“I remember the day I first met Blue: Dad was piloting her, laughing at me over how awe-struck I was.
I was blinded by the light of our sun as it reflected off the silver trumpet on Blue’s chest. That reflection soon became a source fierce pride as I was told of the herald of St. Ives being known across the Confederation and beyond, and I was told that she would be mine.
At that moment, I made a promise to my father that if I ever got to pilot Blue: I would only ever use her to protect the innocent and to defend St. Ives: And now I must decide if I will keep that promise… If I will keep my pride…”
