NPC (Sever)
While observing and monitoring the arrival of the first fleet of ships, Sever stood and then shouted an order to move them to HA-One. In the mid process of doing so, a marine approached from behind her and saluted. Sever noted that and continued to give the orders. Once done, she turned and nodded, before striding to the nearest den den mushi and picking it up. "Commander Sever here.....yes...yes it is true. I am ready....yes I have a current shipment. Currently all collared and in a holding area, why? Oh....yes..yes sir. I understand completely. Now? Oh, yes yes. It shall be done. Please have the appropriate measures on standby, if you will, sir. Yes, Sever over and out." Sever then put down the den den mushi and began gathering troops. Dividing them into half, she had one half man begin herding the slaves back onto the ships. The other half remained on standby, cleaning and sharpening their weapons. "Are my lances ready yet?" Her words were cut and abrupt, but a marine indeed reported holding a bundle of what appeared to be javelins. "Good. You there, you are the highest ranking officer on the convoy. I am being transferred, with these men I have, over to the south. It's likely just a security measure. Therefore, when you return, you will be under a new commanding officer, but they have been informed of your presence. Now set sail, and your destination is Tequila Wolf. Don't tarry, or spend any unnecessary time hunting pirates. This shipment is at the direct world government's request. Let that be your motivator to ensure success and not failure. Now, to the rest of you. You all heard, so get on board the remaining vessels. NOW!" Sever added the last command with a harsh, loud tone, as she grasped and shouldered her bundle as she'd ordered to be made, and boarded a ship. They had a small problem to take care of first before making the official trip to the transfer. It was a decision made completely by the government. If she should fail at this task or arrive empty-handed, she had been warned about the price of failure. The possible rewards though, could be just as extreme, she noted.

500,000. Still, large sums of money for veritably worthless people. People who could be put to use. Sever recognized and respected that...primarily why she followed the captain.
