Service history
The Embla participated in the Second Battle of Tiamat as the flagship of the Keit Fleet. On 8 December (745 UC (436 IC / 3545 CE)) the Embla and the rest of the Keit Fleet moved to intercept and attack the right flank of the Alliance's 4th Fleet, but was in turn attacked by the Alliance's 5th Fleet. After turning to face the 5th Fleet, the Embla was hit in the forward section of its hull. Vice Admiral Keit was heavily wounded and lost consciousness. As the vice commander of the Keit Fleet had already been killed, the Keit Fleet retreated in disarray. It is unknown whether the Embla survived the rest of the battle.
