   * With peace talks now imminently beginning, the party hurry back to the //Firebrand//. Heightened Serendipity steals some equipment from the shuttle they arrived on to turn into a WARP detector, which once per 30 seconds can be used to detect anyone hidden by a WARP call within the room that they are currently in. The shuttle is inoperable until this equipment is replaced.   * With peace talks now imminently beginning, the party hurry back to the //Firebrand//.

   * The party debrief the Mytenean Societal Corps negotiator who greets them upon arrival about everything they have learned on Ace's World and upon //Her Glorious Command//. The negotiator seems to think this will be very useful, and thanks them before rushing off to arrange chairs.   * The party debrief the Mytenean Societal Corps negotiator who greets them upon arrival about everything they have learned on Ace's World and upon //Her Glorious Command//.

-  * The party also catch up individually with both Ace's High and Piercing Bough. Upon updating Ace's High about HGC's interest in ship hearts, Ace suggests to the party that she believes Wildcard Guilded possesses a ship heart (hence how they lead such a large host of bandits outside of Ace's World's main civilisation), and if the Altarians wanted to take that for themselves then she wouldn't stop them. Observing this to be an interesting bargaining chip, the party take this information to Piercing Bough, who is grateful for another thing that might divert the attention of //Her Glorious Command// and its mystics.+  * The party also catch up individually with both Ace's High and Piercing Bough.

   * However, before the talks can start, two Elegy Spectres who were apparently here for the negotiations attempt to 'prune' Ace's High. One of these spectres is recognisable as Chorister Vitruvius to those with sufficient standing within the Elegy - including to Vyix 9a, who is also present and who promptly denounces this assassination attempt as not sanctioned by the Elegy. With party intervention, the assassination attempt is prevented. Chorister Vitruvius escapes, but the other Spectre - who seems to believe they were acting in accordance with a legitimate contract - is taken into custody by Vyix 9a.   * However, before the talks can start, two Elegy Spectres who were apparently here for the negotiations attempt to 'prune' Ace's High.

     * Our source in the Galactic Cooperation Peacekeeping Force has reported that peace has finally been agreed in the war between //Her Glorious Command// and Ace's World. HGC has agreed to no further military action against the ACE Organisation or its interests, and Ace's High has agreed to take no retaliatory action against HGC or other Altarians in system. The peace appears to be holding so far, and civilians on both sides have been sending us letters expressing their relief.     * Our source in the Galactic Cooperation Peacekeeping Force has reported that peace has finally been agreed in the war between //Her Glorious Command// and Ace's World.

     * The negotiations were, however, interrupted by an Elegy assassination attempt on Ace's High - but it seems that this was an //unsanctioned// assassination attempt? Drone video from the scene shows Spectres opposing each other, arguing over whether the contract was real or not? Is there an Elegy schism underway??     * The negotiations were, however, interrupted by an Elegy assassination attempt on Ace's High - but it seems that this was an //unsanctioned// assassination attempt?

 +  * Heightened Serendipity attends Vyix 9a's questioning of the captive spectre: however, they learn nothing useful: this spectre appears to be entirely legitimate and truly believed there was a real contract on Ace's High. They do not have any further information about the Chorister.
   * On Ace's World, Fableland has chosen a future with ACE and will be transformed into a tourist attraction over the coming months. The Fableland Adventurers' Guild are angry with King Valiant about this.   * On Ace's World, Fableland has chosen a future with ACE and will be transformed into a tourist attraction over the coming months.
