What would you do if you had all the money and power in the Consortium? You could use your influence to change lives. You could build better schools and encourage medical advances. Or, if you’re like Hai-Xang Hayden, you could party it all away.
The Hayden family has been known for generations as a respectable, cultured, manipulative and powerful family dynasty. Hayden Bank and its CEOs are the formidable driving force behind the Big Eight ruling companies of the Consortium and, as a rule, they take their position seriously. Born into a family with this sort of legacy, Hai-Xang decided not to play by that rule.
Living a life of extreme excess, Hai-Xang devoted herself to the pursuit of personal gratification at all cost. She might have continued down this self-destructive path indefinitely but for one fateful moment.
In the blink of an eye, everything changed for Hai-Xang and her awakening heralds one of the most important ages in the Consortium.
What would you do if you had all the money and power in the Consortium… at the start of the Bug War?
Be sure to catch every moment of Hai-Xang’s story with our comic, Declaration: The Bug War #1, currently over 200% funded and available through Kickstarter. You’ve only got one week left to see how it all started so don’t wait! [ http://kck.st/2rhxeNQ ]
That’s it for me this week, I’ll see you next Thursday!
