-nods- All we have is a journal and the fact that Professor Cavor disappeared after it- never confirmed dead or alive.

Said that he stayed on the Moon whilst Bedford returned alone.

That sounds somewhat... debatable.

Well yes- it's been debated because only two people were on the expedition- and one of them returned alone.

...Hmm. Well, the only way anyone could feasibly live anywhere near the moon if they had a Skipjack-class flagship or an equivalent. Where I come from, anyway.

...And that's only because the Moon was actually destroyed at one point during the Calamity War.

You blew up the moon?

Why would you blow up the moon!?

...Well, I'm not entirely sure. It might have caused a shift on the coastlines, but nothing that's too damaging. A good deal of the moon is still intact, anyway.

Yeah, although the tides are probably not the worst of it.

Actually, they really are not the worst that happened in the Calamity War.

Well, a city called Sydney in Australia was reportedly obliterated, leaving a miles-wide crater, and a puncture in the map, if the old Anno Domini maps can show us.

And according to historical records, at the end of it all, a quarter of humanity's total population was killed off. And that's taking in account all of colonised Mars, the space colonies, the lunar colonies and the Jovian mining sectors as well as Earth.

(He punctuates that last statement by counting off each location with his fingers.)

Yep.

It's a wonder we managed to destroy the blasted things. And by we I mean the first legions of Gjallarhorn when the organisation was formed to find a way to destroy them.

Exactly.

In fact, we won so effectively that the organisation itself was placed as the premier defenders of humanity, to prevent a Second Calamity War from breaking out.

And bearing in mind that this all happened 300 years before I was born.

Yeah,

And naturally, my family is one of the Seven Stars, the leading council of Gjallarhorn after the War formally ended. And they were all picked from the 72 pilots that flew the legendary Gundam-Frames into combat.

So, in a way, I was raised in a... 'privileged' family just as you were.

-nods- Though- the difference between you and me is that I got lucky and was adopted.

Dad makes no secret of us being adopted, it's just normal to him.

He let us keep our surnames as well.

Otherwise I'd be Johnny Livingstone.
