"My Lord. I have sent out messengers to both the settlements of Haafingar. Five hours past, and we already have over 17 recruits. Most come from Dragon Bridge and Westpoint." Geralt said to Felix as he saw him approaching

"That's good. Any news from General Isrard?"

"I'm afraid not."

"That's fine, I'm sure he will be back soon."

"We should head back to the Palace now, two of our armies' commanders are expecting to have a meeting with you." Olgierd proposed

"Aye, let's not keep them waiting. Continue the training, Captain."

"Yes, My Lord." --- The Maelstrom continues to slash through multiple ice sheets, as the crew sings Ragnar the Red.

"When did you actually first take steer of The Maelstrom, sir?" Cirilla asked

"Oh, over five years ago. It was at first called the INS Jerall. It had a dark brown and red hull, and it's sails were adorned with the red Imperial Dragon. I hated it's look back then, too allegiance-bound. That was back in the day when I was a sailor for the Imperial Navy. Captain Shay Isrard, leader of the 3rd Abecean Armed Division."

They sent me to Skyrim for rehabilitation, and there, I was offered a job in the Haafingar Command Force. and here I am now. My ship miraculously has recieved only medium damage, losing only half of the hull, two masts and most of the stern. They repaired it and sent it back to me as a means of payment for good service in the Navy."

"Interesting story." Cirilla smiled

"Aye. One for the history books." Shay laughed
