Here the player has the option of firing on either Silver's ship. The other Silver is aggressive, repeatedly ordering Jim to destroy the first Silver. One is happy to see him, claiming he just escaped his robot doppelgänger's prison, and is angry over the other Silver's ruining of his good reputation. Both Silvers recognize Jim, each claiming the other is a robot. Inside the fortress, Jim finds two identical command ships, both commanded by a Silver. Now determined that Silver is not the man he once knew, he pursues Silver to a Pirate fortress. Jim refuses to believe Silver is in league with the Procyons, but is heartbroken as he sees Silver disable a civilian ship and force it into a black hole. After a brief altercation, Silver retreats.
Jim tries to talk to Silver, but Silver denies ever knowing him. However, they are soon intercepted by Silver's Pirate fleet. Jim is ordered to warn the Empire of the Procyon trap.
Meanwhile, it turns out that the command ship of the Pirate fleet apparently aiding the Procyons is John Silver, Jim's old friend. After locating and destroying an Ironclad base hidden in a nebula, he discovers the Ironclads are Procyon vessels, meant to draw the Navy fleets to the Frontier, allowing the "Diplomatic" Fleet to kidnap the Queen unhindered. These bizarre, almost unstoppable, craft are nicknamed Ironclads.Īfter missing out on a chance to join the fleet scouring the Frontier for Ironclads, Jim is sent to investigate Ironclad activity after finding one apparently lost deep in Empire territory. While all known craft are solar-powered wooden ships (Procyons use trimaran designs), these strange ships are made of iron where there should be sails, there are only smoking chimneys. However, on the Frontier, ships begin to mysteriously vanish without trace. They send a Diplomatic Fleet that seems more like a war fleet under the command of Procyon diplomat Evar to Parliament, the center of government and home of the Queen, for the peace talks. The first mission revolves around the final exam, which is invigilated by Admiral Amelia aboard her ship, the Lyonesse.Īs Jim patrols various sectors of the Etherium, Her Majesty's Empire is in the process of negotiating peace with the Procyons, raccoon-like warriors who have been at war with the Empire for centuries. 5 years after Treasure Planet, Jim Hawkins is about to graduate from the Royal Navy Academy.
