Newly inducted into the prestigious Order of the "Bat'leth, " Captain Klag, son of M'Raq, leads the crew of the "Gorkon" into the unexplored Kavrot Sector to find new planets on which to plant the Klingon flag. There, they discover the Children of San-Tarah, a species with a warrior culture that rivals — and perhaps exceeds — the Klingons' own, living on a planet that would be a great addition to the Empire. Klag could call in General Talak's fleet to bring the world under the Klingons' heel — but the San-Tarah offer Klag a challenge he cannot refuse. The "Gorkon" crew and the San-Tarah will engage in several martial contests. If the Klingons lose, they will go and never trouble the planet again — but if they are victorious, the San-Tarah will cede themselves to the Empire, and Klag will have singlehandedly conquered an entire world!

The first tale in a glorious adventure that will be remembered in song and story throughout the Empire!
