Power and Leadership in the Ko-Dan Empire
Xur
Just like your Ko-Dan Emperor's, isn't it, Commander Kril?
[admiring his scepter]
Lord Kril
It takes more than a scepter to rule, Xur. Even on Rylos.
Xur
You're right, Kril. It does take more than a scepter.
Ko-Dan 1st Officer
How long must we endure this fool?
[aside, to Lord Kril]
Ko-Dan Controller
We have a break in the Frontier
Lord Kril
Fire the meteor gun!
Xur
My dear Ko-dan friends, lest we forget! It was your own emperor who granted me command of this armada. For only I hold the secret to the Frontier. Only I know the location of the Starfighter base. And therefore, only I will give the order to fire!
Lord Kril
Forgive me, Xur.
Xur
You are forgiven, Commander Kril. Meteor gunner... fire!
[smirks]
Xur
At last, it is done! Soon the Frontier will be down, and they will bow to their new emperor! Or I will darken the sky with their ashes.
Ko-Dan 1st Officer
Commander, Xurian spy reports that one starfighter has escaped.
Xur
Escaped?!

Hear me, Rylans! When the green moon of Galan is eclipsed, Ko-Dan Armada will invade! Very soon, we shall destroy you all. And not ever your mighty Starfighters will be able to save you!

We shall see, Xur! We shall see!
[defiantly]
Centauri
You still want to go? And miss all the excitement? Little brat! I invent the game, find the kid, drag him up there and he doesn't want to be a Starfighter, I give up!

A Son's Betrayal and a Father's Rejection
Xur
Yes, Father. Your mighty Frontier grows weaker by the moment.
[on image]
Enduran
Do not call me Father! You are no longer my son! You are an outcast! Why have you returned?
Xur
I have returned for the good of all Rylans.
Enduran
With an armada of Ko-Dan warships behind you?
Xur
There are some Rylans who would welcome me, Father.
Enduran
Star League justice put down your Xurian cult! Your followers are few and scattered!
Xur
Star League?! A refuge for weak worlds not worthy to be our equals!
[angry]
Enduran
That is for the Rylans to decide! And not for a dangerous and evil child such as yourself!
Xur
And yet, it is this child who caught your master spy!
