Chapter 34
Vorn wasn’t pursuing the Wanderer. Not directly at least. The endless game of cat and mouse they’d played had jarred against every instinct he had. Stuck in the Northern Sector with the Taint a constant threat and other Imperial forces hostile to those they didn’t know he’d had no other choices.
That all changed once the fleet left the new wormhole, returning to the Southern Sector where Imperial ships had no reason to fear each other.
It also helped that Vorn and his fleet were back where they were supposed to be patrolling. In the Southern Sector he could call on additional forces, and he intended too. He knew the deployment of forces in the region so he knew where to go. At the very least he needed to add a couple of tar pits to his fleet, though more would be ideal.
