The Battle of Steadfast was a confrontation between the crew of Steadfast under Whitson Mariner and the crew of Desolation under Captain Grimble.

Information[]

The Wreck and Rise of Whitson Mariner[]

Following the Betrayal of Vanguard, Captain Grimble took Desolation (formerly Burnley) around Grimble Island to meet his allies the Dragons. When Steadfast reached the stranded rabbits under King Whitson, he selected a skeleton crew to sail her in pursuit of their enemies. After a dangerous voyage along a shorter but more hazardous route, the two ships came in sight of one another. Whitson and his rabbits put on a show of ineffective sailing to lull the crew of Desolation into a false sense of security, all the while laying plans for their confrontation.

When the time was right, Steadfast rammed into Desolation, causing its damaged mainmast to fall onto the deck of the other ship. The enemy crew quickly boarded Steadfast, only to find it seemingly abandoned with blastpowder barrels set to explode. This caused many members of the Desolation crew to jump overboard, until Captain Grimble discovered that the barrels were empty. Whitson and his rabbits then emerged from belowdecks and engaged the Desolation rabbits still on Steadfast.

Upon discovering the deception for themselves, Commander Usher and other members of Grimble's crew who had jumped overboard prepared to return and join their leader. However, they were prevented by a group of archers on the shore of the island, including Queen Lillie and Mother Saramack. After a fierce struggle, Grimble gained the upper hand over Whitson, only to discover that all his bucks had been subdued by Whitson's. Grimble himself was then knocked out by Jimmi Docker, ending the battle.
