In the world of the Royal Guardsmen, there are no words. No foolish speachmaking, no politics, no idiotic diplomacy. Disputes are settled with logic, if they occur at all.
In the world of the so called "New Alliance Freedom Guard", there are far too many words. So much ado about political standing, diplomacy, frantic attempts at contending as a political power in the galaxy.
Two opposites, and yet, in the ready mind of Kir Kanos, two factions who were most certainly not equals. Under the guise of a powerful group of warships, the New Alliance had no real power- for power, not the bravadic facade of the pathetic pretenders, came from the mind. Unwavering courage, unquestioned loyalty, sharp wits, finely honed skill. No unnecessary luxuries, those which allowed the body to grow soft, and the mind foolish.
It had not been propaganda, or flashy displays of galactic proportions, which had allowed Kir Kanos and his partner, Kile Hannad, to wrest control of the Freedom Guard Corporation from the foolish control of Tilaric Brel and Donavin Styx. Yet it was exactly those useless qualities which had allowed this "Greyy Trespe" to rise to galactic significance.
Clearly, fame was cheated, and not earned.
For it was only by luck of the draw, and the power of affiliation, which allowed this Greyy to fulfill his visions of his stolen "Freedom Guard". He seemed to envision himself as the equal opposite of the F.G.C., the Republican reflection of Kir and his allies.
He had no idea, the fool. He was the grime under the boot of Kir.
A silent entry, an unseen enemy, a single unobtrusive vessel, was all it had taken to gain access to Almania. There were no heroics, no glorious battles, for Kir Kanos. Only silent, cold, skillful precision. And for the New Alliance fools? No miraculous discovery of the intentions purveyed by the occupant of that small ship, as it requested and gained landing access to Almania.
Now, as Kir Kanos walked the unsuspecting streets of Almania, completely ignored by others and unsuspected, safely annonymous, only the truth remained, surfacing in the churning waters of the Royal Guard's mind. There would be no glory for the Freedom Guards, now. No more facade.
Only pain.
