Ships of War

War is a great beast that bears no respect for anything or anyone. Wherever there is ambition or a desire for power, there will be war. The sea is not an exception; ever since the first sentient race used anything that floated to bring harm to enemies, the ocean became one of many battlefields, and its watery depths are the final resting place for those who fell in battle, sunken ships as their only grave and monument. Warships are as common a sight as merchants and explorers, and captains of any type of vessel must learn to recognise the outline of a ship, for telling friend from foe is a skill that can save many lives on the open seas.
