When Ves announced his intention to lead the first contact team and spearhead the talks with the powerful king fish, everyone around him thought he had gone mad!
The reaction against his proposed role was almost uniformly negative!
To them, it made no sense why a powerful and dignified clan leader had to put himself in extreme danger by venturing inside a dangerous pocket space and initiate contact in person with an intelligent alien creature that possessed the size and firepower of a warship!
Perhaps letting him step forward was excusable in the early days of his career and the Larkinson Clan, but that period in his life had passed a long time ago. He no longer needed to put himself in a highly vulnerable position to get things done.
Ves had his own considerations, though. He did not change his mind despite the immense pushback he received from the likes of Calabast, General Verle, Commander Casella and even Venerable Jannzi!
