Thaddaeus - An Order

Vice Admiral Thaddaeus took a few steps back, straightened his back and took a deep breath. Even as an old man, he was imposing; with a stern, wrinkled face, nearly two metres tall in his armored boots, he was someone more fit to give orders than anyone in this system, maybe in the whole sector. -Listen, young lady. I am Vice Admiral Thaddaeus Lord Dembits. Commander of the XVIIth Fleet. The Bearer of the Golden Knightly Virtue Medal. The one known as the Paladin of the Scutum-Crux Sector and the Wrathful Hand of the Order. Behind me lie a battle station and fourteen ships, one of them a carrier, downed by my hand. I have served more than fifty years as a Fleet Knight of the Order. By my authority alone I command, you, Kunegunda. Tell me all that you know.
