It was morning for the memorial service for the funeral of about 1.5 million soldiers who died at Astarte as it was being held at the strategic planning centre about 100km away from Heinessepolis. Yang by that point after Astarte is still asleep like a drunk person for a hangover at his house.

"Commodore it's almost time to get up." Says Julian like a doting mother hen as he's busy working in the kitchen

Groaning under the blanket sheet. Yang simply says, "let me sleep a little while longer Julian."

Julian comes around the corner saying, "but it's the funeral service and the others are attending. I'm not cause I'm basically injured and won't attend anyways. Basically it's just a glorification of the people that died."

Just as he finished that the television came on and showed Job Trunicht glorifying the death and saying it's a victory.

'It wasn't a victory but a massive defeat.' Yang thought in his mind. He was just apolitical and hates warmongers and the illusion of victory they put over the people.

"Why must 1,500,000 people die for this victory? Because it's our duty to fight against our enemy and overthrow it and destroy its cruelty of its citizens and bring peace to the galaxy! even before the 13 day war on earth and the others before it

"Why must 1,500,000 people die for this victory? Because it's our duty to fight against our enemy and overthrow it and destroy its cruelty of its citizens and bring peace to the galaxy! even before the 13 day war on earth and the others before it." Trunicht says as numerous people dressed in black are there mourning their lost ones.

Amongst them are military guards, along with the vice admirals are Admiral Greenhill and Fleet admirals, Lassaile Lobos and Sidney Sithole, commander in chief of the Alliance navy and the alliance army.

Unbeknownst to everyone one man was walking to the stage. Dressed in black like everyone else because his entire family, except the ones who are still alive in his life alone.

Everyone looks in his direction and even Job looks at him confused. Yang say the screen and saw him, "Harrow?" He says, confused to why he's there.

"Defense Chairman, I'm David Harrow, my youngest brother died at Astarte at the 6th fleet under command of Moore on the Pergammon."

Job was surprised about that. 'David Harrow... the Sleeping Dragon, Goliath of the 4th fleet at Astarte and most of all a thorn in my side." Job thought, he responded, "I'm sorry about your loss of your sibling Harrow.

People turned to him in surprise and realized that he's the hero of the Remnants of 4th and 6th fleet and a saver of human lives and is also seen as a hero with Yang Wen-Li as well.

Harrow speaks, " for me I have a question to give you." Trunicht then responds, "well tell me what your question is. I hope it may be a question I can answer easily.
