The Herwan Hms Hawthorne, named after Chairman Hawthorne of the HCC. This ship is one of the only ships of the Herwan State Navy to not have any mercantile or military purpose, this ship was actually on flack for providing no real benefit to the Herwans other than looks. Spite the hate for the Hawthorne there is a very good use of the Hawthorne, to plot and explore sea routes. that's the mission they were on, the herwan pirates had given the Herwan Government their sea routes after weeks of negotiations. So the Hawthorne was sent to explore said sea routes, and its captain, one Issac Woodledge, personally picked from the Herwan Merchant Fleet.
Captain Woodledge stands on the bow of the ship, his uniform proudly waving in the wind, and his crew not so proudly working behind me. "Take in that ocean air friends! We are on a mission to make more money, and by whoever you serve well make the money, AM I RIGHT!" It was evident that he was more enthusiastic than his crew, as the few crew members on the upper deck just weakly cheered. But he didn't care, he proudly stood on the bow, looking out, they were just about to leave the Prestorian area, and he was just waiting to lower his false flag and let the Herwan flag fly free.
then he dramatically flips his uniform as he walks out of the bow and to the Command deck, not before quickly walking around seeing if anyone needed help. After seeing that everything was taken care of, he quickly rushes upto the command deck, "Alright lads, Raise our flag, also maybe switch shifts, I think Greg and Max are getting sea sick." one of the deck officers quickly goes into the intercom and declares a shift change, but another deck officer quickly rushes up to Issac. "Sir, I don't think we left Prestorian Sea lanes, We spotted a port east of us, though we could figure out what flag it was."
