Throughout the crowd, the Jaxtians are joined by the Vetuckers and the Swall- two alien races once exterminated, now returned. This is the first time they have officially been rejoined.
<span class="mu-g">”...Throughout my life and early in my reign, I was convinced of the conviction of our species. The greatness of the Jaxtian people, the single unbroken line of ascension of the Supreme Ruler, it was driven by our very DNA, our blood. And upon wearing the <span class="mu-s">Deathmask</span> and becoming the <span class="mu-s">Unspeakable</span>, I furthered that drive with the extermination of every last one of the parasitical Hazaar. But as with all things, the extreme in one direction will cancel out all the good in the other direction. Even Akule, the first and most terrible Unspeakable, deemed to keep some of the other Jaxtian races alive inside us. I am descended from the Green Face Apes, and I would not be here if the false ideal of purity trumped the idea of what is truly best.”</span>
The aliens inspect each other. None of the Jaxtians in the crowd have seen a living Vetucker. To the Vetuckers and Swall, their memories are much more fresh. Some wince, others are nervous, but the skulls and trophies have long since been put away. You smile, it is time to reveal it.
<span class="mu-g">”During the reign of Wrix Val the Unspeakable, two intelligent species were lost from us forever. He did what he thought was right, but now we have a unique opportunity to explore a new possibility. Something never tried before. That is why I am officially announcing today; now and to the Supreme Rulers in the future- the Vetucker and Swall will be inducted into the Hegemony proper. No longer supplicant species. They will be as the blondes were for Akule. Something different, and yet something precious. I hereby fully pardon your species for their crimes of existence and resistance to your extermination; instead; I welcome you in full. You will be Hegemonic citizens as we are, fully integrated and allowed to rise as how as your abilities are able- with the exception of the office of the Supreme Ruler, of course. For this, I solemnly vow.”</span>
