Current Map of their world remember not much was known so they pretty much just stay away from the unknown as to what happened in chapter exploration.

As Sam continued to oversee the construction of the spacecraft and satellite, progress toward modernizing their world was steady. His mind was consumed with the intricacies of programming and coordinating systems that would be the backbone of their fledgling space program. He had already planned out the designs for the satellite and was now focused on building the infrastructure to support it-specifically, a massive headquarters filled with computers and other advanced equipment to control and monitor space operations.

The main HQ took shape in a sprawling complex not far from the construction site. It was equipped with everything Sam needed: data banks, programming terminals, and state-of-the-art communication systems. As he worked tirelessly, coding and configuring systems, his lovers-Alara, Aislin, and Seraphine-would often come to lay nearby, keeping him company as he immersed himself in his work. They knew how driven he was, but their quiet presence reminded him that he didn't have to carry the world alone.

Meanwhile, Marcus was busy with another crucial task: arming and training their allies. Although Valorcrest had reached a level of Cold War-era military technology, the rest of their allies-Lorithra, the Dwarven Kingdom, Freehold Republic, and Darkthar-lagged behind, relying on outdated weaponry and tactics.

To bring them up to speed, Marcus began shipping surplus WW1 and WW2 military equipment and vehicles from Valorcrest's stockpiles to their allies. Massive crates of rifles, machine guns, tanks, and artillery were delivered to various nations, giving them access to the tools they would need to defend themselves and work alongside Valorcrest. Along with the weapons, he sent manuals and training officers to ensure their allies could effectively use the equipment.

Marcus personally oversaw joint training exercises between Valorcrest forces and their allies. On the vast training grounds of Freehold Republic, he worked alongside Empress Valdrianna and Queen Elandra, teaching soldiers from all over how to operate the newly provided tanks, aircraft, and other vehicles. It was a daunting task, but it brought the nations closer together as they prepared for future conflicts.

During the drills, Marcus found time to bond with Valdrianna and Elandra. They had all faced death together, survived, and now, in this period of peace, they began to enjoy each other's company on a more personal level. Their shared sense of purpose helped ease the tension of war, and their laughter and conversation during breaks lightened the mood of the training exercises.

As Marcus guided soldiers through maneuvers, Valdrianna and Elandra often joined him. They discussed battle tactics and how to continue the integration of their forces, but at the same time, the three of them grew closer in spirit, their bond evolving from comrades-in-arms into something more intimate. It was a rare and peaceful moment in a world that had known too much chaos.
