By the time they got there, the battle was already victorious for The LHR after Relson and Jorge managed to convince the LHR to send more troops. Nelson, David, and Rover do manage to convince the commanders there to allow them to help with the fight elsewhere and are soon put on a ship to Fort Fidor in The Holy Fish Empire.
Once there, Nelson, David, and Rover are sent on a mission to retrieve General Bark from captivity, Nelson being surprised that Bark is even still alive after not seeing him for so many years. This mission is used as a way for them to prove their capabilities, and to atone for some of the crimes they committed against The LHR to get to where they are in the first place.
This operation is eventually successful, and General Bark and Nelson are reunited after a very long time.
David eventually decides this life is not for him, and leaves Fort Fidor to head to the capital city of The Holy Fish Empire. See, David had begun having visions, telling him that it was time for him to spread the true word of God. So that's what he did, preaching a very... northern religion to the people of The Holy Fish Empire.
This does not go over well, as David is immediately arrested and taken to The High Priest, who decides that if David really wants to prove his dedication and the truth of what he preaches, he will be willing to undergo years of torture for it.
And so David is imprisoned, tortured daily, and is forced to undergo 78 crucifixions in one year. He somehow survives all of this. Lucky guy.
