"Very well." Judas paused for a second as the deckhands went back to their posts before continuing, "I am Judas Haas. I'm in charge of running this fleet's worth of infantry and Warpieces. The other Casters on the other ships in this fleet also answer to me. If I am to fall, or am somehow not present, the next Caster in line will assume command."<br/><br/>"This is Maximilian Hendrix," he nodded at the new student acknowledging his presence. "A Caster beginning his journeyman training. He is under my tutelage." He had expected Max to be already outfitted in armor but occasionally he'd get a student who was relaxed enough to appear ready for combat.<br/><br/>He pointed, nearly touching the bridge of Olivia's nose and causing her to take a step back. "This is..." He trailed off for a second as though he forgot her name, "Olivia Cross." That entire delivery earned him a glare from the lady. "She is also under my instruction."<br/><br/>"This is Carolina Magispark. She has had Caster training but has opted to move more towards the role of a field mechanic." At this Olivia raised an eyebrow but did not make any comment. "She is to be considered higher ranked than both of you. Of all the casters, you are still Journeymen so you do not get to command too much. Less responsibility as well." He told his two students. "Olivia, show Max around the ship. Have him out down his stuff and put on your body armor before showing him around."<br/><br/>Olivia's eyebrows seem to slant even further almost to the point where it became a unibrow. She whirled off, "come with me," she stated curtly before whirling off to the lower decks. It was not a request or a question, but a order.<br/><br/>"We should arrive around noon." Judas told Carrie, "if nothing goes wrong that is. I doubt it though. The Gulf has a large area we need to pass over before we can land and the wildlife isn't what I would call friendly. We'd mainly have problems with Fleshpeckers. Nothing the ship's weapons can't handle but we will not be able to pass over the Gulf at top speed."
