The origins of the conflict between the Roths and the Slaters was a mystery.
Deacon's father swore up and down that it had all begun, because the Slaters did not know when they were beat, and did not have the common sense to respect their betters. His mother, on the other hand, was of the belief that it all just came down to business. The city struggling to hold two powerhouses.
For his part, Deacon had never really given it much thought, but now thanks to his soon-to-be ex-wife. Deacon had found himself pondering the issue more often than not. He finally believed that he had an answer to why the Roths and the Slaters were natural enemies.
