Faced with Calabast's tirade, Captain Daria-Maria did not respond with heated emotion.
Instead, she remained as cool as a reptile and let a few seconds pass by in silence in order to cool the heated atmosphere.
Ves and Lucky were both completely floored. Man and cat both lowered their jaw in shock!
Neither of them knew much about Calabast's origins. While Ves knew that Calabast used to be a Vraken, he had not been able to extract any further details from her. When a spy did not want to reveal more information, it was impossible for Ves to get her to open her mouth.
Yet in the span of a single heated outburst, Ves had a sense that he was learning about the true Calabast!
From what he heard, Calabast lived a pretty tough life. Even though she was born in one of the most powerful dynasties in the Komodo Star Sector, the Vrakens set insanely high standards to their descendents.
