"Do not be fooled! Can't you see we're being lied to?The Gauna have not really re-emerged!" The old man is shouting as he waves a sign which bares pictures of the several past captains of Sidonia. The pictures span several centuries and reads, 'Immortal Council controlling Sidonia! These are all the same person!'
"Shut up and show some gratitude. Apologize to the pilots!" A workman yells back.
"You fool. You are being tricked. Throw down your weapons! The military must call off this state of war immediately! The gauna have not reemerged. The fallen pilots are just a hoax."

Inside, all garde pilots and pilot cadets, as well as other military personal, are lined up to pay their respects. At the podium below the large print of Yamano Eiko, Captain Kobayashi stands and regards the ranks, her face hidden beneath a mask.
"Yamano Eiko's death should be mourned." She calls out. "However, we will not let her sacrifice go to waste. A Gauna Cluster has entered our warning sector. The gauna once again have threatened us. We cannot communicate with the gauna. The only way to protect humanity is with unconditional force. I have much faith in your dedication as well as your resolve. Dismissed."
In the ranks, Izana keeps their face impassive and calm, as is proper, but their eyes betray their worry as they look about and find themself wondering whom will be the next to die.
