|Why do we need warships? The [[Elendel Basin|Basin]] is alone on land and on seas. From whom do we need protection?

Senator [[Inis Julien]] and other members of a delegation from [[Elendel]] that were invited to the unveiling of the ships publicly mocked them as unnecessary.{{file ref|New Ascendancy broadsheet.jpg|''The New Ascendancy'' broadsheet}} This likely contributed to growing anti-Elendel sentiment in other cities, some of it incited by Lord Severington.{{book ref|mb6|15}}

 

Under the covert direction of [[Telsin]] and the [[Set]], Bilming continued building up its fleet and developing its weaponry in the following years, supposedly under Elendel's control, but in actuality clearly for its own purposes.{{book ref|mb7|19}}

 

In {{date|348|PC}}, Telsin used the Pewternaut A16 as a backup method of bringing a powerful bomb from Bilming to Elendel after the original rocket-based system failed to work.{{book ref|mb7|66}} Using the Pewternaut meant that the bomb could not be blocked by train or road closures, the boat was also set on a straight course to Elendel, and set up so that if brought off course, the bomb would detonate. Despite this, [[Wax]] and [[Wayne]] were able to prevent the bomb from properly detonating, at the cost of Wayne's life. This also destroyed the ship.{{book ref|mb7|69}}{{book ref|mb7|71}}
