place immediately after Warning Given.
The Victor Writes History “It was never his wish to become King nor did he consent to return to Sanc. It was arranged without his knowledge.” “We need to stage manage your brother's press. The past will never be forgotten but we can do something about how it is viewed and will be taught as history. After war it is the victor who writes history and we should never forget that. He did not lose, he won and yet he is viewed as the loser, the villain. That was not how my cousin intended the war end. It would not sit well with him that Milliardo is imprisoned by public misinterpretation of the true events.” “There is only so much that can be done. Time is needed to effect change.” “Time heals all wounds?” Dorothy sighed. “True enough but I find it so hard some days to tolerate the outdated ethics of some of the Councilors. They are fossils best left buried in the mud of time.” Relena studied the young woman for a long moment, noting her beauty and remembering her past political savvy and how last they had parted. It seemed Dorothy was willing to let bygones be bygones without any discussion on their mutual past and any misconceptions and misunderstandings that may have taken place. “We have a great deal to talk about.” Dorothy waved a hand negligently. “Later. There is time and you and I were never enemies, Miss Relena.” “No. We were not, but I never understood you and I think you understood me only too well. I was so innocent. Foolish.” “My advantage was being raised a part of Romefeller and being privy to the aspirations of great men and women. Treize had a set agenda to accomplish and he knew who he could trust to aid and abet him and who he simply needed to use.” Dorothy fingered the intricate button concealing the electronic device and sighed. “Mr. Milliardo will be invited to address the Council of Representatives during February. The date is yet to be finalized. There is speculation as to his long term plans and be assured a great deal of attention is focused on Sanc. It is feared other countries will show less reliance on the Council’s reform programs if they see Sanc reborn from ashes. Should progress be seen to exceed the Council’s projections for this region of the Earth local governments will approach Sanc to gain some benefit. The ESUN Council will not wish this to happen.” “They would prefer he crash and burn and Sanc with him.” “They could be seen to pick up the pieces and be assured of their superiority. I cannot see Mr. Milliardo failing where Sanc is concerned. Should he succeed there may be speculation he might be looked upon with great favour. There is a mystique around royalty and few in this day and age with the bloodlines to rightfully claim the distinction. To see Mr. Milliardo succeed would be considered a threat.” End
