FASTHELD KEEP - The Imperial Navy, once the naval arm of the Emperor's Blades in the early history of the Empire of Fastheld, is to be reformed as the naval branch of the Imperial Watch, the Imperial Crown today announced.
Operating a fleet of new, refitted, and/or refurbished carvels, the Imperial Navy will provide ferry services along both the Fastheld River, shipping passengers and cargo alike to and from the various ports that are situated along the waterways.
Though elaborate for simple ferry duties, the Imperial Crown hopes that the frequent transit of the caravels and their visibility upon the broad waterways that run through Fastheld will do much to curb the presence of bandits, corsairs, and pirates - all of which have seen a notable rise in recent months.
While little was mentioned about the role of the Darkwater Deepers within the Imperial Crown's new agenda for taking on security upon the Empire's rivers, it is expected that while they may retain their privateering status, the sun is now setting on their particular brand of "law enforcement", and the leniency with which they previously operated will be scaled back to that of a mercenary company.
