So he organized the remaining loyal Tigers into a new cadre. He sought resources. When he found them, like the hafnium, he exploited them. When people opposed him or seemed ambivalent in their support, he had his most loyal Tigers execute them—all the great Marxist leaders had done this, he knew. It was efficient, clean, and ne...cessary. He just had to be patient and wait for the right opportunity. And so he waited. And his time had finally come.

And while he was at sea Vanni had seen the future of his rebellion.MoreLess
