Royal Marines boarding the ship: Royal Marine1:"What the heck happened here, did Cynthia beat us aboard?" Royal Marine2:" No it's not her some of these people are still alive"
I do not comment on any of the programs I watch, but Ekhidna. This, Black Ship, you are writing is AMAZING! I have found myself getting home from work and looking to see if there is a new episode. This is my favorite auto book ever, I am sure many others feel the same. Thank you for sharing your talents with me and the rest of your viewers / fans Thank you again
Yeah, too true. Clara: “is this them?” Wyatt: “Most of them, the recast is over there, there and, ahhh, just wait, ahh, over there, mostly, I think. You might need to check the tapes, the leg is here somewhere.”
I really appreciate the author of this series not bending to the demands of those who cry for faster releases of the episodes. This series is possibly the best of them all, the time taken to do it right is rare.
The irony is that the current situation is the fastest. Personally, I hope the author has the next chapter ready to go but holds off until after the new year to give him some breathing room.
Let's face it. This is a talented and creative writer, which I am going to buy another cup of coffee for him to drink. Again asking to read more of his work is great praise. But to those that watched the last season of Game of Thrones. Can see when creativity falls flat on it's face. Where, I will not buy the Blue Ray set to finish out my collection. So, cut the man some slack, let the juices percolate and bubble in his mind.
Sero and the one acting as a temporary sword sheath seem to be worthy men working for the wrong side. The wounded Nob may or may not be, but the devotion of his subordinates implies he wasn't an asshole. I think that was the main thing that caused Wyatt to be merciful against his own inner monologue.
Not only breaking her arm but shattering her once so called beautiful face first with that broken nose of hers now she will probably look like a freaking skull or something 🤣
Wonder how much of the "surrender" the RM's watched. I can imagine their private conversation was very interesting from the point they boarded the ship to their witness of the "surrender" on the bridge.
I wasn't expecting this episode today. Despite being extremely excited to follow the story (it's the effects of following something well constructed) I got used to waiting an average of 7 days per episode. Honestly, it's an extremely positive surprise, but I'd like to reiterate the message that several others left in the comments of the previous video. We understand that episodes are released as they are written, the messages of "we want the next one" or "can't wait for the sequel" It's the type of message made to show affection for the work, please don't consider it as if we were forcing you to write faster or the channel to post videos more frequently. I honestly prefer to wait 1, 2 or 3 weeks to have a very well constructed episode with an excellent narrative and etc than to have a video released every 3 days that lacks quality and I I imagine that several others here share the same thought Your story is one of the best of its kind and I wish you guys much success.
Yep I agree. I'd take a nice long episode even once a month over say, the author burning themselves out, or, over a drip feed of tiny 10 minute bits once a week like a certain other great series :)
I agree that I look forward to these. I was very surprised to see two in succession like this. I honestly missed a few because I assumed the writer wanted to take off, for this holiday season. I enjoy them so very much, but I’m a patient person. I feel like he needs to hear more about us willingly waiting for more of the story. He’s a wonderful writer and is worth it. If anyone says “I can’t wait for the next one”, I genuinely feel they mean it in that respect. Not some demand for the writer to release new material in a quickened fashion.
I could just see the 3 Royal Marines boarding the ship in tactical formation, only to come across the aftermath of Wyatt's path. Then seeing the end of the dual and just realizing they are in for a show and let Wyatt take the bridge while the 3 watch from the hallway!
Thank You for your comment. Now thinking that sighting the imminent arrival of the 3 Royal Marines could have triggered the bridge staff to flee. Maybe the Royal Marines arrived at the bridge just in time to witness the humiliating defeat and punishment of the 2 traitor nobles which is something that they would not be permitted to do unless specifically ordered.
@@skyguy2385 he told her that there was something about that man that terrified him. that he was a killer. not a murderer or a glory seeker but more dangerous a killer with a purpose
I was more thinking that Wyatt will be needing an immediate resupply of bullets for his soul snatchers plus more bio-foam. Body armour enhancements to Lone Wolf standard would be a very useful reward.
@@MarkBishop-jg8nc I can see Wyatt earned himself the Exceeder (Speed) & Kineter (Network) implants… maybe even a 3rd that’s given to Officers for Ship Command… 🤔 Like the type that Redford said Wyatt Lacked for prolonged Combat/Ship command…
Part of what makes this story so addictive for me is the fact it is still being written. No one cheats and reads ahead. The comments section has been interesting reading some of the predictions and opinions.
Thanks again, Ekhinda. Max is lucky. Honestly, this felt so good to hear Felicity cries of pain, lol. The only persons reaction i really want to see is Cynthia's cause damn i think she will be impressed with footage of what he's done.
oh same but i think it would be better if clara didn't but she will insist wyatt staples the first marine royal pilot has a nice ring to it wonder how many noble pilots will still get in wyatt's face
I think Wyatt's actions will have a few of his friends wondering about his duality. Humble, honest, kind and earnest vs cold, calculating, ruthless executioner.
Wyatt is going to become the most unstoppable force the pincipality has to offer. Hes already getting training from 1 of the deadliest Winfields. He's being trained by a royal marine captain in marksmanship, said captain wants to train him in several more fields. And now there's a lone wolf who he gets to learn from. Not to mention the officer training from Redford, a highly decorated and respect member of the upper military. And nobility/diplomacy training from the feared Ruin of Sanity, the Reaper, the 2nd Princess of the Astorian Principality, Clara Astor.
Clara just casually adding more black ships to her new dread fleet potentially along with another ace pilot. Clara keeps videos of all Wyatt's dog fights but who wants to bet Cynthia keeps the recording of Wyatt's rampages?
@@Crazy49er I think Milkadese & the RM’s will keep the Security Footage as a Training Tool- What 1- Well Trained & Motivated Individual can do in a pinch 😋 Or When his Friends are Threatened 😝🤣🤣🤣
@@ashtonkenady123 That would be Princess Clara building his rep. I can see the talk amongst the Composters being like holy shit. He just took out the biggest lone wolf out there and for an encore he solo’d the Gallant Venture!
@@johnlesch8286 I think he just built it himself all that needs to happen is for it to spread and all the princess needs to do is share the video no one would trust some word of mouth from rejects in the military
Question...Who do you all think will be most impressed by Wyatts assault? Do You think it will be the Prince, Clara,Cynthia, Cynthia's sister, Milcades or Redford? My money is on Cynthia and her sister...I wonder how the training will be from here on out! I cant wait till the next chapter! Keep up the good work!
Both Cynthia and Milkades will be pleased but also critical of his performance, which is as it should be, they are his instructors after all so they will cast a very critical eye over his actions to point out where he can improve, i think Redford will be utterly horrified by Wyatt's vengeful rampage, Commander Juliana ( Cynthia's sister ) would smile approvingly at a job well done, the Prince would just accept it as necessary, i suspect it's going to raise some eye brows with Clara, it might even alter the way she sees him as its a side to him she's not seen before.
@PDIDDYSWORLD ...I agree and think Wyatt will be more intense, and I hope that Wyatt will ask Cynthia to include Noltar in future traing as a sparing partner and how he had related that his grandfather has been trained from a Blue Hair Demon. Plus, it be a fitting reward as one of the pilots that defeated a Lone Wolf fighter. Remember that Wyatt can not claim any credit for the defeat of a Lone Wolf fighter.
I am surprised he is a live. We will have to see how that plays out. He may be able to help Wyatt become a better pilot. He will be shocked to see Wyatt is a live that is for sure. And more so after be hears what Wyatt did on the GV.
Will be interesting to see how Clara uses Maximillian. Can Maximillian break his contract with House Cintor? Is there a circumstance that allow him to switch to House Aster? Does Clara have a need or purpose other than as mentor for Wyatt? Could Clara use him to hunt down Jade or find out who built the Black ships? She seems to have many options.
@@CJofVivaLVshe could send him back a a double agent, Maximilian's open respect for Clara might be a turning point for him. Also he must be very intrigued at how Wyatt outsmarted him. I always thought letting him die would be a shame. He is a most respected pilot and his experience would be a great boost for Wyatt
Maximilian isn’t that good. Sure he is good but he wins shit and lives mostly because of an unbelievably massively huge gear advantage. 4 times the missiles 10 times the bullets, auto tracking 360° gun turrets, bigger engines, shields, guns and everything. It’s like a modern top of the line jet fighter Vs the red Barron in a bi plane, it was never an aerial duel but it was a dog fight in that they were in aircraft fighting each other, duels are an even playing field. Maximilian has lost his edge always fighting from a massive gear advantage and doesn’t need to think as well tactically, he never thought that the other fighters would continue to fight, but why wouldn’t they? He was destroyed because of a failure to think logically.
Can’t wait for the next episode, the aftermath is going to be entertaining for sure,the surveillance video from the gallant venture is definitely gonna get some attention by the princess
@ someone commented that every episode just keeps getting better and it does, leave me wanting for the next episode. A good writer can through good character development make you engaged with the characters in the writer certainly does that
Was cooking and listening simultaneously and when i heard Wyatt say to the marines " the ship is ours" i shouted ya ya hell ya hahaha. Best chapter yet.
Don't know what to say about this series except I seen many science fiction some of it very exciting others humdrum this is some of the most did I have experienced overall
Does he get to rename and collect the prize money for this one too? They got 4 more of the corvettes too. Clara's going to have her own Black Fleet. To use them the best, they need to captain all of them with fighter pilots. They seem to understand how to use them better than the regular fleet captains.
Woo, Wyatt sure is cold. Teach a Cayston the same fear he felt as a child from the Drazzan is brutal. Almost feel bad for the noble. I do like how he didn't kill the captain though. His actions feel more like a true Special forces soldier then anything else in the principality, yet his honor shows through on the captain and unamed noble.
Ekhidna your creative insight is nothing short of amazing. In 60 years I have never come across anything that even comes close did this creation of yours
Ekhidna, I don’t say this lightly. This last episode you’ve released us, is so damned good(and satisfying), that I’m going to restart again at the beginning, while I wait for the next release. Have a rest, drink some water. You’ve more than earned that. Thank you.
I'm almost constantly reading books searching for a tale that will grip me. Most are discarded, a few I'll make it to the end before consigning them to a shelf never to read again. The Black Ship has held me from the very first episode and I await each episode unable to fathom what twists and turns the author has in store for us whilst also dreading the day it will end (as all things must). I will not presume to speak for others but from the bottom of my heart I thank you both for the time and effort taken to create and bring this tale to us. Now go and spend some time with those you wish to have in your lives.
@@quinttenoliphant5332 I’m just looking forward to buying the book when it comes out. Turning it into a movie or tv series would just be disappointing unless the writer had absolute control over the production.
I sincerely hope that many more great books await all of us who have been reading this outstanding one & would consider it a huge loss if a great publisher doesn’t sign our author to a book deal to let his works join the ranks of Howard, Silverberg, Lieberman & Burroughs.
I love how low-key terrifying Wyatt's rampage makes Cynthia. Mostly we saw Cynthia's training as her just kicking Wyatt's ass over and over again. Now we realize that it still puts Wyatt head and shoulders above most other combatants.
Thought so too. The drazzan feared the red warrior deeply that was slicing through their ranks like it's nothing. And now, Cintor and her group were just as terrified of Wyatt from the moment they saw the stag until he left the bridge to the royal marines
@@timogeerties3487 everyone seems terrified of Cynthia, with good reason, but I think soon they will all be just as terrified of Wyatt. Remember he is not a Royal Marine
@@Revittize yup. From believing that their best asset did him in to getting crippled on their own bridge. If that isn't a speedrun to PTSD, I don't know what is. Maybe, he's getting his very own stealth ship to play with
The lone wolf is a tough guy wonder what he will say when he meets Wyatt? Hope Siro Ortega survives seams to show some class. as normal you write a nice chapter here, Tom
@@ThomasRice-p9k I think Captain Siro will be amazed why he wakes up with a splitting headache in a Med-pod… But probably grateful to still be alive… Wyatt beat him fair & square, then allowed him to live… I can see all the traitors that opted to surrender, be more willing to pledge themselves to Wyatt & Clara, because of the mercy Wyatt did show them… they’ll know- Don’t risk challenging him, it won’t go over well…
I think anyone who surrendered to Wyatt will survive including all those he told to just drop their weapons and find somewhere to hide. The mysterious noble with his own armed staff will be interesting, their loyalty to their noble was what made Wyatt stop and aid him and I think Wyatt might want to find out why they were so loyal. Siro and those with him I am convinced will survive Clara gave Wyatt the authority to decide who would live or die on the Gallant Venture he made those choices based on what he saw I suspect that any nobles that Wyatt allowed to live will most likely be offered Parole : a promise made with or confirmed by a pledge of one's honor, especially : the promise of a prisoner of war to fulfill stated conditions in consideration of his release, such terms might include returning to their family estate and sitting out the rest of the conflict. Some might want to change sides but that would be rare, but this is far more likely with the commoners as we saw previously. Lol maybe Wyatt gets a chef who can help teach him how to make tasty cakes
@@davidorf3921 As pointed out before- the system for Nobles & Commoners is much different, since it’s a succession dispute- Some Crewmen regardless of House’s affiliation didn’t have much of a choice, but to follow orders or desert their posts… So, those spared can renounce their Oaths to Draymore, and return to Loyalist as an opportunity to survive by Pledging to Clara… I agree with Wyatt being the Noble who captured their vessel and stuck to his word of mercy & clemency will carry him far on the respect scale within Both the Commoners & Nobility present that witnessed both his Wrath & Mercy… The Ship’s Computer record show’s Felicity surrendering the ship to Wyatt, so even Capt. Siro will obey the command of his Senior, after Siro recovers from his spitting headache… The Wildcard to me, is the Noble Wyatt saved with his act of mercy…
The have met at the negotiating table, and that was sufficient for Maximillian to note Wyatt was an unknown threat even as he got to boast of his status as Lone Wolf for Clara giving her his autograph.
I see a upgrade in rank coming...fell like a bunch of things of past chapters that were to be revealed later are about to come forward. The one I'm looking forward to was the naming of a ship . If this is the last until after the New Year 🎉 then I shall put them all on replay and wait without a heavy heart, but joy knowing this amazing adventure will continue.
I'm with you on that. Ekhidna should take more time for his family. He's given us a chapter every week for almost a year. ( sometimes 2) For witch, we can only say THANK YOU!
In all honesty, he'd have to be promoted. If not, even as nobility, the other nobles would be pissed/envious someone of such low rank was achieving so much. So yeah, he'd need to be promoted to just to keep the social order stable. lol
@@NathanManning-in2fp Wyatt may get the title, but I think he will shun it as he will say,at least to himself, that it was a Composter effort not his alone...D 😎
Wyatt is keeping captain Siro alive? Another possible future allie? Never guessed that would happen. I did guess that Felicity would be very roughed up by Wyatt.
Yes yes yes, he pensado lo mismo. I thought just the same!! And the lone wolf being alive means his contract has been fulfilled. So, him leaving wyatt his fighter as reward?? Granting him the lone wolf status?? Who knows!?!?
Wyatt was forced by Felicity to rough her up(broken nose), but the broken arm was a personal message from Wyatt to Felicity that it would have been much worse left up to Wyatt...D 😎

@@inspiraPaz Max had the best teachers & mentors money could buy… Wyatt was pure skills… Now, if Max opts to talk and “school” Wyatt, could be interesting…
There must be some interesting reason to keep Userek alive, but I don't know if it's simply to teach Wyatt. Max mentioned a few times about how he wished to go up against Redford in fighters. That strikes me as an indication that it is not clear whether Redford or Max is superior. As far as either of them know, they are peers in capability and if so, within a slight margin either way, Wyatt should be able to be as effectively trained by Redford as he would be by Max.
@@ThomasTomiczek Hello Thomas. I think we're of the same mind. I think there will be some interesting plot points that involve Userek. Even though his character holds Redford in high esteem, which to me means Redford would be equally well suited to help Wyatt gain experience, Redford already has a full time job. Even if Redford is capable of giving Wyatt advanced training and experience, he might just not have the time necessary to do so because of the requirements of his primary duties. However Userek's presence in the story manifests, I have no doubt that it will be interesting.
The legend grows. Wyatt's the one man assult squad not even waiting for the Royal Marines to guard his back. Cynthia will be proud but will definitely reintroduce him to the floor for his recklessness. She will have to hand him over to the Marines for team combat training.
_Cynthia_ will be certain bring him back down, right after she and _Clara_ gush on him for a bit. He is still a _work-in-progress,_ but he has come so far.
More a case of Clara anticipating the worst of what Wyatt has done to have all 3 Royal Marines praising his actions. Certainly thinking that Cynthia could again be shielding Wyatt from Clara's twisted sense of humour to make Wyatt squirm a bit. Then again, maybe not but a long calculating gaze before pushing over a tray of pastries as both a reward and a warning not to create a crisis with the noble houses beyond his understanding.
@@ashleycampbell6825I can see Clara trying to figure out, then discus the potential Fallout for his actions against Casimir & Felicity… Clara will also be making a Mental Note- “Must be careful on how/what Orders i give Wyatt…” 😝🤣😂
@@tgriffetts4806 100% agreement. Quite obvious in Part9a how Clara is in a dilemma of balancing between following her Princess planning and her friendship understanding perspective that Wyatt wants and needs to deliver justice with his own hands to protect his friends. He is no longer that frightened child unable to defend and protect his friends. She had to skillfully choose an optimal compromise to mitigate potentially losing Wyatt.
I imagine Wyatt going back to Noirnavio where everyone will want to ask him for details and he'll be like "nah, I'm tired and I have withdrawals from combat stimulants. I'm going to take a nap for a few hours." And he'll keep everyone waiting for 10 hours , before he wakes up.
More likely Clara and/or Redford will order Wyatt to have a rest and recovery period while they sort out so many pressing issues to consolidate their victory. Wyatt will certainly need some of those Royal Marine ration bars to fuel his body and implants.
@ashleycampbell6825 bro had the hardest work out of his life. Not to mention that he was fighting for the all day in his fighter with only a few hours of rest.
OK holy crap. Right so imagine being the most elete of the elete, boarding a ship in a small squad of 3. Now 1 of you would most likely not be able to take the ship alone, 2 would struggle but three it's unlikely to fail. So you make your way though to the command deck coming across battle scene after battle scene and finally you make it all the way to your destination, only to find a single "pilot" haven manged to do something your not sure would have been possible on your own. Keeping in mind you have been trained pretty much from birth and augmented to a rediculous degree. Royal marines might be well known for very rarely praising individuals outside of their rank but I think our boy Wyatte has earned it.
@@strategicambiguity8390 Yes speaking of Wyatt's I'm wondering if Jincho doesn't say to him ' maniac you need better shield armor give me a look l will improve ' .
I truly love this story. I appreciate how the author would rather take his time and present a great story than rush it and produce an inferior product.
Clara... 3 Royal Marines shall suffice to take the ship. Royal Marine... Nahh just send Wyatt 🤭 Thank you Ekhidna for letting Maximilian survive😊 I think he could be a very good teacher for Wyatt Little Cayston and Felicity will recount the unrelenting terror Wyatt bestowed upon them and I doubt if word of his feats spread around the principality very few will want to face him in battle. Nice that Clara thinks about her favorite pilot and wants treats for him 😊 . Now I'm really, really curious how everyone reacts to the security cam's of the GV. They might have to be censored 😅 Very good of the Royal Marines to acknowledge Wyatt's achievement. I think there will be another acknowledgement coming from them. I really hope next chapter starts with a reaction from Cynthia to the security feed from his assault on the GV. The personell training from now on will be even more unrelenting 😜 Now let's wait patiently for the next chapter and a Merry Christmas to all
Very well said. However leave the melee stuff for the Royal Marines. Justice from his own hand has been delivered. Little Cayston and Felicity will be forever quaking in fear at the mere sight of Wyatt's heraldic shield, let alone his actual presence. Cynthia will be quite pleased that Wyatt did not get beguiled by Felicity's treachery and delivered a measured response. A broken arm and a punch in the face should have nicely humbled her for the near future. Definitely can now wait patiently for the next part while considering how the Author will address the plentiful loose threads from this Chapter.
@ashleycampbell6825 this story is getting bigger and better. I really hope in the next chapter we will see a update on the prince's fleet and Clara's report on what has been achieved. They will have to spend some time in the system to get the ship's repaired and Clara will need a lot more crew for her new fleet. Also the problem with the traitors, Drazzan and rebels on the planet has to be solved. There's also the question what to do with the cattleship and the human cattle on board. Many of them rebels and pirates
@@ashleycampbell6825 Taking Little Cayston's arm and leg? Actually of all of Wyatt's mayhem and violence on the Gallant Venture I thought his scene with Little Caytson was more like giving a little puppy a pounding. Way past measured response. Well, Casimir was more like a little like puppy that peed on your favorite shirt or something. Wyatt knew (or should have known) the words in the surrender speach were Felicity. Clara: "Bad Wyatt, stop shooting off blueblood limbs". "No more sweet snacks for you".
@@CJofVivaLV The speech was a death threat to his friends ,his only friends since childhood to Wyatt their is no mercy , the same would have happened if Cynthia was in his spot except Felicity would have also been armless and legless . Remember Maximilian told Felicity not to make that threat and she but Casimir in the front and made the threat .
Clara, a very happy Princess due to her bannerman doing simply the impossible. Redford, impressed with results that saved not just the Princess, but everyone. Cynthia should be proud that her training made Wyatt a better weapon, but maybe a bit jealous she didn’t get to help? But for me, to have the 3 Royal Marines standing and basically dumbfounded at the outcome? The Blueblood Wyatt helped with the biofoam! Is he a Firentis? Is he a captured/ransomed son of a house loyal to the Prince? What if he is one or Clara’s other brothers?? Wyatt might have a bit of blow back from the injuries to little Castin and ‘who’s the hoe, now, Felicity’.
She had her own fight. Wyatt may not be ready to go in the den of Drazen without his fighter just yet. Hey cayston and Felicity is alive Blueblood biotech is good enough to get them arm wrestling in no time.
@@craigwolski3588 I thought of him being one of Clara's siblings but it doesn't check out he has gray cybernetic eyes if he was royalty he would have genetically engineered eyes most likely the same colour as Clara
@ you’re most likely correct about not being a Prince. There undoubtedly is significance to this noble being saved by Wyatt, along with letting Captain Siro live. I am not as receptive to Userek being alive though. If he defects to the Princess, great! Maybe his near death will change him.
Wyatt's plan to stop 4 black ships and in boarding one of them alone to capture 2 traitors, the prince is going to freak. LOL Well written again Ektidna, much thanks for this part b so soon.
I was so waiting for this I nearly missed the paperwork coming in for my new house! Please do not burn out, or give up on this master class of story telling. If any complain on a delay, or any other issue caused by the real world issues of life, know that it is simply the price of creating a fandom, and crass ignorant fools will always want quantity over substance. Thank you for your exceptional work, it is appreciated! Peace.❤😊
I mean . . . I don't *WANT* the break, but you're not letting us down if you take a break. I'd much rather the story go on than risk you wearing yourself down and abandoning this.
A masterful crafting of combat and psych perspective concluding this battle. Ruthlessness in action but tempered by principles by which Wyatt redefines honor and glory through actions. Subconsciously his own standards of nobility are emerging in his mind greatly influenced by his new friendships and ennoblement by royalty. I particularly like the perception how combat action consumes Wyatt's awareness as if time moves slower, when in reality things are unfolding in speeds of reflex and reactions guided by knowledge he acquired through his training and even allowing him to perceive his own appreciation for the lessons he was given and skills he now appreciates. The captain of the Gallant Venture crew showed real noble standing by his duty, his actions and consideration for his crew. His conviction to resolve the conflict through personal battle, sparing others lives allowed he and Wyatt the avenue to honor both could appreciate. I was satisfied with how Casimir faced up to Wyatt and was promptly informed Samual Caston was cut down even while challenging a duel under the pretense of honor and glory. Wyatt spared no honor or glory for Casimir but humbled him with pain and injury deserved for wages of pride and pompous conduct, his failure will not be taken well in the Caston family. You nearly tricked me when Felicity suddenly declared herself author and responsible for Casimir as her ward and offered surrender, but Wyatt took her declaration and plea even as I would have, with measured caution. Already he showed he was cautious before accepting the duel, but Felicity could not curb her deceitful and to proud heart. After declaring surrender and plea for mercy she committed criminal actions to deceive and harm Wyatt and deserved to be put to death, but for his orders he might have killed her for her actions. Just as on the Noirnavio when they captured it, he demonstrated restraint and superior skills dealing her physical pain and humiliation for trying to act out toward him. Felicity has no redeeming qualities to consider, violating her own surrender declaration she has made herself a war criminal and most likely will be held prisoner by Clara and the prince to make an example of upon resolution of the succession of rulership. (Edit: After re-listening to this a few times, it clicked that Wyatt also used a surrender lie to overcome being hunted after Felicity placed a bounty on his demise. If this becomes known, Wyatt may face some criminal charges also, especially from nobles relatives of those killed as a honor issue). I am glad Maxamillion might yet survive, for this allows some scope of content of honor between combatants and possible alliance discussions yet another 'enemy' perspective about battle and maybe some intel on the enemy forces and resources. Wyatt once again proves paradoxical for the Clara, Redford, Cynthia, Milkadies, the composter pilots and the royal marines. I would offer another description for them to consider, for Wyatt is quickly demonstrating he is capable of being a phenomenon almost to the point of an outright abstraction of improbability. The compactor pilots now know the value of TEAM work over seeking glory through kills in battle. They have learned also that Wyatt petitioned the princess for upgraded armor on their behalf and that they are getting special recognition for serving aboard Noirnavio under the Aster banner and her knight bannerett Wyatt Staples. Cynthia, Milkaties and the royal marines have significant combat prowess and well deserved reputations. Wyatt is already someone they have appreciation for and now he takes action that impresses them enough to garner praises from the royal marines when they have seen the result of his daring solo boarding assault and finally capture before they can reinforce his assault. I would love to hear their reports about the battle, how much of the bridge battle they got to witness, what impressions they had of battles they discovered he had fought to get there. I would about die to hear the shared tales between them as others hear the stories. I wonder how much of the information can be allowed to circulate without becoming inconvenient to the prince and the principality under current visions of royalty, nobility and the values of honor and glory in practice. Though I think the prince would do well to capitalize on the multiple Drazzan battles, retaking of the fallen system and Drazzan defeat as a show of his power and conviction to protect the principality even while in conflict with the dukes forces. There is a lot of unhappy news about to unfold in the Duke's plans; further ship losses, high ranking nobles captured, significant victories by the princes and princess where he would not risk his forces. Wyatt's family might start learning about some of the things he has been involved in and how their lives are destined to be changed along with Wyatt's. I have raved here a lot, but it is in appreciation of the story you create and share with us. I hear many endorse the idea of a movie, anime, or mini-series but there has not been one instance that conversion has been equal to the original. An author's art and skill resides in the literary depiction of ideas, images, concepts, constructs, and imagination that other forms of media cannot equal because the author allows the reader to visualize the creation individually within the parameters they compose. Other forms of media can entertain, but also restrain you to what they are capable of. Thank you for another great read. Success and fortune as the year concludes and begins anew.
I would like to add to your great comments. I would like a perspective from Captain Siro Ortega and the officer Wyatt stopped and removed the sword from and injected him with biofoam. It would be interesting if a new perspective of honor and respect blossomed from the actions of Wyatt.
Hollywood couldn't do this story justice! Even the Lord Of The Rings was cut down to fit 3 movies. It left so much out. Just this chapter would require 2 or 3 movies to come close to doing it justice! HBO could, however, do a mini series! I would have to get a subscription if they did! This story is destined to be a classic!
@@ruv8341 more then likely- the Exceeder & the one that’ll allow him to link to the network… Then He’ll be allowed to link to Clara, Cynthia & Redford directly… Promotion, a couple or few medals for valor, plus a healthy reward for Loyalty & Service (His Bank Account)
@@raypearson2461 Honestly, I don't think she'll care. Wyatt simply killed anyone who opposed him and spared anyone who surrendered outright. He basically acted like a Royal Marine.
I'll say it again and again, Simply The Best. You leave me ravenously craving more. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Now please both of you rest, enjoy time with your families. We will all wait eagerly, patiently, but oh so eager.
I feel that Wyatt naming his squadron "The Composters" was aptly appropriate. All he leaves in his wake is the compost of his enemies......😂 This is by far the most engaging audio book to listen to. Can't wait for more chapters. Happy holidays, and enjoy your family.
Composters has many significant meanings to Wyatt. It reminds him of his humble pilot days as a compost hauler . He also wants to turn the dreaded Drazzans into compost. As a loyal son of the Principality, he will also turn any other enemies into compost.
Ekhinda, my friend, you are an absolute legend!!! This is so far the best story I've listened to ever. I can't wait for the next chapter. Take a rest and enjoy the holidays. ❤✨️✨️
Truly impressive, Wyatt's one man's march thru the ship, calculating each step, every corner and dark hallway. His judgement of the combatants, the care he took between each, sparing many to be Judged by her highness.
Made a response to another couple comments for this. You’re on to something and your fan base is behind you. I’m gonna say it, I can’t wait for the next one. But, I should emphasize, that I appreciate your pace, and the time you think through it. I’d rather you keep writing the engaging story that I’ve been listening so far, than be berated into producing more content with less quality. Keep doing what you’re doing. Idk if you read these comments, but I hope that whoever manages the channel and broadcasts your story will relay the sentiment. I think a lot of your fans would agree.
Thanks Ekhidna, your story always makes my daily life a little better! Hope your doing well with your family! Edit: its more of a personal advice, Ekhidna, after this week's chapter take a break for the rest of this year. Stay with your family and enjoy the festivities. Next year you will have a healed mind and a light weighted heart
Even the Royal Marines are asking. Who are you, Wyatt Staples ! Someone you don't want to make mad! Harold better make a lot of treats Wyatt's going to be hungry! And very vary rich with his own ship to command.
@@CmdCoddwith more black ships captured they are going to need captains Galt tirome would get One by rank alone. Wyatt could but that wouldn't advance the story much as he would be too tied to ship command . Cynthia not likely either partly as her body guard duties wouldn't allow it and she already admitted she wasn't suitable for that role. maybe capt sero if he can pledge to house Astor as he is a straight shooter
Great job and good luck 👍⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Wow, wow excellent I What did Cynthia find in the drawn mothership? Who did Wyatt say last week? Where’s the princess gonna get all these people she needs to man all these ships How are they going to clean the planet? And what is the prince doing during this time?
I can’t wait for the next Chapter. Having Felicity Cintor, Casimir Cayston, Maximillian Userek, and Capt Siro Oretga face Clara’s judgement. Second, I anticipate the encounter between Maximillian Userek and his idol, Redford Kalon. Thirdly, I anticipate the encounter between Wyatt and Maxillian. Fourth, I anticipate the reaction from Istonel’s boarding the Cattle Ship (Eternal Garden). Fifth, what did Cynthia find on the Eternal Garden? Sixth, Clara’s discussing Wyatt’s actions on Gallant Venture.
I do not believe the Captain will face Clara's judgement, she gave Wyatt her full authority to do whatever he wanted to anyone on the GV except Felicity and Cassimir (well and the idiot who may or may nor be Drazzan Compost by now). Wyatt decided that the Captain was worth saving, Clara appears to trust Wyatt's judgement so I doubt she will execute him.
@ I hope ekinda does this justice to this meeting. Yep, it is going to be shocker to say the least. Maximillian will think this trickery. Wyatt’s main goal was to get to Casimir not fight Maximillian.
Lol ive probably clicked into here about a dozen times in the last few days just to skip to and listen to when she says it made her smile and dread at the same time lol..
Geez Ekhidna that was absolutely spectacular, you had me on the edge of my seat the whole time, for one god awful moment i thought Wyatt was going to go to far & kill Casimir!, you truly excelled your self with that showdown, what an incredible story you wove!. Thank you for all that you do for us & may you have a wonderful christmas, holiday season.
@kevinharper725 Most valuable player Greatest of all time And went on a one man rampage, the like of which got a nod from a Royal Marine. You tell me that he's not going to get some kind of trophy.
I do love how Casimir refers to Wyatt as a puzzling monster😂. Smart of the 1st enemy group against Wyatt turned off their IFF realizing that Wyatt was tapped into their IFF system. So Wyatt knew where all their forces where by there IFFs. Great job EkhidnaWritez with the combat scenes early into episode 👏 😊. Poor Casimir feeling true dread for his life all because of the stupidity of Felicity 😨. I guess EkhidnaWritez is giving someone listeners what they wanted with Felicity more and more going crazy 🤪 . I do love how Wyatt takes great satisfaction in killing that marine capian that used his commers just to tire Wyatt and having the glory of killing Wyatt 😊. I love how Captain Siro Ortaga is like "None shall pass, especially you Ser Wyatt Staples!" 🤣😂 I do like how Siro asked Wyatt how many people he killed and Wyatt said he stopped counting after 5 from the hanger. Then Wyatt tells Siro he has no reason to kill them and only wants Felicity Cintor and Casimir Caystion. That if the surrender, he will plead for their lives to Princess Clara. I do like the back and forth between Wyatt and Siro its interesting and entertaining. I do like how Captain Siro says he cant abandon his post due to honor and oaths given. this at first makes Wyatt have nothing but contempt for Siro but then he realizes that Siro showed care for the lives under him and that is something Wyatt can use to his advantage.🤔 Siro challenges Wyatt to duel, Wyatt says he’s not good at swords, Siro says he himself also not good with them and challenges Wyatt to hand-to-hand combat!😮 Siro says if Wyatt defeats him the duel by the terms they agree to he will have his forces surrender to Wyatt. No surprise that Wyatt decides this is the best option he has and accepts Siro’s duel challenge. I did not expect EkhidnaWritez to have Wyatt have a hand-to-hand combat to get to the bridge of the GV as the only way he could do it before the RMs got their.☺ This ends up finally using the brutal hand to hand combat training by Cynthia to full use for Wyatt. I do like the touch of hand-to-hand combat duel has both combatants having their helmets off and how this humanizes the fight even more 13:23. I am not surprised that Wyatt would start truly respecting Siro for maintaining his values but also trying to find a way his subordinates can survive since even if Siro defeats Wyatt, he will fall to the RMs that are coming later. 🤔☺ I do love how Siro says Wyatt has terrible manners in a causal way that was both mocking and respectful. Then how Siro thought Wyatt was younger than he thought and Siro is older than Wyatt thought. Nice pre duel talk. Siro has the advantage of being fresh without fighting all the way to the bridge and has more combat experience. Wyatt has the advantage of being trained by Cynthia and better reflexes mentally. Good job EkhidnaWritez with the hand-to-hand between Wyatt and Siro. I wonder what caused Siro to freeze for a costly moment 17:28 that somehow was connected with Wyatt’s face?🤔 It had something to do with Wyatt’s eyes. I do like how Siro’s subordinates their surrendered with Wyatt’s win honoring their captain and showing respect to Wyatt. I do like how Wyatt point out to 1 marine that the terms of Siro and Wyatt’s duel was the last 1 standing and not to the death. No surprise that Siro’s forces after that get their captain and leave the area to Wyatt not wanting potentially lose the chance of surviving this ill fated mission.🤭 Awesome job EkhidnaWritez showing the dread of the bridge crew of the GV and Casimir at the sight of Wyatt. I am not surprised when Wyatt says he is only interested in Casmir and Felicity, how everyone other than those 2 leaves the bridge without a second thought!🤣 Poor Casimir should have instead of saying a challenge to Wyatt told him that it was Felicity who forced him to say that speech and he had no wish for killing Clara. Casmir did not deserve being brutally maim him but Felicity got away with only fractured nose and broke arm.😞. Especially when Clara told Wyatt she was not offended by the curd message and that while it was Casmir’s voice saying it, it was Fecitly who, it made and it was her words. Well EkhidnaWritez has twisted sense of humor with just after Wyatt officially accepts Felicity surrendering the ship to him, has the 3 RMs arrive and Wyatt saying the ship is theirs. Honestly Clara knowing everything about Wyatt she does should have know he would be stupid enough to do something like Ramboing the ship solo against those dare threaten his friends lives and cruelty slandering Clara’s reputation. Clara gets a face palm from me for her rare time of being rather stupid not seeing this coming.😤 I do love how Clara has premonitions of dread after hearing 3 RMs praising Wyatt’s action on the GV and probably realizing she forgot how reckless Wyatt can be with his own life.🤭 Considering how Wyatt’s PTSD get him to do stupid things on the same level as many nobles over their pride and honor. Wyatt could have easily gotten killed if it was not for S rank luck! If the 1st group in this episode truly fought as an team, they good chance would have killed him or at least injured him significantly. Honestly this Ramboing the GV solo with Wyatt, is the 1st time I feel Wyatt was able to do it not because of skill, equipment or experience but also infamous plot armor. Wyatt should have not able to achieve soloing the GV and getting both Felicity and Casimir. This way it would help further grow Wyatt’s character and help keep Wyatt from becoming to OP to fast. After all at the rate this story is going, there’s going to be like 2 or 3 more books before the House War is resolved. Instead Wyatt’s power creep is starting to get out of hand and if not keep in better check could threaten the long term sustainability of the series.I am being deadly serious here and not joking in the slightest.😐 Interesting way to end the chapter with Maximilian Userek being too awesome to be killed off due to the many contingency plans he has making his fighter/gunship having the best survival tech in it to survive even getting blown up by Astorian fighter grade weapons!🥳😏☺ Though to be honest it was done in a needlessly complex way and should have had Max eject from his fighter before it got blown up with it being hardened against EMP attacks. 🤔 Gald we are finally on the next chapter in the next video!🥳 Hopefully Redford, Clara and Cynthia next chapter read Wyatt the riot act on doing something so stupid soloing the GV by himself and not waiting for the 3 RMs to aid him. They need to bring this up with Wyatt’s family so together knock some sense into Wyatt, to avoiding going on these death rides whenever avoidable. Because 1 of this times he’s not going to be lucky as he is and will get killed or someone else he cares for killed. 🤔😔
@@Soundwave119 I’m looking forward to the Fallout, of Wyatt’s actions this day… RM’s- IDK who this Wyatt Staples is or comes from, but Damn Glad he’s on our Side… Commoners- Who is this Wyatt Staples, he has to be some super secret Agent… Nobles- IDK who this Wyatt Staples is, but damn glad he’s on our side… Clara- I I will have to remember to word my orders carefully in the future with Wyatt… Milkades- Great Performance Wyatt..!!, i do have a couple or few pointers for ya….

And i was Foolish enough to have issued that man to a duel..?? I’m glad it was non-lethal…
@@daghost11 Nah, thats a bit to far, but he will be utterly shocked that Wyatt is alive. Now he can finally enjoy a glass of Montrello. On the other hand, I'm curious about Wyatt's reaction. After his comments about Max, I can imagine that he is a bit conflicted about the fact that the lone wolf is still alive. Ah and what will be the reward for Nultar...
Thanks for the quick follow-up, Ekhinda. Now I have to wonder who was the noble Wyatt saved earlier? I really want a pair of Soul Snatchers for Xmas 😀 with extra ammo packs
It might be Eris. He told that unarmed group of commoners to surrender to Wyatt. The loyalty and care that the 4 commoners showed to the noble suggests that he treats his commoners humanly, unlike most blue bloods. He also survived a dual against a fellow noble over "a slight to his house " He is going to be someone important for sure.
I wonder what Clara will do with the high-ranking nobles. I doubt they would be ransomed at this point, but I also doubt that they could be leveraged to the point of getting House Cintor or House Cayston to surrender. I do think House Cayston may be close to breaking in terms of morale and materials, with one significant battle knocking them out of the war (if they don't just turn tail and run to the safety of the duke).
Send Felicity back to the Duke, let him deal with her total incompetence, her actions have lost him multiple black ships and a Lone Wolf and it was all down to her throwing a hissy fit, technically she is probably a diplomat so would be returned. Preferably as cargo on the least space worthy freighter they can find, but I suspect Clara is not that unkind
@@davidorf3921 Her diplomat status would probably be void based on her ordering her fleet to attack the princess and personally attacking Wyatt. In modern times she would be held and probably swapped for someone of equal rank (the USA and Russia trade captured spies all the time). Aside from that I wonder whose wrath would be greater, Clara's or the Dukes?
Saved the princess from an assassination attempt with a trash haulier. Led a whole wing when he was a commoner. Ambushed countless enemies. Defended a station with a single fighter and a temporary commanded ship. Took down most of the drazzan's fighters... Outnumbered! Swarmed a fucking lone wolf and destroyed enemy morale. And finally, took an enemy ship! What's next? A planet? The entire airforce of the Duke? This wyatt is THE mc we need!
I've been a syfy addict since I was 16 years old this was really uncommon back in the day. I'm in my 70's now and never lost my love of the genre. I LOVE THIS AWESOME STORY!!! Anyone that this reads or listens to this WONDERFUL WORK must admit, with all the GARBAGE...and I mean GARBAGE!!! They make in Hollyweird or the disgusting perverted films made in Disney these days This GREAT story would make for a BLOCKBUSTER of a movie or even a TV series maybe both together! Think about it... no useless Sex scenes or nudity or such bad story lines as to leave you winching upon hear it, and all of which Hollyweird just won't do without these days cause their lackluster Stories have nothing...NOTHING else to offer...all the real writing talent having left them long ago! Give me a woo woo if you agree! We need to give the talented Author greater support, hope and insight! God Bless him in this endeavor, Amen.
Clara ordered Wyatt not to kill them, she never said that they could not be a "bit damaged". And I hope that Wyatt's price for all this effort will be the command of the "Gallant Venture". Can you image Redford on the Noirnavio and Wyatt on the "Gallant Venture", commanding the light destroyed as a fighter... Be scared... very scared. We had a preview of this in Jintrax when Wyatt commanded the Noirnavio. Plus, imagine the "Gallant Venture" modified by Jincho and piloted by Wyatt :D We will have to wait for a new episode after Christmas. Side note: it will be interesting to see the point of view/performance review from Milkades and Cynthia }:-)
Yeah I don't think Wyatt's going to be given command of the GV. That would split him up from Clara unless Clara also switched over to the GV, but Wyatt does not have the standing yet to be commander of the Princess's flagship.
Neither Wyatt nor Galt have the rank to command the GV, I believe that needs to be a Lieutenant Commander (don't forget Galt is currently an Ensign even though he has the experience, also they were short crewed already
@@davidorf3921given the docile nature of most commoners and the respect earned by defeating the previous captain, I don’t see a problem with most of the ships crews switching sides. It will not be easy and there will have to be precautions taken; but surely not all of them would be a risk.
Ekhidna, I only have ever been enticed by audio books once before, But My addiction to yours is leagues ahead. Take your Time with releasing parts, for I will be waiting every day for the next, But always knowing they will come someday.

I do not comment on any of the programs I watch, but Ekhidna. This, Black Ship, you are writing is AMAZING! I have found myself getting home from work and looking to see if there is a new episode.
This is my favorite auto book ever, I am sure many others feel the same.
Thank you for sharing your talents with me and the rest of your viewers / fans
Thank you again
Ditto :)
Thank you kindly!
True true , i have already been through it twice 😁
Clara said to bring them back alive. She didn't say in how many pieces !
Good point!😂😂😂😂
True. 😂
i have been expecting for two weeks for Wyatt to cut his tongue out and to remove her hands
@@CSHYDRASHOCKI thought he would have removed the one with the knife for sure. I would have.
Yeah, too true. Clara: “is this them?” Wyatt: “Most of them, the recast is over there, there and, ahhh, just wait, ahh, over there, mostly, I think. You might need to check the tapes, the leg is here somewhere.”
I really appreciate the author of this series not bending to the demands of those who cry for faster releases of the episodes. This series is possibly the best of them all, the time taken to do it right is rare.
The irony is that the current situation is the fastest. Personally, I hope the author has the next chapter ready to go but holds off until after the new year to give him some breathing room.
I agree, in truth, I think that this chapter needs time to settle and be absorbed by the masses before the next chapter is released.
I whole heartedly concur... I will be purchasing this book when it becomes available!!!
Let's face it. This is a talented and creative writer, which I am going to buy another cup of coffee for him to drink. Again asking to read more of his work is great praise. But to those that watched the last season of Game of Thrones. Can see when creativity falls flat on it's face. Where, I will not buy the Blue Ray set to finish out my collection. So, cut the man some slack, let the juices percolate and bubble in his mind.
@@TheZeusxt2000and waiting on the movie
I actually love it when the story includes moments of nobles acting with true nobility.
Yeah it's nice to see that they aren't all crap and some of them do remember, at least the idea, of noblesse oblige.
@@dannya951 Captain Sero is someone I think has true honor. I love that he seemed to care about his people
Sero and the one acting as a temporary sword sheath seem to be worthy men working for the wrong side.
The wounded Nob may or may not be, but the devotion of his subordinates implies he wasn't an asshole. I think that was the main thing that caused Wyatt to be merciful against his own inner monologue.
I love the line, 'Your surrender is duly noted." There is just something so Darth Vader about it.
@ss9749 After breaking her arm in half, lol can't forget that part 😂
just add lady Felicity to it, and it would be very much Darth Vader
Not only breaking her arm but shattering her once so called beautiful face first with that broken nose of hers now she will probably look like a freaking skull or something 🤣
Wonder how much of the "surrender" the RM's watched. I can imagine their private conversation was very interesting from the point they boarded the ship to their witness of the "surrender" on the bridge.
@@Davicus1 can imagine they made a kill count "hey here are seven more"😆
Wyatt is something none of them are prepared for. Something even the lone wolves will fear.
Lucky for them that Wyatt don't had a dog.
DAMN, the Royal Marines praised Wyatt
They should be angry, he took their job away. lol
THREE of them!
That reminds me of the Royal Marines called Weapons in the Green Rider series.
@@lvc394 they where to impressed to be angy with him
Royal Marines have pretty much adopted Wayat.
I wasn't expecting this episode today.
Despite being extremely excited to follow the story (it's the effects of following something well constructed) I got used to waiting an average of 7 days per episode.
Honestly, it's an extremely positive surprise, but I'd like to reiterate the message that several others left in the comments of the previous video.
We understand that episodes are released as they are written, the messages of "we want the next one" or "can't wait for the sequel" It's the type of message made to show affection for the work, please don't consider it as if we were forcing you to write faster or the channel to post videos more frequently.
I honestly prefer to wait 1, 2 or 3 weeks to have a very well constructed episode with an excellent narrative and etc than to have a video released every 3 days that lacks quality and I I imagine that several others here share the same thought
Your story is one of the best of its kind and I wish you guys much success.
Ah... it was announced yesterday that b would come a day later.
Yep I agree. I'd take a nice long episode even once a month over say, the author burning themselves out, or, over a drip feed of tiny 10 minute bits once a week like a certain other great series :)
Your words speak for majority of us, Thank you
I second that motion
I agree that I look forward to these. I was very surprised to see two in succession like this. I honestly missed a few because I assumed the writer wanted to take off, for this holiday season.
I enjoy them so very much, but I’m a patient person. I feel like he needs to hear more about us willingly waiting for more of the story. He’s a wonderful writer and is worth it. If anyone says “I can’t wait for the next one”, I genuinely feel they mean it in that respect. Not some demand for the writer to release new material in a quickened fashion.
I could just see the 3 Royal Marines boarding the ship in tactical formation, only to come across the aftermath of Wyatt's path. Then seeing the end of the dual and just realizing they are in for a show and let Wyatt take the bridge while the 3 watch from the hallway!
Could see them started a slow clap afterward
The three royal marines standing back, placing bets on how long it'll take wyatt to win
Thank You for your comment. Now thinking that sighting the imminent arrival of the 3 Royal Marines could have triggered the bridge staff to flee. Maybe the Royal Marines arrived at the bridge just in time to witness the humiliating defeat and punishment of the 2 traitor nobles which is something that they would not be permitted to do unless specifically ordered.
@@ashleycampbell6825 wow, great observation did not think about it that way. I believe you are correct.
I bet one of the just hands him a small bag of loaded magazines and says something like “Milkades asked me to bring these.”
Wow!! Sounds like a hint that Clara is beginning to take the warning Uriel Holks gave her about Wyatt seriously.
What was his warning again?
@@skyguy2385 he told her that there was something about that man that terrified him. that he was a killer. not a murderer or a glory seeker but more dangerous a killer with a purpose
She was already starting to when the pirates came into play, but yes I think you are right she is taking his advice way more seriously.

epic. can’t wait for wyatt’s debrief with redford and the princess.
Have a feeling that homeboy is getting some upgrades soon and at least one, if not more, extra instructors.
I was more thinking that Wyatt will be needing an immediate resupply of bullets for his soul snatchers plus more bio-foam. Body armour enhancements to Lone Wolf standard would be a very useful reward.
@@MarkBishop-jg8nc I can see Wyatt earned himself the Exceeder (Speed) & Kineter (Network) implants… maybe even a 3rd that’s given to Officers for Ship Command… 🤔 Like the type that Redford said Wyatt Lacked for prolonged Combat/Ship command…
Part of what makes this story so addictive for me is the fact it is still being written. No one cheats and reads ahead. The comments section has been interesting reading some of the predictions and opinions.
Thanks again, Ekhinda. Max is lucky. Honestly, this felt so good to hear Felicity cries of pain, lol. The only persons reaction i really want to see is Cynthia's cause damn i think she will be impressed with footage of what he's done.
and do not forget about Milkades.
I bet he will ask Clara to transfer Wyatt to the Royal Marines again ;-)
Ikr
oh same but i think it would be better if clara didn't but she will insist
wyatt staples the first marine royal pilot
has a nice ring to it
wonder how many noble pilots will still get in wyatt's face
I think Wyatt's actions will have a few of his friends wondering about his duality. Humble, honest, kind and earnest vs cold, calculating, ruthless executioner.
@@leslieleepack62That’s typical of Marines- “No Greater Friend & No Worst Enemy..” 😉😎
Every chapter just seems to keep getting better than the last. This was genuinely the best so far and that is saying a lot!
Another excellent chapter; Wyatt truly has a monster within him. Our favorite avian technician will be overjoyed with a complete ship to disassemble.
It's very interesting how was our author went from to space battles to with the same edge of the seat captivation..
With on board ship bloody confrontations
@@quinttenoliphant5332 addicting isn’t it?
I love this, Wyatt is terrifying and heroic at the same time. Paradoxical as is said.
Wyatt is going to become the most unstoppable force the pincipality has to offer. Hes already getting training from 1 of the deadliest Winfields. He's being trained by a royal marine captain in marksmanship, said captain wants to train him in several more fields. And now there's a lone wolf who he gets to learn from. Not to mention the officer training from Redford, a highly decorated and respect member of the upper military. And nobility/diplomacy training from the feared Ruin of Sanity, the Reaper, the 2nd Princess of the Astorian Principality, Clara Astor.
Yes, yes! More notable side characters “joining” our merry band of loyalists to flesh out the narrative!
_WOOO!_
Incredible....Wyatt a G!!!! Princess gonna be shocked when she the video
in hope they eat popcorn all three (or the equivalent in that century) and comment on the video. would be a great action movie. >:)
well think also what Cynthia will do in his next training session
@omegavirex he bout to get f'd up, she taking it too a whole notha level
@@omegavirex You know Cynthia gonna critique his performance on the GV.

My money is on Cynthia and her sister...I wonder how the training will be from here on out! I cant wait till the next chapter! Keep up the good work!
Pdiddysworld! You've been a fantastic supporter, thank you so much!
@@scifistories1977No problem! Loyalty Is It's Own Reward!
Both Cynthia and Milkades will be pleased but also critical of his performance, which is as it should be, they are his instructors after all so they will cast a very critical eye over his actions to point out where he can improve, i think Redford will be utterly horrified by Wyatt's vengeful rampage, Commander Juliana ( Cynthia's sister ) would smile approvingly at a job well done, the Prince would just accept it as necessary, i suspect it's going to raise some eye brows with Clara, it might even alter the way she sees him as its a side to him she's not seen before.
I say... Clara
@PDIDDYSWORLD ...I agree and think Wyatt will be more intense, and I hope that Wyatt will ask Cynthia to include Noltar in future traing as a sparing partner and how he had related that his grandfather has been trained from a Blue Hair Demon. Plus, it be a fitting reward as one of the pilots that defeated a Lone Wolf fighter. Remember that Wyatt can not claim any credit for the defeat of a Lone Wolf fighter.
I am glad that Maximilian is not dead, I liked him a lot, even as an enemy. Maybe he can help develop Wyatt's fighter skills.
I am surprised he is a live. We will have to see how that plays out. He may be able to help Wyatt become a better pilot. He will be shocked to see Wyatt is a live that is for sure. And more so after be hears what Wyatt did on the GV.
@DeathclawJedi yea, I know the feeling. Made a few posts guessing the future and failed. It's nice to be right for once.
Will be interesting to see how Clara uses Maximillian. Can Maximillian break his contract with House Cintor? Is there a circumstance that allow him to switch to House Aster? Does Clara have a need or purpose other than as mentor for Wyatt? Could Clara use him to hunt down Jade or find out who built the Black ships? She seems to have many options.
@@CJofVivaLVshe could send him back a a double agent, Maximilian's open respect for Clara might be a turning point for him.
Also he must be very intrigued at how Wyatt outsmarted him.
I always thought letting him die would be a shame.
He is a most respected pilot and his experience would be a great boost for Wyatt
Maximilian isn’t that good. Sure he is good but he wins shit and lives mostly because of an unbelievably massively huge gear advantage. 4 times the missiles 10 times the bullets, auto tracking 360° gun turrets, bigger engines, shields, guns and everything. It’s like a modern top of the line jet fighter Vs the red Barron in a bi plane, it was never an aerial duel but it was a dog fight in that they were in aircraft fighting each other, duels are an even playing field. Maximilian has lost his edge always fighting from a massive gear advantage and doesn’t need to think as well tactically, he never thought that the other fighters would continue to fight, but why wouldn’t they? He was destroyed because of a failure to think logically.
Can’t wait for the next episode, the aftermath is going to be entertaining for sure,the surveillance video from the gallant venture is definitely gonna get some attention by the princess
i also want the prince his reaction to the news once they reached him.
@ someone commented that every episode just keeps getting better and it does, leave me wanting for the next episode. A good writer can through good character development make you engaged with the characters in the writer certainly does that
We definitelly need this as a paper book
A series on TV somewhere
Both!!
And a game

Im worried they would woke it up and ruin it. This story has more soul than anything released in the last 5 years.@daviddickey9762
Was cooking and listening simultaneously and when i heard Wyatt say to the marines " the ship is ours" i shouted ya ya hell ya hahaha. Best chapter yet.
Don't know what to say about this series except I seen many science fiction some of it very exciting others humdrum this is some of the most did I have experienced overall
yes and I kept rerunning the last 2 minutes and laughed the whole time, so precious.
Great episode Ekinda❤
Wyatt Staples goes on collecting Black Ships! =^.^= Just a pure wonderfull Story :)
eventually he’ll be allowed to keep one.
Does he get to rename and collect the prize money for this one too?
They got 4 more of the corvettes too. Clara's going to have her own Black Fleet. To use them the best, they need to captain all of them with fighter pilots. They seem to understand how to use them better than the regular fleet captains.
@@Davicus1The Composters commanding the black ships would be fun to listen to. Wyatt in charge of GV with Leopold as first mate? :-)
@@ScotMcDonald-n3d I agree, The Black Ship Fleet will be called The Composter Fleet(Their Motto will be, Let's take out the Trash).
@@danwhiteman2529or let's recycle the trash
Treats. Well said Princess.
back to back we are surly not worthy thank you!
Woo, Wyatt sure is cold. Teach a Cayston the same fear he felt as a child from the Drazzan is brutal. Almost feel bad for the noble.
I do like how he didn't kill the captain though. His actions feel more like a true Special forces soldier then anything else in the principality, yet his honor shows through on the captain and unamed noble.
Ekhidna your creative insight is nothing short of amazing. In 60 years I have never come across anything that even comes close did this creation of yours
Ekhidna, I don’t say this lightly.
This last episode you’ve released us, is so damned good(and satisfying), that I’m going to restart again at the beginning, while I wait for the next release.
Have a rest, drink some water. You’ve more than earned that. Thank you.
I'm almost constantly reading books searching for a tale that will grip me. Most are discarded, a few I'll make it to the end before consigning them to a shelf never to read again. The Black Ship has held me from the very first episode and I await each episode unable to fathom what twists and turns the author has in store for us whilst also dreading the day it will end (as all things must). I will not presume to speak for others but from the bottom of my heart I thank you both for the time and effort taken to create and bring this tale to us. Now go and spend some time with those you wish to have in your lives.
I know why it's real name Clark Kent
Would love to see this turned into a movie or live action series
@@quinttenoliphant5332 I’m just looking forward to buying the book when it comes out. Turning it into a movie or tv series would just be disappointing unless the writer had absolute control over the production.
Please recomend other stories🎉
I sincerely hope that many more great books await all of us who have been reading this outstanding one & would consider it a huge loss if a great publisher doesn’t sign our author to a book deal to let his works join the ranks of Howard, Silverberg, Lieberman & Burroughs.
OMFG THAT WAS AN AMAZING CHAPTER!!!
Oh snap, the doom music kicks in
I love how low-key terrifying Wyatt's rampage makes Cynthia. Mostly we saw Cynthia's training as her just kicking Wyatt's ass over and over again. Now we realize that it still puts Wyatt head and shoulders above most other combatants.
Thought so too. The drazzan feared the red warrior deeply that was slicing through their ranks like it's nothing.
And now, Cintor and her group were just as terrified of Wyatt from the moment they saw the stag until he left the bridge to the royal marines
@@timogeerties3487 everyone seems terrified of Cynthia, with good reason, but I think soon they will all be just as terrified of Wyatt. Remember he is not a Royal Marine
@@Revittize yup. From believing that their best asset did him in to getting crippled on their own bridge. If that isn't a speedrun to PTSD, I don't know what is. Maybe, he's getting his very own stealth ship to play with
The lone wolf is a tough guy wonder what he will say when he meets Wyatt? Hope Siro Ortega survives seams to show some class. as normal you write a nice chapter here, Tom
@@ThomasRice-p9k I think Captain Siro will be amazed why he wakes up with a splitting headache in a Med-pod… But probably grateful to still be alive… Wyatt beat him fair & square, then allowed him to live…
I can see all the traitors that opted to surrender, be more willing to pledge themselves to Wyatt & Clara, because of the mercy Wyatt did show them… they’ll know- Don’t risk challenging him, it won’t go over well…
@@ThomasRice-p9k he should survive. Siro was fist beaten.... though with armored fists, iirc.
I think anyone who surrendered to Wyatt will survive including all those he told to just drop their weapons and find somewhere to hide.
The mysterious noble with his own armed staff will be interesting, their loyalty to their noble was what made Wyatt stop and aid him and I think Wyatt might want to find out why they were so loyal.
Siro and those with him I am convinced will survive
Clara gave Wyatt the authority to decide who would live or die on the Gallant Venture he made those choices based on what he saw
I suspect that any nobles that Wyatt allowed to live will most likely be offered Parole : a promise made with or confirmed by a pledge of one's honor, especially : the promise of a prisoner of war to fulfill stated conditions in consideration of his release, such terms might include returning to their family estate and sitting out the rest of the conflict.
Some might want to change sides but that would be rare, but this is far more likely with the commoners as we saw previously. Lol maybe Wyatt gets a chef who can help teach him how to make tasty cakes
@@davidorf3921 As pointed out before- the system for Nobles & Commoners is much different, since it’s a succession dispute- Some Crewmen regardless of House’s affiliation didn’t have much of a choice, but to follow orders or desert their posts… So, those spared can renounce their Oaths to Draymore, and return to Loyalist as an opportunity to survive by Pledging to Clara… I agree with Wyatt being the Noble who captured their vessel and stuck to his word of mercy & clemency will carry him far on the respect scale within Both the Commoners & Nobility present that witnessed both his Wrath & Mercy…
The Ship’s Computer record show’s Felicity surrendering the ship to Wyatt, so even Capt. Siro will obey the command of his Senior, after Siro recovers from his spitting headache…
The Wildcard to me, is the Noble Wyatt saved with his act of mercy…
The have met at the negotiating table, and that was sufficient for Maximillian to note Wyatt was an unknown threat even as he got to boast of his status as Lone Wolf for Clara giving her his autograph.
I see a upgrade in rank coming...fell like a bunch of things of past chapters that were to be revealed later are about to come forward. The one I'm looking forward to was the naming of a ship . If this is the last until after the New Year 🎉 then I shall put them all on replay and wait without a heavy heart, but joy knowing this amazing adventure will continue.
I'm with you on that. Ekhidna should take more time for his family. He's given us a chapter every week for almost a year. ( sometimes 2) For witch, we can only say THANK YOU!
I personally think he’ll be promoted to lieutenant commander and also gain the title of Lone Wolf.
In all honesty, he'd have to be promoted. If not, even as nobility, the other nobles would be pissed/envious someone of such low rank was achieving so much. So yeah, he'd need to be promoted to just to keep the social order stable. lol
@@NathanManning-in2fp Im thinking lone wolf slayer like the king slayer on GOT
@@NathanManning-in2fp Wyatt may get the title, but I think he will shun it as he will say,at least to himself, that it was a Composter effort not his alone...D 😎
Wyatt is keeping captain Siro alive? Another possible future allie? Never guessed that would happen. I did guess that Felicity would be very roughed up by Wyatt.
Yes yes yes, he pensado lo mismo. I thought just the same!! And the lone wolf being alive means his contract has been fulfilled. So, him leaving wyatt his fighter as reward?? Granting him the lone wolf status?? Who knows!?!?
@pabloluis6297 let's hope he is as loyal as Gault, could be another great addition to the new house Staples.
Wyatt was forced by Felicity to rough her up(broken nose), but the broken arm was a personal message from Wyatt to Felicity that it would have been much worse left up to Wyatt...D 😎
@@pabloluis6297 Clara has plans for Wyatt and it is not to become a lone wolf , with his accomplishments I am thinking a royal title , whatever her plans Clara has set things in motion for Wyatt .
@@trex4509 sounds like. I also understand lonely wolf being softer of a dead end. Watt is way more suited for a slow rank to admiral given his tactical talent. Lone wolfs are.... line.

Now that Maximilian Userek has been secured, I wonder if he'd be graceous enough to give lessons to Wyatt and the Composters?
They clearly don't need it. Wyatt just needs more experience, and you can't teach that.
@@inspiraPaz Max had the best teachers & mentors money could buy… Wyatt was pure skills… Now, if Max opts to talk and “school” Wyatt, could be interesting…
There must be some interesting reason to keep Userek alive, but I don't know if it's simply to teach Wyatt. Max mentioned a few times about how he wished to go up against Redford in fighters. That strikes me as an indication that it is not clear whether Redford or Max is superior. As far as either of them know, they are peers in capability and if so, within a slight margin either way, Wyatt should be able to be as effectively trained by Redford as he would be by Max.
@@jimpervious_0x2a well, one reason may be just in case. As author you want options for the story to develop...
@@ThomasTomiczek Hello Thomas. I think we're of the same mind. I think there will be some interesting plot points that involve Userek. Even though his character holds Redford in high esteem, which to me means Redford would be equally well suited to help Wyatt gain experience, Redford already has a full time job. Even if Redford is capable of giving Wyatt advanced training and experience, he might just not have the time necessary to do so because of the requirements of his primary duties.
However Userek's presence in the story manifests, I have no doubt that it will be interesting.
The legend grows. Wyatt's the one man assult squad not even waiting for the Royal Marines to guard his back. Cynthia will be proud but will definitely reintroduce him to the floor for his recklessness. She will have to hand him over to the Marines for team combat training.
First give him treats that he so loves along with Clara. I think Cynthia will both be in awe of him and proud the way she trained him.
@@jerrys4841 Yes. But like Dan said, Cynthia would throw him into the dirt for hours.
@@jerrys4841remember Wyatt is still not fully augmented just imagine what he will be able to accomplish when he has all Cynthia’s.
@jerrys4841 first let him have a shower and a nap then some food
_Cynthia_ will be certain bring him back down, right after she and _Clara_ gush on him for a bit. He is still a _work-in-progress,_ but he has come so far.
And Clara is still surprised by Wyatts actions while being praised by Royal Marines
More a case of Clara anticipating the worst of what Wyatt has done to have all 3 Royal Marines praising his actions. Certainly thinking that Cynthia could again be shielding Wyatt from Clara's twisted sense of humour to make Wyatt squirm a bit. Then again, maybe not but a long calculating gaze before pushing over a tray of pastries as both a reward and a warning not to create a crisis with the noble houses beyond his understanding.
@@ashleycampbell6825I can see Clara trying to figure out, then discus the potential Fallout for his actions against Casimir & Felicity… Clara will also be making a Mental Note- “Must be careful on how/what Orders i give Wyatt…” 😝🤣😂
The whole battle brings back memories of the warning Clara got at Woodshaft to be careful how she handled Wyatt.
@@tgriffetts4806 100% agreement. Quite obvious in Part9a how Clara is in a dilemma of balancing between following her Princess planning and her friendship understanding perspective that Wyatt wants and needs to deliver justice with his own hands to protect his friends. He is no longer that frightened child unable to defend and protect his friends. She had to skillfully choose an optimal compromise to mitigate potentially losing Wyatt.
@@ashleycampbell6825 did y notice how the author conveniently had all the GV’s coms jammed so nobody could keep track of Wyatt ?
Simply out freaking standing!
I imagine Wyatt going back to Noirnavio where everyone will want to ask him for details and he'll be like "nah, I'm tired and I have withdrawals from combat stimulants. I'm going to take a nap for a few hours." And he'll keep everyone waiting for 10 hours , before he wakes up.
More likely Clara and/or Redford will order Wyatt to have a rest and recovery period while they sort out so many pressing issues to consolidate their victory. Wyatt will certainly need some of those Royal Marine ration bars to fuel his body and implants.
I keep wondering if he's going to find himself in a real bind because he wears his body out too much.
@ashleycampbell6825 bro had the hardest work out of his life. Not to mention that he was fighting for the all day in his fighter with only a few hours of rest.
Cynthia and Clara eating popcorn while watching Wyatts combat footage 😂
@@Staden_xMaybe Cynthia just knows the Wyatt’s fighter was destroyed. What kind of reaction will you think she’ll have??
OK holy crap. Right so imagine being the most elete of the elete, boarding a ship in a small squad of 3. Now 1 of you would most likely not be able to take the ship alone, 2 would struggle but three it's unlikely to fail. So you make your way though to the command deck coming across battle scene after battle scene and finally you make it all the way to your destination, only to find a single "pilot" haven manged to do something your not sure would have been possible on your own. Keeping in mind you have been trained pretty much from birth and augmented to a rediculous degree. Royal marines might be well known for very rarely praising individuals outside of their rank but I think our boy Wyatte has earned it.
I think the Royal Marines already had respect for Wyatt , but this latest escapade from Wyatt has them shacking their heads in amazement .
Don't forget, he did it all without losing his shields.
@@strategicambiguity8390 Yes speaking of Wyatt's I'm wondering if Jincho doesn't say to him ' maniac you need better shield armor give me a look l will improve ' .
@@trex4509Right, Jincho have him walking around like a pure tank...lol. Shoulder mounted gun, jet propelled boots.....lol
@@PDIDDYSWORLD we need an April 1st episode or smth with this in it we need a petition for ekhidna 😂😂
Perfect ending to this battle. Now for the clean up. Maybe some knitting?
And 🍪🍪🍪🍰🧁🥧🤭
Damm , max alive,this going too get extra interesting
Is “Get Extra Interesting” a nice place to visit?
Delightful, Victory for the Grand Composter!
I truly love this story. I appreciate how the author would rather take his time and present a great story than rush it and produce an inferior product.
I’m so glad that the setups of Wyatt’s Training with Cynthia and Milkades has paid off. Use of his hand guns was great
Clara... 3 Royal Marines shall suffice to take the ship.
Royal Marine... Nahh just send Wyatt 🤭
Thank you Ekhidna for letting Maximilian survive😊
I think he could be a very good teacher for Wyatt
Little Cayston and Felicity will recount the unrelenting terror Wyatt bestowed upon them and I doubt if word of his feats spread around the principality very few will want to face him in battle.
Nice that Clara thinks about her favorite pilot and wants treats for him 😊
.
Now I'm really, really curious how everyone reacts to the security cam's of the GV. They might have to be censored 😅
Very good of the Royal Marines to acknowledge Wyatt's achievement.
I think there will be another acknowledgement coming from them.
I really hope next chapter starts with a reaction from Cynthia to the security feed from his assault on the GV.
The personell training from now on will be even more unrelenting 😜
Now let's wait patiently for the next chapter and a Merry Christmas to all
Very well said. However leave the melee stuff for the Royal Marines. Justice from his own hand has been delivered. Little Cayston and Felicity will be forever quaking in fear at the mere sight of Wyatt's heraldic shield, let alone his actual presence. Cynthia will be quite pleased that Wyatt did not get beguiled by Felicity's treachery and delivered a measured response. A broken arm and a punch in the face should have nicely humbled her for the near future.
Definitely can now wait patiently for the next part while considering how the Author will address the plentiful loose threads from this Chapter.
@ashleycampbell6825 this story is getting bigger and better.
I really hope in the next chapter we will see a update on the prince's fleet and Clara's report on what has been achieved.
They will have to spend some time in the system to get the ship's repaired and Clara will need a lot more crew for her new fleet.
Also the problem with the traitors, Drazzan and rebels on the planet has to be solved.
There's also the question what to do with the cattleship and the human cattle on board. Many of them rebels and pirates
@@ashleycampbell6825 Taking Little Cayston's arm and leg? Actually of all of Wyatt's mayhem and violence on the Gallant Venture I thought his scene with Little Caytson was more like giving a little puppy a pounding. Way past measured response. Well, Casimir was more like a little like puppy that peed on your favorite shirt or something. Wyatt knew (or should have known) the words in the surrender speach were Felicity. Clara: "Bad Wyatt, stop shooting off blueblood limbs". "No more sweet snacks for you".
Royal Marines are really Cyborgs . No biological can stand before them .
@@CJofVivaLV The speech was a death threat to his friends ,his only friends since childhood to Wyatt their is no mercy , the same would have happened if Cynthia was in his spot except Felicity would have also been armless and legless . Remember Maximilian told Felicity not to make that threat and she but Casimir in the front and made the threat .
Revenge is a dish best served cold. - Kahn
Clara, a very happy Princess due to her bannerman doing simply the impossible. Redford, impressed with results that saved not just the Princess, but everyone. Cynthia should be proud that her training made Wyatt a better weapon, but maybe a bit jealous she didn’t get to help? But for me, to have the 3 Royal Marines standing and basically dumbfounded at the outcome?
The Blueblood Wyatt helped with the biofoam! Is he a Firentis? Is he a captured/ransomed son of a house loyal to the Prince? What if he is one or Clara’s other brothers??
Wyatt might have a bit of blow back from the injuries to little Castin and ‘who’s the hoe, now, Felicity’.
She had her own fight. Wyatt may not be ready to go in the den of Drazen without his fighter just yet. Hey cayston and Felicity is alive Blueblood biotech is good enough to get them arm wrestling in no time.
I think she is also excited that the lone wolf lives. She will turn him.
@@craigwolski3588 I thought of him being one of Clara's siblings but it doesn't check out he has gray cybernetic eyes if he was royalty he would have genetically engineered eyes most likely the same colour as Clara
@ you’re most likely correct about not being a Prince. There undoubtedly is significance to this noble being saved by Wyatt, along with letting Captain Siro live. I am not as receptive to Userek being alive though. If he defects to the Princess, great! Maybe his near death will change him.
What if ,he is the youngest brother.
Wyatt's plan to stop 4 black ships and in boarding one of them alone to capture 2 traitors, the prince is going to freak. LOL Well written again Ektidna, much thanks for this part b so soon.
I was so waiting for this I nearly missed the paperwork coming in for my new house! Please do not burn out, or give up on this master class of story telling. If any complain on a delay, or any other issue caused by the real world issues of life, know that it is simply the price of creating a fandom, and crass ignorant fools will always want quantity over substance. Thank you for your exceptional work, it is appreciated! Peace.❤😊
Good luck with your new house.
Ekhidna, take a break and enjoy Christmas with your family. Your story is very good, and I look forward to its continuation after the Holidays.
I mean . . . I don't *WANT* the break, but you're not letting us down if you take a break. I'd much rather the story go on than risk you wearing yourself down and abandoning this.
He should take a brake and enjoy time with the family.
I failed to even consider that in my greed for more. I feel bad now.
A masterful crafting of combat and psych perspective concluding this battle. Ruthlessness in action but tempered by principles by which Wyatt redefines honor and glory through actions. Subconsciously his own standards of nobility are emerging in his mind greatly influenced by his new friendships and ennoblement by royalty. I particularly like the perception how combat action consumes Wyatt's awareness as if time moves slower, when in reality things are unfolding in speeds of reflex and reactions guided by knowledge he acquired through his training and even allowing him to perceive his own appreciation for the lessons he was given and skills he now appreciates.
The captain of the Gallant Venture crew showed real noble standing by his duty, his actions and consideration for his crew. His conviction to resolve the conflict through personal battle, sparing others lives allowed he and Wyatt the avenue to honor both could appreciate.
I was satisfied with how Casimir faced up to Wyatt and was promptly informed Samual Caston was cut down even while challenging a duel under the pretense of honor and glory. Wyatt spared no honor or glory for Casimir but humbled him with pain and injury deserved for wages of pride and pompous conduct, his failure will not be taken well in the Caston family.
You nearly tricked me when Felicity suddenly declared herself author and responsible for Casimir as her ward and offered surrender, but Wyatt took her declaration and plea even as I would have, with measured caution. Already he showed he was cautious before accepting the duel, but Felicity could not curb her deceitful and to proud heart. After declaring surrender and plea for mercy she committed criminal actions to deceive and harm Wyatt and deserved to be put to death, but for his orders he might have killed her for her actions. Just as on the Noirnavio when they captured it, he demonstrated restraint and superior skills dealing her physical pain and humiliation for trying to act out toward him. Felicity has no redeeming qualities to consider, violating her own surrender declaration she has made herself a war criminal and most likely will be held prisoner by Clara and the prince to make an example of upon resolution of the succession of rulership. (Edit: After re-listening to this a few times, it clicked that Wyatt also used a surrender lie to overcome being hunted after Felicity placed a bounty on his demise. If this becomes known, Wyatt may face some criminal charges also, especially from nobles relatives of those killed as a honor issue).
I am glad Maxamillion might yet survive, for this allows some scope of content of honor between combatants and possible alliance discussions yet another 'enemy' perspective about battle and maybe some intel on the enemy forces and resources.
Wyatt once again proves paradoxical for the Clara, Redford, Cynthia, Milkadies, the composter pilots and the royal marines. I would offer another description for them to consider, for Wyatt is quickly demonstrating he is capable of being a phenomenon almost to the point of an outright abstraction of improbability. The compactor pilots now know the value of TEAM work over seeking glory through kills in battle. They have learned also that Wyatt petitioned the princess for upgraded armor on their behalf and that they are getting special recognition for serving aboard Noirnavio under the Aster banner and her knight bannerett Wyatt Staples.
Cynthia, Milkaties and the royal marines have significant combat prowess and well deserved reputations. Wyatt is already someone they have appreciation for and now he takes action that impresses them enough to garner praises from the royal marines when they have seen the result of his daring solo boarding assault and finally capture before they can reinforce his assault. I would love to hear their reports about the battle, how much of the bridge battle they got to witness, what impressions they had of battles they discovered he had fought to get there. I would about die to hear the shared tales between them as others hear the stories. I wonder how much of the information can be allowed to circulate without becoming inconvenient to the prince and the principality under current visions of royalty, nobility and the values of honor and glory in practice. Though I think the prince would do well to capitalize on the multiple Drazzan battles, retaking of the fallen system and Drazzan defeat as a show of his power and conviction to protect the principality even while in conflict with the dukes forces. There is a lot of unhappy news about to unfold in the Duke's plans; further ship losses, high ranking nobles captured, significant victories by the princes and princess where he would not risk his forces.
Wyatt's family might start learning about some of the things he has been involved in and how their lives are destined to be changed along with Wyatt's.
I have raved here a lot, but it is in appreciation of the story you create and share with us. I hear many endorse the idea of a movie, anime, or mini-series but there has not been one instance that conversion has been equal to the original. An author's art and skill resides in the literary depiction of ideas, images, concepts, constructs, and imagination that other forms of media cannot equal because the author allows the reader to visualize the creation individually within the parameters they compose. Other forms of media can entertain, but also restrain you to what they are capable of.
Thank you for another great read. Success and fortune as the year concludes and begins anew.
What an incredible comment
I would like to add to your great comments. I would like a perspective from Captain Siro Ortega and the officer Wyatt stopped and removed the sword from and injected him with biofoam. It would be interesting if a new perspective of honor and respect blossomed from the actions of Wyatt.
well said.
Noiiice.
Hollywood couldn't do this story justice! Even the Lord Of The Rings was cut down to fit 3 movies. It left so much out. Just this chapter would require 2 or 3 movies to come close to doing it justice! HBO could, however, do a mini series! I would have to get a subscription if they did! This story is destined to be a classic!
Êkhidna you Monster of twists 😆
The ending is nearly unbelivable and what a surprise.

This is by far the most engaging audio book to listen to.
Can't wait for more chapters.
Happy holidays, and enjoy your family.
Composters has many significant meanings to Wyatt. It reminds him of his humble pilot days as a compost hauler . He also wants to turn the dreaded Drazzans into compost. As a loyal son of the Principality, he will also turn any other enemies into compost.

Excellent Crescendo and Conclusion to the Taking of the Ship . Cayston and Cintor still alive , but thoroughly defeated . Perfect .
I thought the last episode was good but this episode was incredible, well done to the author another awesome episode
a legend forged in battle
Truly impressive, Wyatt's one man's march thru the ship, calculating each step, every corner and dark hallway. His judgement of the combatants, the care he took between each, sparing many to be Judged by her highness.
Made a response to another couple comments for this. You’re on to something and your fan base is behind you. I’m gonna say it, I can’t wait for the next one.
But, I should emphasize, that I appreciate your pace, and the time you think through it. I’d rather you keep writing the engaging story that I’ve been listening so far, than be berated into producing more content with less quality.
Keep doing what you’re doing. Idk if you read these comments, but I hope that whoever manages the channel and broadcasts your story will relay the sentiment. I think a lot of your fans would agree.
Appreciate you Ekhidna.
Man that was a satisfying conclusion to that battle.
Thanks Ekhidna, your story always makes my daily life a little better! Hope your doing well with your family!
Edit: its more of a personal advice, Ekhidna, after this week's chapter take a break for the rest of this year. Stay with your family and enjoy the festivities. Next year you will have a healed mind and a light weighted heart
Even the Royal Marines are asking. Who are you, Wyatt Staples ! Someone you don't want to make mad! Harold better make a lot of treats Wyatt's going to be hungry! And very vary rich with his own ship to command.
@@steveb6103 They're like: if we had recruited this guy a few years ago he would be one of the big ones
His own ship to command? Do you know something we don't 🤯🤔
He has to get command of the black ship itself eventually. That small taste at the beginning left us all wanting for more of admiral staples!
@quetzelmedina3 well I was expecting him to get command of something eventually, after all there are a lot of Black ships apparently 😏
@@CmdCoddwith more black ships captured they are going to need captains Galt tirome would get One by rank alone. Wyatt could but that wouldn't advance the story much as he would be too tied to ship command . Cynthia not likely either partly as her body guard duties wouldn't allow it and she already admitted she wasn't suitable for that role. maybe capt sero if he can pledge to house Astor as he is a straight shooter
Great job and good luck 👍⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Wow, wow excellent I
What did Cynthia find in the drawn mothership?
Who did Wyatt say last week?
Where’s the princess gonna get all these people she needs to man all these ships
How are they going to clean the planet?
And what is the prince doing during this time?
Can someone please put this in a hard copy book. This will be a wonderful book to have on my shelf. The author is a brilliant writer.
Remember to thank the author for this epicly insane awesome story. I have no words on how much I enjoyed this chapter.
I can’t wait for the next Chapter. Having Felicity Cintor, Casimir Cayston, Maximillian Userek, and Capt Siro Oretga face Clara’s judgement. Second, I anticipate the encounter between Maximillian Userek and his idol, Redford Kalon. Thirdly, I anticipate the encounter between Wyatt and Maxillian. Fourth, I anticipate the reaction from Istonel’s boarding the Cattle Ship (Eternal Garden). Fifth, what did Cynthia find on the Eternal Garden? Sixth, Clara’s discussing Wyatt’s actions on Gallant Venture.
I do not believe the Captain will face Clara's judgement, she gave Wyatt her full authority to do whatever he wanted to anyone on the GV except Felicity and Cassimir (well and the idiot who may or may nor be Drazzan Compost by now). Wyatt decided that the Captain was worth saving, Clara appears to trust Wyatt's judgement so I doubt she will execute him.
Maximilian is in for a bit of a shock now, isn't he! He thinks Wyatt's dead!
@ I hope ekinda does this justice to this meeting. Yep, it is going to be shocker to say the least. Maximillian will think this trickery. Wyatt’s main goal was to get to Casimir not fight Maximillian.
Lol ive probably clicked into here about a dozen times in the last few days just to skip to and listen to when she says it made her smile and dread at the same time lol..
Geez Ekhidna that was absolutely spectacular, you had me on the edge of my seat the whole time, for one god awful moment i thought Wyatt was going to go to far & kill Casimir!, you truly excelled your self with that showdown, what an incredible story you wove!. Thank you for all that you do for us & may you have a wonderful christmas, holiday season.
Thank you, mate! Merry Christmas and happy Holidays!
Masterful writing. This story is the best I have read or heard in many many years
Clara has accomplished everyting she could have imagined after defeating both the Drazan and the Traitors all due to Wyatts tactics and insight
another great episode. you got to love the masterful twists and turns of this wonderful story
Wyatt is taking both the MVP & G.O. A.T trophies today.
mvp, g.o.a.t. Explain, and please don't sat I OBAY to me...

Greatest of all time
And went on a one man rampage, the like of which got a nod from a Royal Marine. You tell me that he's not going to get some kind of trophy.
Two in 24hrs!? LETS GOOOOOOOO!!!!
The next chapter will be out on TH-cam later today. Loyalty is its own reward!
I do love how Casimir refers to Wyatt as a puzzling monster😂. Smart of the 1st enemy group against Wyatt turned off their IFF realizing that Wyatt was tapped into their IFF system. So Wyatt knew where all their forces where by there IFFs. Great job EkhidnaWritez with the combat scenes early into episode 👏 😊. Poor Casimir feeling true dread for his life all because of the stupidity of Felicity 😨. I guess EkhidnaWritez is giving someone listeners what they wanted with Felicity more and more going crazy 🤪 .
I do love how Wyatt takes great satisfaction in killing that marine capian that used his commers just to tire Wyatt and having the glory of killing Wyatt 😊.
I love how Captain Siro Ortaga is like "None shall pass, especially you Ser Wyatt Staples!" 🤣😂 I do like how Siro asked Wyatt how many people he killed and Wyatt said he stopped counting after 5 from the hanger. Then Wyatt tells Siro he has no reason to kill them and only wants Felicity Cintor and Casimir Caystion. That if the surrender, he will plead for their lives to Princess Clara.
I do like the back and forth between Wyatt and Siro its interesting and entertaining. I do like how Captain Siro says he cant abandon his post due to honor and oaths given. this at first makes Wyatt have nothing but contempt for Siro but then he realizes that Siro showed care for the lives under him and that is something Wyatt can use to his advantage.🤔 Siro challenges Wyatt to duel, Wyatt says he’s not good at swords, Siro says he himself also not good with them and challenges Wyatt to hand-to-hand combat!😮 Siro says if Wyatt defeats him the duel by the terms they agree to he will have his forces surrender to Wyatt.
No surprise that Wyatt decides this is the best option he has and accepts Siro’s duel challenge. I did not expect EkhidnaWritez to have Wyatt have a hand-to-hand combat to get to the bridge of the GV as the only way he could do it before the RMs got their.☺ This ends up finally using the brutal hand to hand combat training by Cynthia to full use for Wyatt. I do like the touch of hand-to-hand combat duel has both combatants having their helmets off and how this humanizes the fight even more 13:23. I am not surprised that Wyatt would start truly respecting Siro for maintaining his values but also trying to find a way his subordinates can survive since even if Siro defeats Wyatt, he will fall to the RMs that are coming later. 🤔☺
I do love how Siro says Wyatt has terrible manners in a causal way that was both mocking and respectful. Then how Siro thought Wyatt was younger than he thought and Siro is older than Wyatt thought. Nice pre duel talk. Siro has the advantage of being fresh without fighting all the way to the bridge and has more combat experience. Wyatt has the advantage of being trained by Cynthia and better reflexes mentally. Good job EkhidnaWritez with the hand-to-hand between Wyatt and Siro. I wonder what caused Siro to freeze for a costly moment 17:28 that somehow was connected with Wyatt’s face?🤔 It had something to do with Wyatt’s eyes. I do like how Siro’s subordinates their surrendered with Wyatt’s win honoring their captain and showing respect to Wyatt.
I do like how Wyatt point out to 1 marine that the terms of Siro and Wyatt’s duel was the last 1 standing and not to the death. No surprise that Siro’s forces after that get their captain and leave the area to Wyatt not wanting potentially lose the chance of surviving this ill fated mission.🤭
Awesome job EkhidnaWritez showing the dread of the bridge crew of the GV and Casimir at the sight of Wyatt. I am not surprised when Wyatt says he is only interested in Casmir and Felicity, how everyone other than those 2 leaves the bridge without a second thought!🤣 Poor Casimir should have instead of saying a challenge to Wyatt told him that it was Felicity who forced him to say that speech and he had no wish for killing Clara. Casmir did not deserve being brutally maim him but Felicity got away with only fractured nose and broke arm.😞. Especially when Clara told Wyatt she was not offended by the curd message and that while it was Casmir’s voice saying it, it was Fecitly who, it made and it was her words. Well EkhidnaWritez has twisted sense of humor with just after Wyatt officially accepts Felicity surrendering the ship to him, has the 3 RMs arrive and Wyatt saying the ship is theirs.
Honestly Clara knowing everything about Wyatt she does should have know he would be stupid enough to do something like Ramboing the ship solo against those dare threaten his friends lives and cruelty slandering Clara’s reputation. Clara gets a face palm from me for her rare time of being rather stupid not seeing this coming.😤 I do love how Clara has premonitions of dread after hearing 3 RMs praising Wyatt’s action on the GV and probably realizing she forgot how reckless Wyatt can be with his own life.🤭 Considering how Wyatt’s PTSD get him to do stupid things on the same level as many nobles over their pride and honor.
Wyatt could have easily gotten killed if it was not for S rank luck! If the 1st group in this episode truly fought as an team, they good chance would have killed him or at least injured him significantly. Honestly this Ramboing the GV solo with Wyatt, is the 1st time I feel Wyatt was able to do it not because of skill, equipment or experience but also infamous plot armor. Wyatt should have not able to achieve soloing the GV and getting both Felicity and Casimir.
This way it would help further grow Wyatt’s character and help keep Wyatt from becoming to OP to fast. After all at the rate this story is going, there’s going to be like 2 or 3 more books before the House War is resolved. Instead Wyatt’s power creep is starting to get out of hand and if not keep in better check could threaten the long term sustainability of the series.I am being deadly serious here and not joking in the slightest.😐
Interesting way to end the chapter with Maximilian Userek being too awesome to be killed off due to the many contingency plans he has making his fighter/gunship having the best survival tech in it to survive even getting blown up by Astorian fighter grade weapons!🥳😏☺ Though to be honest it was done in a needlessly complex way and should have had Max eject from his fighter before it got blown up with it being hardened against EMP attacks. 🤔
Gald we are finally on the next chapter in the next video!🥳 Hopefully Redford, Clara and Cynthia next chapter read Wyatt the riot act on doing something so stupid soloing the GV by himself and not waiting for the 3 RMs to aid him. They need to bring this up with Wyatt’s family so together knock some sense into Wyatt, to avoiding going on these death rides whenever avoidable. Because 1 of this times he’s not going to be lucky as he is and will get killed or someone else he cares for killed. 🤔😔
@@Soundwave119 I’m looking forward to the Fallout, of Wyatt’s actions this day…
RM’s- IDK who this Wyatt Staples is or comes from, but Damn Glad he’s on our Side…
Commoners- Who is this Wyatt Staples, he has to be some super secret Agent…
Nobles- IDK who this Wyatt Staples is, but damn glad he’s on our side…
Clara- I I will have to remember to word my orders carefully in the future with Wyatt…
Milkades- Great Performance Wyatt..!!, i do have a couple or few pointers for ya….
Cynthia- Wyatt- What were you thinking..?? But i did see how your moves have improved…
Redford- Wyatt, you’re supposed to be a Pilot, not an RM… although your Paradoxical Attitude & Ways, just needs a bit of honing… (Mentally- I’m damn glad he’s on our side…)
Maximilian- How do you still Live, Sir Wyatt Staples… You beat me fair & square… Now, give me the opportunity to show you your mistakes, I’m filing for retirement again…
Prince- Sir Maniac, you need to slow down… I’m having trouble keeping up because you are slowly outshining even my best Veteran Commanders & Admirals… Your Exploits will be felt far & wide…
Duke Draymore- I think we’ve underestimated the level of Threat this Wyatt Staples poses, and he’s in the service of Clara the Reaper…
Salazar Reid & His Pirate Children on the GV for Clean up duty- You’re saying Wyatt did all this, alone..?? And i was Foolish enough to have issued that man to a duel..?? I’m glad it was non-lethal…
Casimir will need a long time to recover from this, Waytt has broken him so badly, just looking at him will make him go back into the fetal position
@@daghost11 ...and imagine the Composters after Leo tells them what had happend, not to mention the other pilots.
@@Mavo1974 Imagine Maximillian bowing to Wyatt Staples…
@@daghost11 Nah, thats a bit to far, but he will be utterly shocked that Wyatt is alive.
Now he can finally enjoy a glass of Montrello.
On the other hand, I'm curious about Wyatt's reaction. After his comments about Max, I can imagine that he is a bit conflicted about the fact that the lone wolf is still alive.
Ah and what will be the reward for Nultar...
Thanks for the quick follow-up, Ekhinda. Now I have to wonder who was the noble Wyatt saved earlier?
I really want a pair of Soul Snatchers for Xmas 😀 with extra ammo packs
I’m wondering in the Noble is the Son of Sirhan Gimor… who Wyatt made a Bloodoath on… Wouldn’t that make for a twist later… lol
It might be Eris.
He told that unarmed group of commoners to surrender to Wyatt.
The loyalty and care that the 4 commoners showed to the noble suggests that he treats his commoners humanly, unlike most blue bloods. He also survived a dual against a fellow noble over "a slight to his house " He is going to be someone important for sure.
@@daghost11Wishful thinking. I like that twist also! Maybe a 3rd or 4th son of a powerful House.
@@leslieleepack62 I found out that Eris is just a commoner within that group.

The author shows real talent with this series. This series could go on for years with all the possible off stories.
I wonder what Clara will do with the high-ranking nobles. I doubt they would be ransomed at this point, but I also doubt that they could be leveraged to the point of getting House Cintor or House Cayston to surrender. I do think House Cayston may be close to breaking in terms of morale and materials, with one significant battle knocking them out of the war (if they don't just turn tail and run to the safety of the duke).
Maybe an exchange swap for Clara's sister and or brother ?
@@trex4509thinking the same
@@trex4509 OOoooooo, great point
Send Felicity back to the Duke, let him deal with her total incompetence, her actions have lost him multiple black ships and a Lone Wolf and it was all down to her throwing a hissy fit, technically she is probably a diplomat so would be returned. Preferably as cargo on the least space worthy freighter they can find, but I suspect Clara is not that unkind
@@davidorf3921 Her diplomat status would probably be void based on her ordering her fleet to attack the princess and personally attacking Wyatt. In modern times she would be held and probably swapped for someone of equal rank (the USA and Russia trade captured spies all the time). Aside from that I wonder whose wrath would be greater, Clara's or the Dukes?
Saved the princess from an assassination attempt with a trash haulier. Led a whole wing when he was a commoner. Ambushed countless enemies. Defended a station with a single fighter and a temporary commanded ship.
Took down most of the drazzan's fighters... Outnumbered! Swarmed a fucking lone wolf and destroyed enemy morale. And finally, took an enemy ship! What's next? A planet? The entire airforce of the Duke? This wyatt is THE mc we need!
Everything Wyatt has achieved, Master Chief could have achieved, too, and more. Wyatt reminds me of the legendary Master Chief and Noble Six.
@@coalepps8936master chef all the way. 😊
I've been a syfy addict since I was 16 years old this was really uncommon back in the day. I'm in my 70's now and never lost my love of the genre. I LOVE THIS AWESOME STORY!!! Anyone that this reads or listens to this WONDERFUL WORK must admit, with all the GARBAGE...and I mean GARBAGE!!! They make in Hollyweird or the disgusting perverted films made in Disney these days This GREAT story would make for a BLOCKBUSTER of a movie or even a TV series maybe both together! Think about it... no useless Sex scenes or nudity or such bad story lines as to leave you winching upon hear it, and all of which Hollyweird just won't do without these days cause their lackluster Stories have nothing...NOTHING else to offer...all the real writing talent having left them long ago! Give me a woo woo if you agree! We need to give the talented Author greater support, hope and insight! God Bless him in this endeavor, Amen.
Same here I'm 70
Awesome. Once again. Wyatt turned into a real badass hailed by Royal Marines...
Thank you Ekhidna for this amezing story.
Clara ordered Wyatt not to kill them, she never said that they could not be a "bit damaged".
And I hope that Wyatt's price for all this effort will be the command of the "Gallant Venture".
Can you image Redford on the Noirnavio and Wyatt on the "Gallant Venture", commanding the light destroyed as a fighter...
Be scared... very scared.
We had a preview of this in Jintrax when Wyatt commanded the Noirnavio.
Plus, imagine the "Gallant Venture" modified by Jincho and piloted by Wyatt :D
We will have to wait for a new episode after Christmas.
Side note: it will be interesting to see the point of view/performance review from Milkades and Cynthia }:-)
Wyatt on the GV would split him up from Clara and Cynthia though
I think there’s only one qualified to Captain the G V that would be Galt
Yeah I don't think Wyatt's going to be given command of the GV. That would split him up from Clara unless Clara also switched over to the GV, but Wyatt does not have the standing yet to be commander of the Princess's flagship.
Neither Wyatt nor Galt have the rank to command the GV, I believe that needs to be a Lieutenant Commander (don't forget Galt is currently an Ensign even though he has the experience, also they were short crewed already
@@davidorf3921given the docile nature of most commoners and the respect earned by defeating the previous captain, I don’t see a problem with most of the ships crews switching sides. It will not be easy and there will have to be precautions taken; but surely not all of them would be a risk.
Ekhidna, I only have ever been enticed by audio books once before, But My addiction to yours is leagues ahead. Take your Time with releasing parts, for I will be waiting every day for the next, But always knowing they will come someday.
