* [[Alien Arts Are Appreciated]]: A Bolian, he greatly admired ''Monet's Bridge Over a Pond of Water Lillies''. He left the painting in a prominent position in the Presidental wardroom, considering it a symbol of all the art and culture of the Federation, which he was intent on preserving.
* [[Flanderization]]: Some accuse later portrayals (such as in the ''[[Star Trek: VulcansVulcan's Soul]]'' books) of flanderizing the relationship between Zife and Koll Azernal, with Zife being an ineffective president relying on scheming Azernal to run the government for him. It is certainly more obvious in ''Vulcan's Soul'' than in ''[[Star Trek: A Time to...]]''.
* [[Government Conspiracy]]
 
Line 341:
== Ruanek ==
 
A lower-caste warrior who becomes an ally to Spock, eventually living on Vulcan, where he embraces a new role as a scholar. A man with a highly personal stake in the Federation/Romulan peace process. An [[Ensemble Darkhorse]], he first appeared in [[Star Trek: VulcansVulcan's Forge]] in a relatively minor role. He proved so popular with readers that he made a reappearance in [[Star Trek: Vulcans Heart]], his role greatly expanded. He would go to appear in several short stories and the [[Star Trek: VulcansVulcan's Soul]] trilogy as well.
 
* [[Blood Oath]]: He swore to avenge himself on the murderer of Shiarkiek (it led to a bit of [[Revenge Before Reason]]).
Line 347:
* [[Honor Before Reason]]
* [[Odd Friendship]]: With McCoy, and with Spock.
* [[You Can't Go Home Again]]: After helping Spock back across the Neutral Zone to safety, Ruanek is unable to return lest he be tried for treason. He's reluctantly forced to make a new life on Vulcan. In later books (the [[Star Trek: VulcansVulcan's Soul]] trilogy), he becomes an academic, and marries a Vulcan healer.
