The Empire Shall Rise

Vulcan Hestal was an ordinary extraordinary man. From a young age, he showed signs of extreme intelligence, which in part was due to his superb memory, but also due to his ability to understand complex equations very quickly. Yet even though he was most likely the most intelligent man to ever live on the planet Earth… no one knew. Born to Bob and Jill Hestal, two ordinary, run of the mil office workers, Vulcan never had the opportunity to fully explore his capabilities. His parents forced him to attend school and would beat him or scold him for messing around with “random numbers”. As such Vulcan, a man with an extraordinary intellect, was forced to live an ordinary life and supress his own intelligence. But perhaps that was a good thing. Afterall with such extreme level of wisdom, humanity may not have been ready to taste the fruits that were created, and perhaps that is why Vulcan died at the early age of 20…or did he?
