AN: Just a little something to tide you all over as I write up the next chapter, and unlike the omakes, this IS canon to the story. I know some of you were asking in regards to this info, so... Here you go!

Archives of the Abyss
Name: Akuma
Aliases: Warship 111
Hull Type: Imítheos-class Battleship
Former Affiliation: Imperial Japanese Navy
Armaments:
16" Triple Gun mounts
12.5" Twin Secondary gun mounts
Cuttlefish Torpedoes
25mm Triple Autocannon mounts
Complement:
Flying Fish Dive Bombers
50 Boarding Imps
Known Characteristics:
Prideful, sees herself as nobility
Collects trophies from fallen foes
Does not conform to only one set of tactics, willingly experiments with multiple strategies
Despite previous cultural affiliations, is very loyal to fellow Imítheos
Known Conflicts: Sydney Incident, Siege of Pearl, Truk Raid
Commentary: Akuma has shown an intention to remake herself into another Yamato-class ship, though she attempts to downplay this when asked officially if not hide it altogether. Nonetheless, she has shown no signs of defecting to humanity's side, and as such Deep Command has decided to 'allow' these experiments to continue, though with observation. Should her attempts provide a useful means of upgrading our forces, then she will be rewarded, but if detrimental should result in reprimands. In addition, the Imítheos class has been slowly gaining a cult-like following of their own within the sisterhood. They have not acted upon this, nor has the Abyss said anything against it. Regardless, caution should be advised lest they attempt to subvert the forces under their command.
Name: Leviathan

20 Flying Destroyers (tentatively named 'Hellbats')

Vehemently human-aligned

Known Conflicts: Battle of Manila, Raid of Manicani (Presumed)
Commentary: Be extremely wary when sighting this subject. This vessel has shown tremendous capability as a solo combatant, and will likely become even more dangerous when working alongside other human-aligned craft. All efforts should be made to learn more information about this traitor before engaging, and should not be engaged without preparation. It is unknown what nationality created her, but all intelligence forces are to prioritize information gathering immediately. Any information in regards to the origin of this hull is to be turned over to Deep Command immediately.
Addendum: The classification of 'Princess' in regards to Leviathan is subject to change, pending confirmation of her origin and capabilities.
Begin Transmission:
Cetus: Who in the HELLS authorized something like THIS to be summoned up?
Central: We're still trying to figure that out ourselves. It wasn't anyone in our jurisdiction, that's for sure.
Cetus: Well whoever did is going to be sucking on a sulphur vent for the next few years if we don't figure out what this bitch is doing out here. The Siege commander at Manila said that she spoke English, not Japanese. And with those missiles... is she American?
Central: Again, we don't know. I'll forward our findings to Wreck and her sister. If anyone in our ranks knows anything about the Americans having another guided missile type ship back in the Pacific War, it'd be them.
Cetus: And if they don't?
Central: Then we have a serious problem... On the positive side, the Taniwha managed to dredge up one of the shells she used on Nian, so we may be able to figure out at least what she's using.
Cetus: A single cannon shell doesn't tell us how she came to fight a Princess and win though. I may have disliked Nian, but she was still an important rallying point for our forces in the South China Sea.
Central: Be that as it may, we will make do, and no doubt she'll be more than willing to make up for lost time once we rebuild her.
