There were plenty of bad places to end up, but in the middle of a pitched battle was a touch too far for his personal taste. Especially when a ship had just fired and a cannonball had made its way toward him and another girl - an eeiako. Were he a second too slow, or not as great as he was, he would have been pulp. Alas, he had just enough time to draw and halt the cannonball with a massive output of kinetic stasis, halting it in its tracks before letting it fall slowly into the water, as he used the momentum to rise himself. One, two, three ships of the Royal Asper and a rogue pirate ship that he recognized, though didn't respect. Lawless criminals who had breached maritime law more times than he could count, and if they were making a gambit like this, they had a plan. A divide and conquer, if you would. By being here and performing this manoeuvre, they'd already given legitimacy to the Virangish stakes in 'protecting' the salvage, and that was an inconvenience. Were they to be gone, say, by a third party, then they would have no choice but to return home. Still, he had no time to talk or do much. Cannonfire and chaos spread through the battlefield, and the people he came with were hardly visible, save for the girl who thought herself in charge and the rapid swimming of a cazenax that looked like a younger Gesté-Mago. If he did nothing, in the current circumstances, the pirates would win. They were poised to fire next, and they had damn near double the guns. An idea came to mind though. If the pirates were to be decimated, the virangish would have no choices to leave as their official reasoning would be ran out. And they were unlikely to break that agreement, especially with him here. He floated up onto the deck of the Virangish flagship and projected his voice across the ocean in Avincean, barely taking heed of what Raffaella was saying. [color=E4B844]"To the pirates of the Blue Adam: This is your first and only warning. Under maritime law, you will leave the waters of Killuaho. Otherwise, you will be given NO quarter."[/color] and then he turned, hands clasped behind his back and saw the girl, captain and several of the sailors on the top deck. He smiled warmly as the smell of gunpowder filled his nostrils from the last of the volley, and switched to Virangish, his own language. [color=E4B844]"Some of our compatriots are still within the waters, captain, but if they do not begin to make their exit, feel free to continue firing. I will protect you and the good men of our nation in this duty, but once the matter of the pirates is dealt with, the rest will be left to me."[/color] Then, he turned to Raffaella. The girl had expressed concern for his safety, and for that, he nodded at her in approval. Perhaps this girl had more to her than she suggested...
