Hearing of the stalwart crew of the IKV Black Thunder efforts to raise charity funds at Demicon, the Des Moines, Iowa science fiction convention. The IKV Raptor’s Heart dispatched two shuttles on May 2, 2014 to assist their efforts.
We established a Klingon Court Room in a central location within the hotel and offered a Klingon Jail and Bail to the convention attendees. Many of the Humans took the opportunity to bribe us to report the illegal activities of their friends and family members. Many Tribble Lovers were apprehended that day! And a sizable fund was made available to the convention for their designated charity.
Knowing our arrival times would place us at the Des Moines Holiday Inn well before our coordinated activities were scheduled to begin and keep us there long after, we arranged to offer the Humans present instruction in both the Culture of Qo’noS and in the art of Klingon Cursing. Many Humans were intelligent enough to enjoy these activities and even participated in practicing Klingon Curses . Very enthusiastically!
Both shuttles returned safely to the IKV Raptor’s Heart on May 4, 2014 having confirmed our friendship with our comrades on the IKV Black Thunder.
