JeffT,
I just read the two initial chapters of your story. Good writing! What I find interesting is how substituting the terms that we all know too well ("Kingdom Hall" with "Gathering House"; "Judicial Committee" with "Review Committee") makes you look at the Borg as an outsider and shows how strange everything is.
Some of us have been indoctrinated from early age and "brother", "Governing Body" sounds natural and normal, while it is the special terminology of a sect.
Good work. Keep writing. You have at least one reader!

Thanks Blue Pill
I've been playing with the language for some time. I think you guys are really going to like the next chapter, which should be up Sunday.

I hope you have fun writing this story. Personally I think it is also a good therapy (not that you need one) to put things mentally in order. It gives you another perspective, creates an interesting distance. The structure would be the same for any other sect, just the wordings would change. Actually, you can see that they all use the same blueprint. Keep writing, I'll wait for the next installment, see if there will be more than a bloody nose.
