The corsair was about to talk when the ambiance changed suddenly. She saw Traudel being in panic, Gunter being in the same way as Traudel and Stahl being suddenly less explosive. Nina looked a bit at her left and saw a high rank officer, an admiral, the admiral Mechthild von Herzsprung. It was an old woman and her presence shutted Nina's mouth. Nina gulped for the first time since she is here. Having seen Stahl being an explsive angry man suddenly being less angry and more calm, Nina Rodriguez understood that the admiral was probably someone you want to avoid making her angry.
It was a terrible silence. Even for Nina, the current situation seemed to be the end of everything.
