Earnest Plea

The Statue War had engulfed the Vulcan Empire at a rapid pace. 

Just a month ago, none of the Vulcanites expected their state to descend into all-out warfare.

How could they have known that one of their past actions came back to haunt them in the worst way possible?

To outside observers, the most confounding aspect about this man-made disaster was that the scheme wasn't even that well-hidden.

Anyone familiar with the Larkinson Clan's distinctive mechs could tell that the Vulcanites had been hoodwinked by one of their recent enemies!

It didn't even matter if a significant part of the population and leadership were aware that Patriarch Ves Larkinson was playing them like a musical instrument.

The most brilliant part about this devious scheme was that it worked even if its nefarious nature was exposed!
