Interview #1/2
"Well that day, right before I deployed, my airspace assignment was changed. Initially, my squadron was assigned to the stable eastern front. That was changed to Area B7R, "The Round Table" where casualties were recorded at a fearsome pace. It’s also the place where I met him. It was just two planes: him and an Eagle. And yet our lead force didn't stand a chance against them. I could tell he was good and that it was going to be bad for us, but there was something else I noticed: he hesitated, a vulnerability that can be exploited. I was certain I would win. The pilot was still young; he had yet to master the rules of combat. But in the end, I was shot down."

Interview #2/2
"I fly under the code of knighthood. It’s no surprise since we soldiers are the descendants of the Belkan knights. We protect the meek and give our lives for honor, but that does not mean that we are generous...since generosity will cost us our lives. If the pilot survived at the end of the war, he must've carried out these rules."
