The Mesan Alignment is revealed, and, for Honor Harrington and the Manticoran Star Kingdom, this means war!

Unintended Consequences

Sometimes things donā€™t work out exactly as planned.

The Mesan Alignment has a planā€”one itā€™s been working on for centuries. A plan to remake the galaxy and genetically improve the human raceā€”its way.

Until recently, things have gone pretty much as scheduled, but then the Alignment hit a minor bump in the road called the Star Empire of Manticore. So the Alignment engineered a war between the Solarian League, the biggest and most formidable interstellar power in human history. To help push things along, the Alignment launched a devastating sneak attack which destroyed the Royal Manticoran Navyā€™s industrial infrastructure.

And in order to undercut Manticoreā€™s galaxyā€‘wide reputation as a star nation of its word, it launched Operation Janusā€”a falseā€‘flag covert operation to encourage rebellions it knows will fail by promising Manticoran support. The twin purposes are to harden Solarian determination to destroy the Star Empire once and for all, and to devastate the Star Empireā€™s reputation with the rest of the galaxy.

But even the best laid plans can have unintended consequences, and one of those consequences in this case may just be a new dawn of freedom for oppressed star nations everywhere.
