What is clear from the mattresses is 'mafialike': they've "gone to the mattresses" the 'Repel Boarders' order is obviously in effect..."by sea if not by land"

It does certainly look like there's going to be a fight, although the odds are not in their favour...but that does not necessarily mean victory for those who have the upper hand, as we know...but any victory in this will, alas, only delay the inevitable.

God help them.
