A.S-[Ad Stella] Year 115

After the fall of the Vanadis group and the witch hunt for Gundams and their pilots, the survivors of the attacks retreated to Mercury where they went into hiding and blended among the miner population on the planet. Whilst they were hiding and avoiding suspicion for the past fourteen years, their research and development of their mobile suits continued on as Elnora and Emily, the two successors of Doctor Cardo, their mentor, would lead the group and slowly continued the development of the Aerial Gundam that Elnora and her daughter escaped to Mercury on. Emily was shocked when she saw that her best friend was the only one able to escape along with her daughter, Ericht, but what she couldn't believe was that it was Eri who managed to activate the Lfrith prototype. However, with how young Eri was when she activated the Lfrith, the data storm was too strong for her child body, and Elnora told Emily that Ericht had passed away. Emily felt sorry for her friend, but what she didn't know was the inhumane tactics and experiments that Elnora stooped into to preserve the Lfrith. While Elnora was welcomed into Emily's group of survivors, she still didn't tell them the whole truth about what happened to Ericht and Lfrith. For the past fourteen years Emily aided her friend in building a new corporation from the ground-up to cover up and further conceal the development of Lfrith, which had now been renamed to Aerial. The two women stayed as close as they could, but ever since the incident, Emily and Elnora never had the same relationship they did before. Emily would barely ever see her friend, and not wanting to let the efforts of Doctor Cardo and the rest of her team die in vain, Emily put the research of the Psycho-frame and her mobile suits on ice until the development of the GUND-Format was completed. Even with her heart and mind redirected to finishing her mentor's wish, Emily found time for herself as she married Casval and had a family with him and her current son, Darren. At the early year of 105, Emily was pregnant with her second child and later that year, she gave birth to a young healthy boy who she gave the name, Y/N. Once she had a new addition to her family, Emily stepped down from the research development group in order to take on a less important role in the group so she could spend time nurturing her young son. Right now, Emily was walking through a field that she knew her son frequented to play in, and was looking around trying to find him.

"Y/N! It's time to go home!" Emily cupped her hands around the sides of her mouth as she walked on a path above the grassy field below.

"Momma!" Emily smiled when she heard your voice call back to her as she looked down at the field to see you run out of the grass patch.

"Your father and brother are waiting. Let's hurry home before dinner gets--!" Emily cut herself off as a surprised look appeared on her face.

When you came out of the grass patch you were playing in, you were not alone as another child had come running out behind you as the two of you laughed while heading to your mother. When and the other child climbed up the hill and ran on the dirt path towards your mother, Emily finally got a good look to see who this child she never met before was. It was a young girl with a familiar shade of red hair and blue eyes that gave her a nostalgic feeling.

"Momma! This is my new friend!" You said to her as you two stopped in front of your mother and the young girl gave her a bright smile.

"H-Hello! I'm Suletta!" The girl introduced herself as your mother was surprised, but returned her a kind smile.

"Hello, Suletta. Were you playing with my Y/N?" Emily asked the young girl.

"Y-Yeah! We had a lot of fun!" Suletta said as Emily patted her on the head.

"I see, thank you for being friends with my son." Emily gave her appreciation as Suletta couldn't help but bashfully giggle from the head pat. "Suletta, are your parents around? It's getting late, and I don't want to send you off home alone." She said as someone else spoke up.
