Chapter 15 - Introducing Gul Pirak (Patreon)

From what Kira had shared with me, the Bajoran freedom fighters were currently planning to kill someone named Gul Morad Pirak, who was the overseer for this particular Bajoran city and the surrounding farms. Pirak was not a nice man, even for a Cardassian, in fact he'd recently had fifteen Bajoran farmers summarily executed in front of their wailing family simply for not displaying a Cardassian banner, which was really petty. Cardassians were almost universally hated on Bajor, but this Gul was definitely hated a bit more than most. In fact, I vaguely remembered a mention of this assassination in canon DS9, but it was probably some one-off episode.

In my eyes he was yet another despotic Cardassian drunk on his power over these oppressed people and looking for any opportunity to use it. I’d happily pull the trigger on men like that. There had been plenty like that in the Taliban in Afghanistan, tin pot warlords with some tenuous power to harm people, but do nothing else productive or of value to the people they supposedly ruled.
