There was no trickery involved. The Navy awarded full ownership of the Walrus to Susumu and removed the obligation to have an Imperial among his staff. He was bound by the will and orders of the Imperial Admiral only when he flew the chrysanthemum banner and was otherwise considered a Mantis captain on a Mantis vessel.

Susumu was surprised at the forthrightness of this change in the contract
''Aside from securing the island from thranish pirates, does the Admiral have any tasks for the Walrus?''

"Progressively so. Once we handle the business here on Kameyama at his behest and on his behalf I will lead the deployment further east. We will become involved in the situation in Merenae and the Tarkhanate. On Merenae, speak with Edogawa. The way to engage the Unicorn we will discuss another time, but the strategic goal is to put us in a position to be able to influence their deliberations on leadership and agenda."

''Very well''
Then came the final question
''What will happen with Wataru's command? This ship can't serve as a headquarters for the marines''

"Unless he suddenly proves himself adequate, it will likely be passed to someone who won't struggle with it. The Explorers cannot afford its armed hand to be mismanaged and poorly commanded. It is not meant as a disrespect for your Clan, though. The Admiral has already shown much patience for a man he cannot put his confidence in."

He could not help but frown
''And yet he was the only one to succeed the test. The other explorers failed...some more then once.''
He took a slow breath
''Command was not something he was born into but I think he can grow into it.''

"To my best knowledge the final decision has not been made yet. We shall see."
Yajinden started to reassemble his writing box.

''Very well''
He looked out the window and then back at Yajiden
''I thank you for coming tonight, this will likely fix some of the problems that occured during this voyage''

"Hopefully. I am of the opinion that if two men agree on vision, they can work out the particularities. We all have our idiosyncrasies but if we allow them to preclude greater things, we let ourselves be lesser men."
Yajinden rose and bowed politely.
"Thank you for receiving me tonight, Gusai-san."

Susumu rose and bowed respectfully
''It was a pleasure''

"Indeed, it was." Yajinded smiled gently, then quietly left.
