With Wilczech material support arriving, the PPU takes the opportunity to launch several offensives into Tolekmai, Tasaua, Teso'o and Tamai'oken Provinces. Some more provinces have also joined forced with either side, with Koshek and Hiyai'i Provinces declaring for the PPU and Teso'o Province declaring for ORB-CS. Scheelander forces are (rather reluctantly) allowed to stay in Em'kolek Province, under the conditions that they hold no claims of control and are present solely to protect civilian populations.
