Summary
- Commander's log entry 5373, IKS Vortha. Commander Kagh recording. As the Federation continues its incursions into our space, we have increased our patrols into our more distant territories, to make certain the mongrel humans seize no more of what is rightfully ours.
Background Information
- The framing story is set shortly after the events of Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, but the main portion of the story is TOS: "Errand of Mercy", as told from the Klingon perspective.
- This issue was published in two variants, the first was a Klingon language version and featured the 22 page story, completely translated into Klingonese and was followed by the script (in English), making for a 40 page issue. The second release was in English, and ran the standard 32 pages (22 pages of story).
- This is the first issue of Blood Will Tell.
- The title of this story is not listed in the issue at all, but was shared by the creators in an interview.
