*late in the year 2002, the Mandelovian President-Prime Minister, General Colton D'Goon, struck a deal with the terrorist organization known as the Left Hand. More than just an army of rebels, the Left Hand was slowly making their way into political power in numerous smaller European countries.

I will be reprinting here my Mandelovian/Left Hand related epilogues and interludes, as well as interspersing them with new material. *

Excerpted from a MetaTV news broadcast, dated late August, 2002.
Thanks, Bill. In other news, rumors continue to swirl around that the terrorist organization known as the Left Hand has made inroads into the governments of several smaller European countries.

One country which is currently rumored to have strong ties
to the Left Hand organization is that of Mandelovia, the dictatorship run by Gen. Colton D'Goon. Mandelovia, of course, is still enforcing a trade embargo on US imports, and
has recently come under fire in the U. N. for it's purported treatment of metahumans. . .

Mandelovia
The Office of Gen. Colton D'Goon
There is a knock at the front door.

"Enter."

"General? He's here, sir."

D'Goon stood up from behind his desk and attempted to straighten his uniform.

"Excellent, well what are you waiting for? Show him in, fool!"

"Yessir!" The short young female D'Goon had recently hired as his secretary quickly exited and her voice was heard outside.

"I must remember to better train her in her duties in the future," D'Goon thought as a lascivious smile briefly broke out on his face. It was soon gone, though to be replaced by a
warmer smile as a large man, around six foot six, entered the room. He wore a dark grey militaristic uniform, with dark, round glasses and had short dark hair which was slicked
back on his head. D'Goon noticed that he also wore a black glove on his left hand.

"Welcome, my friend. It is a pleasure to have you and your organization here in my country. I think we can be of mutual benefit to one another." D'Goon said, beginning to
extend his right hand.

"Yes, I think so as well." Baron Zero replied, putting forward his black gloved left hand. D'Goon quickly switched hands and the two men shook.
