The Tsiombe shipyard was buzzing with activity; a grey overcast clouded the cold concrete jungle of the massive manufactory, and deafening noises of metal clashing against metal echoed throughout the entire city. Along with this, thousands of newly-deployed Malagasy militia stationed themselves within the ex-VEZO shipyard to guarantee no dissidents dared to revolt like their parent manufactory in the North.

Soldiers armed with elite Tanzani weaponry patrolled the walkways of the shipyard as the business executives argued with the officers as to what the future would look like for the Tsiombe shipyard — thought it was a future that they would likely not be involved with, as their association with the newly-crowned terrorist organization that was the Free VEZO Army was more than undesirable for the government-owned shipyard.

But the shipyard still needed to be profitable, and that meant the continual selling of VEZO-made products to international powers, as well as the continual production of said vessels that new government-employed overseers would ensure.
