Yes, sir.

[There are about a hundred apologies wrapped in those two words.]

We can only go so far in any one direction. A kind of barrier, sir. There are maps on Britannia, sir, if you'd care to see them. Our... Captors, really, is the best word for them. Our captors, sir, can take use further out, but it seems... I'm afraid, sir, it seems like they do it by magic.

And when they do, they generally expect us to fight their battles for them. Often on land, sir, and without the cannons and manpower we need. Women and children and those who cannot even hold a firearm, let alone take a life.
