Uh-oh.
Cort will find out, belatedly, that Nyrah and Speck were kicked out in presumably a damaged ship. Or finds out now, if Quel tells him, hoping to keep him calm enough by being transparent. (if Quel can find him at all, if it’s all so classified now, maybe even his location inside the ship is on the need to know basis, and they forgot, or “forgot”, to add Quel to the list)
Either way, I don’t think Cort will be calm about it…

Depending on Federation structure, that commander could be in a disconnected command structure being vicen staff, and so outside of the rank structure.
Different department. He’s a Marshal, not a part of the Federation Navy. I’m not exactly sure how this translates in real life terms, but I feel like it’s the equivalent of Military Police vs the Military itself.

Either that, or they’re about to try to chop his arm off…

I think Quel is finding himself spirit between loyalty to Cort who it has some debt to having made promises and the federation which “seems” to be about to sell Cort out. Its worth keeping in mind that one option for the federation here is to just cut Corts arm off and or kill him if needed to put that star caster on someone they feel they can trust and this is a desperate times/desperate measures kind of situation which makes that kind of thing plausible. I don’t think the federation is actually planning to do that but from Quel’s position… Read more »
It’s also a matter of Cort’s trust.
Quel is probably the only member of the Federation, that Cort has some amount of trust for.
If he feels that trust is betrayed, things might go downhill*, fast.
*They are in space and there’s no downhill, so, I don’t know, down the nearest black hole? 😉

Now I really crave an office/fed-burocracy comedy spin-off of this comic. This just reads like my day with a particularly ornery project X’D
Well, sounds like someone just got drafted.
Quel starting to see where the shit is…well, he is a commander, can’t he just…give the order?
