SS Scavenger DX 1017 The Making of an Admiral: 9

Pirates plague the lanes. Governments stall. When Captain Elan Drex defies bureaucracy to protect the trade routes of Prose, his actions ignite the creation of the Prosian Merchant Corps - a peacekeeping fleet of freighters turned guardians. Joined by his crew and the sentient AI Sariel, Drex must unite human, Prosian, and Tonan worlds before chaos consumes the stars. Blending diplomacy, character-driven storytelling, and richly imagined alien culture, Making of an Admiral is the pivotal chapter of the SS Scavenger Universe - where empathy becomes strategy, and peace learns to defend itself. Includes: - Full novella + Interlude "The Jenek Ezile at Landa"- Complete Appendices A-I (Prosian language, Council records, Merchant Corps charter)- Canon motto in Prosian: Ashalt akna Korōn, Rona akna Shavren - Peace through purpose, balance through courage.
