In Honor and Duty, we witnessed the war between the Federation and Klingons, a war stopped by the god-like Organians. Then, in Honor and Loyalty, we saw the manipulations and machinations of the Romulan Star Empire, which brought about a new level of tensions between the Federation and Romulans. Now, in The Final Honor, all three sides are on a collision course, with a new, rogue element getting involved.
The years are 2271 to 2274...
Douglas Chambers, a former Starfleet Intelligence agent now in the employ of the Orion cartels, recieves a tantalizing business offer from the Prime Industries, the main criminal and business organization of the Romulans. The deal would bring in hefty profits to the Orions and allow them to expand their operations even further. While Mak, one of the most powerful heads of the cartel, is eager to begin the business alliance, others are more reluctant to do so. They may have good reason, for if average Romulans are known for their hidden agendas, criminal Romulans have hidden agendas within hidden agendas.
On Qo'Nos, home planet of the Klingon Empire, Admiral Rynar's quest to uncover the true killers of his closest friend nears its conclusion. However, his opponent is also scheming and is ready for anything. Meanwhile, Rynar's son Kor has finally set the dishonor of the Organia Incident behind him and has received a new assignment: to track down a renegade named the Albino. His allies in this quest? None other than Kang and Koloth, who along with Kor are destined to become among the greatest warriors in Klingon legend.
On Romulus, Senator Rathelik finds himself trying to ride the currents of several competing plots, but he does not know who to trust. Does he trust Nalum, leader of the Tal Shiar security agency and one of his most powerful allies? Or does he trust the mysterious person who has been anonymously advising him for years and who warns that Nalum cannot be trusted? Rathelik's choice will likely lead to one of the landmark battles in history and nearly to war with an ally.
On Earth, Xander Nelson of Starfleet Intelligence, reeling from a personal loss, must somehow deal with all of this and his own personal issues. Failure could mean the outbreak of total war throughout the quadrant.
The tides are shifting...
The Final Honor...coming July 26, 2004, only at SFC3.net
"We all know why we are here, yes? You, Praetor, along with the Lyran emperor and our chancellor agreed at the Ty'Gokor summit five turns ago that the Federation was the greatest threat to us out of the members of their alliance. The Klingon and Lyran Empires believe it is time to confront that threat head on."
