The high minister’s rise to power was a very graceful one but his rule however was far from the peace he promised. The High ministers “career” stemmed from his father’s involvement in the world before the Council Had supreme power. He was born in Tarea and grew up along the coast. At the age of 24 he took a seat on the Council, the youngest man to ever accomplish this.
He stayed on the council for 4 more years till the war started. Not even a year into the war he displayed his difference in view than his other council members. He was kicked out of the council shortly after for his decision to put forth the idea of engaging the enemy with biological warfare. He began to protest against the council and their decision to abstain from a “quick victory”. As the councils influence grew the war seemed at an end. The day the council took over last of governmental rule the wars just stopped. Some say it was because the Council’s rule, but the majority believed what Hughes was saying; that the Council had started the wars to gain power. Hughes was gaining power fast and the Council took note of it and in an attempt to quell him they had his wife killed, though what happened was far from that. Hughes used this in his plight against the Council and won over more and more people.
Three years later another war started, groups of activist aginst the Council were making an attempt to over throw the Council. As the war raged outside his doors Hughes sat and waited patiently. As resentment for the council grew, Hughes’s support doubled. After two years of fighting Hughes came to the public with one demand, let him stop the fighting. The decision came over night as the council was silenced forever. Within the first year of his rule as the newly appointed, High Minister, he ended the wars through the use of his “strong arm tactic.”
He would rule for 3 more peaceful years, before the attempt on his life was made. After this his paranoia grew exponentially, causing him to enforce several new laws and strict curfews in parts of the world. This lead to the growth of protesters which he had an example made of. He was going to have no one challenge his rule and he would silence anyone who attempted to do so.
