Lord Richard William Carey and his sister were born and raised on Rigel Seven up until 2260, when Rigel Seven had a similar crisis like the one of Talos IV.

When Lord Charles Andrew Howard JR heard about the crisis, he reminded his first cousin, Lord George Carey about what took place on Talos IV and he didn't want it to happen to his first cousin once removed or twice removed, and Lord George wrote to his son and asked him to place his grandchildren on the next Starship to Star-Base 12.

Lord George reminded his son that his son was also his heir to the Dukedom of Bedford Territory, and Lord Robert and Lady Lettice reluctantly agreed to place their two children on the USS Astral Queen and it transported Lord Richard William Carey and Lady Philadelphia Essex to Star-Base 12, where Lord George and Lord Charles Andrew JR met Lord Richard William Carey who was ten years old and Lady Philadelphia Essex down to Star-Base 12.
