"It seems you are correct. When do we know if they are after us and how long does it take for them reach us?" he turns to the captain.
"It is certain, if we see them, they see us. Reaching us depends on the wind, sea currents and large amount of luck" captain replies, "if we try to avoid confrontation. Should we want to engage them in combat it can be done in a half day or less". Captain remains expectant, "my advice is that we try to reach Alam harbour in Seheron" he continues.
He ponders the situation for a moment but then nods, "we try to reach Alam if possible, if not then we fight."
Captain salutes him and turns to bark orders.

*Pride of the Imperium" speeds towards Seheron soaring through the Nocen sea.
After couple of days it becomes evident that the qunari dreadnoughts are infact following and even gaining them. "By the void! we have so much weight because of the extra troops abroad that we can´t shake them" captain curses.
"Yes but we also have more men to fight too if it goes to that" he says. "Unless they shoot us full of holes and set us on fire without coming too close with their fire cannons" captain mutters.
"Have faith" he says calmly watching huge dreadnoughts in their tail.
