Summary
In a world where Humans and (Pre-reformed) Vulcans co-exist on the same planet, for the past 30 years, the Vulcans have been living with a huge problem. Usually a celebrated (somewhat violent) ritual, Vulcan males afflicted with Pon-Farr have become deadly threats to their mates, with only male-on-male mates able to survive the plak-tow. The Vulcan female population has become decimated, with only 1 female to every 10 males, with few children born since.
Desperate to save his people's already weakened population, Chief Sarek of the Northern Vulcan tribe, seeks the assistance of a new (only 1 century old!) Human settlement; The Kingdom of Kufanikwa. The deal: The Humans receive protection from other human tribes and a myriad of other benefits (and don't go to war with the Vulcans), and the Vulcans will receive 10,000 Human women to add to their numbers, including the King's eldest daughter who is to enter into a marriage with Chief Sarek's heir, Spock.
However, nothing is as it seems. The king, M'Umbha might have a few tricks up his sleeve, and his daughter, Nyota, might not be who she says she is.
