The Aquaelie is first seen approaching the Diplo as Commander Biwig negotiates with Maria Traydor over Fayt Leingod. Commodore Wittcomb informs Maria that the Aquaelie will take a while to reach their destination. As the trade is being performed on Elicoor II, the Aquaelie is engaged by several Vendeeni cruisers, while the Dasvanu attacks the Diplo. However, the Aquaelie soon destroys the cruisers and engages the Dasvanu, eventually destroying that as well.
