Sturdy and steadfast mechant captain of the rum trade company called The Crimson Drop.
 
Found Ruyah on his private cellar island, and wanted her off it asap.
Saw benifits to taking her with them, rather than dismembering her there and then.
 
The captain came to like and bond with Ruyah.
 
If shes ever in need of aid, or a glass of fine port- he'll be there to help especially - if theres a neat slice of gold in it for him too
