To the Reader, Parts 1 & 2 of Cavaliera Romulana saw our intrepid Enterprise crew encountering 22 Romulan mercenaries who were on their way to become Peace Officers in the Naiobi colonies. These Romulans were all members of the famous Brotherhood of the Sword. After many battles with Klingons, a death—defying rescue of the Enterprise was accomplished single—handed by a mysterious Romulan Shield Lord, one of the 22 mercenaries. The Shield Lord, bravest and noblest of all Romulan Knights, decided to court one of the Enterprise personnel, a young ensign, Patricia Moore. A close bond of true friendship (Darth Ishala) developed between 1st Officer Spock and the Romulan Marayshan and the promiscuous healer-soldier Harith was befriended by the Enterprise's new 3rd Officer, Lieutenant—Commander Alice Morgan.
To find out the identity of the mysteriously hooded, black—clad Shield Lord of the Isithan, read on.
