Major Appointments

Everyone's attention turned towards the leaders who rejected the proposal.

The pressure on them was immense.

They all had their own reasons to object to the creation of the Red Collective. None of them came to their decisions lightly.

These powerful and far-sighted leaders mainly objected to the proposal for two legitimate reasons.

There were a lot of old-timers who were so scarred by the damage wrought by the Five Scrolls Compact that they objected to giving cultivation a platform.

There were also mechers and fleeters who objected to turning the Red Two into the Red Three or because it would weaken their respective organizations.

Suffice to say, the fact that there is enough momentum behind the proposal that its passing seemed likely did not reassure the naysayers!

It was difficult to imagine that these strong personalities would just roll over and allow red humanity embrace change that significantly damaged their interests.
