The white alpha was far smarter than its peers. It had to since its unique element required it. Its authority had been useless when it didn't have underlings, so its initial leadership stages had been built on brawns and wits.
That life of struggles gave the white alpha plenty of battle experience. The creature had learned to deal with various opponents and situations. The beast held the upper hand a few times but still rose to the planet's peak. It was Senerth's last overlord, but Khan had arrived to undermine its dominion.
Humans would experience a vast range of emotions at that unlucky event. Getting so close to planetary domination only to face an unfathomable final adversary could fill anyone with bitterness and unwillingness. Yet, the white alpha's limited intelligence worked in its favor, allowing the creature to assess the situation calmly.
