Ten minutes after the fleet began pulling toward Mournveil, Eirenne's voice came through the command link again.
"The first garrison is attempting to reorganize pursuit elements," she said. "They have confirmed that warp movement is being denied."
Aurelian looked at the rear display.
A portion of the first garrison had not accepted the loss of the flagship as the end of the battle.
That was expected. They were better than the others, and even with their main command broken, some captains still had enough discipline to act on their own.
Several groups were gathering around the surviving heavy ships, trying to form something close to an attack formation.
Though from the look of it, it was neither efficient nor powerful in any sense.
But if they kept chasing and managed to force a prolonged rear engagement while the other Kharov forces continued assembling, that could become a problem.
Rhoswen noticed at once.
"They still want to fight."
"Yes," Aurelian said.
