I know this story yet I absolutely love hearing it again, for those that haven't heard it yet, the twist at the end is amazing. I'm glad you aren't including the combat chapters because as decent as they are they don't fit the tone of the story that well and they're a little bit too dragged out.

[@Shadow.Dragon]

Good story! More story please! I would love to hear more about the battle tactics used by both sides.

[@taevans609]

Hey you wanted to party the one thing humans are good at War you really shouldn't pick a fight with beings that destroy each other and have been at War for thousands of years

[@blackhornetextingstoryindu15]

Much less that the humans will advanced much more faster in times of war then time of peace

[@zerospace101]

So proposing abolition of slavery was enough for the humans to be attacked by the council? The hell is with these aliens and how do they function if it is that easy to provoke war?

[@mugenokami2201]

Depends on the kind on council. Least one it’s more of a list of who has ftl tech rather than a governing body

[@richardarriaga6271]

Maybe they really loved Robert E Lee and John Wilkes Booth. Or they all made money off it. Even Abe Lincoln was almost assassinated before taking office in 1861 over stopping the expansion of slavery. Look up the Baltimore plot.

[@mcsemark]

Thank you sir, may I have another? Please

[@ballroomdru]

Great story. I can’t wait for parts 3 and 4.

The story is good!, but it is confusing in the battle part; He goes from telling one side to the other so quickly that it is not clear which one is being described.😅

[@lifeofreilly]

If this was written by a redditor in 2019, is the complete story available in digital text form somewhere?

[@jakkittleson5498]

I'm a bit skeptic about the quality of the writing, because it starts in a rather stupid way. you know that the galaxy is full of classist/racist/xenophobic slavers, and you aggravate them all at the same time, knowing perfectly well that they will launch a punitive expedition ? that seems like textbook arrogance and/or stupidity.
Even if you have been preparing for years, that is a stupid plan. play by their rules, come up with a casus belli again someone that you can 100% beat, take them in, grow, militarize militarize and militarize even more, until the point where you can blitzkrieg everyone to pieces, not this arrogant BS.
