Alexander Thorne was raised aboard HMS Elizabeth to become Admiral Marcus Thorne’s heir and enforcer. He kept the training, the British one-liners, and none of the certainty that his father deserved obedience.
The HMS Elizabeth was home, academy, and prison. Alexander learned command as performance and violence as family language.
Defection did not remove the instincts. It gave him the harder task of using them without becoming his father.
Use rifle fire during approach, charge when the line fractures, and bait a melee commitment into a parry-riposte sequence. One-liners are optional but considered inevitable.
