengeful kin kill Nartheof.
Earl Morgaar smashes Torric's force.
Fragments of Torric's force harry the remnants of Penda's troops fleeing from the advancing Ilirian Liberation Army.
Royalists are:
scattered through space;
driven from subject planets;
hunted by former allies;
annihilated by advancing Terrans.
Scothan lords fight each other or surrender to Terra.
Flandry will advise an Imperial commission that will probably make Scotha an Ilirian-dominated international confederation with its Queen Gunli advised by a Terran resident. Later in his career, Flandry commands a troop that includes a Scothan armed with a wrecking bar.
Why does anyone fight when they can travel through space and see galaxies? (See image.)
