The Willgem was herded to and unable to move from the front of Queen Dianna's White Palace.
Even after surviving my encounter with the Mahiroo Squad...
...I was told of the "Turn X" and found myself faced with more uncertainty.
It didn't appear to be because of Gym Ghingnham's Challenge.
Rather, It seems the White Doll had responded under its own will, and I don't know why.
The Shocking Dark History
White Doll remembers that Mobile Suit?
Turn X...
Leave the Turn A be.
Why?
That Mobile Suit has motivations of its own.
They're not like your Bandit.
Pilot of the Turn A, are you listening?
A fool like yourself who can't comprehend the true background of the Dark History should hop out and flee!
If you wish to keep your life, come down from the Turn A now!
That means you should bow down on your knees before us, pilot. You'd better do it!
Please stop this! I didn't come here with the personal intention to fight you.
Quit your babbling, you overly-cute fool!
What are these Mobile Suits? Did they dig them out from a lunar Mountain Cycle?
Why don't you stop this!?
Don't you feel the desire to study and contrast the Turn A to the Turn X to one another side by side?
I understand how you feel, pilot of Turn A. No need to worry, I'm gathering data as we speak.
What is this power?
Gym Ghingnham...!
Isn't the role of the Ghingnham Lineage to protect Moonrace and the line of the ruling Soriel family!?
Why are you betraying Queen Dianna?
Quit spouting such crap!
Turn A is the taboo Mobile Suit which was known for destroying the ancient space civilizations.
Wrecking the Turn A is simply another way of protecting Dianna!
And here's a funny little story...
...once, long ago, the Turn X failed to defeat the Turn A in battle!
Therefore, the scar on the Turn X's chest has been resonating, and the unit now aches to defeat the Turn A!
Gym Ghingnham himself isn't the one who hates the Turn A so badly.
Turn X's scar!?
The Turn A started to move, and the X also started moving in response to it...
Wouldn't it be rather funny to watch their systems willingly fight and destroy one another, Laura Rola!?
This man... is losing his mind!
Die together with them, Laura!
Has Gym Ghingnham's prowess left you trembling in fear, Laura Rola?
Why is this woman also calling me Laura Rola?
General...
Did you receive the communication from the White Palace...
..The White Palace!
What? Is this unit's resonation with the Turn A jamming any outside communications?
What's up?
It appears that the Terrans' forces have invaded the White Palace...
Should we counterattack?
Don't worry about them.
They're a force of less than one hundred Earth residents. We can find some way to deal with them later.
Damn that Agrippa... What does he think he's doing!?
They're not here...
Where's Sir Guin!? Where has Lady Lily gone off too!?
Is this a Mechanical Doll elevator?
It's a pretty enormous elevator...
But it looks like it hasn't been used very much.
Find out about the Mechanical Doll's battle!
Capture all of this castle's workers and force them to talk!
There should be some way to reach the other military installations!
There's a passage heading east that'll lead us to a military spaceport!
A military spaceport?
It can't be the one we used to enter here.
- Alright! - Coming through!
So who wants to play guard duty?
Miashei, Please be careful!
Have you decided that you don't love us anymore?
I'm just not used to using a Borjarnon!
Alright, it should be straight ahead.
Is that so? Does this road continue underground?
- What's that? - It's an announcement for the citizens of Genganam...
To all the citizens of Genganam...
All laws which were announced under Dianna Soriel's name during the period of time when she was located on the earth...
...are now considered null and void!
Can that message be transmitted to every citizen in Genganam?
That would be impossible, even for Moonrace technology, whether we had an antenna or not.
This was all originally planned by Agrippa.
Say, Queen Dianna...
Isn't doing something like opening the Dark History supposed to bring disaster upon the entire world?
The Dark History is nothing more than a record of the past.
But doesn't Agrippa believe that all of us will be killed by the curse of the Dark History?
Agrippa was likely being manipulated by Ghingnham.
It appears that the Queen is planning something!
Bring the Gendarme to the Queen's private port in the Winter Palace.
The Gendarme?
That's right.
She's far too curious.
Once she becomes aware of the Lunar Mountain Cycle...
She'll seek to access data describing the Turn A and Turn X's legacy within the Dark History.
When that happens, she will lose control.
Using intimidation tactics and then trying to hide from me?
Reducing my power output to a minimum...
Can they track me, or not?
That radio transmission came from Queen Dianna. She's moving towards the Winter Palace.
Sir Guin, this place feels like it's some sort of weird graveyard...
From the utter silence, and the odd looks of it, I'd have to agree with you.
But at the same time...
It's quite elegant for a graveyard.
It looks like the Winter Palace is still perfectly fine.
Agrippa didn't forget about his duty here...
What exactly is this place?
No way... this can't REALLY be a Moonrace graveyard, can it?
It's the home of the data system, and the hibernation capsules.
Uh, Queen Dianna? - Yes?
Thank you for everything.
To what are you referring?
Back when I saw you crying for me and my father at his grave.
Ahh, you mean when we switched places and I was taken to the Heim's house?
Right.
You appeared to be even sadder than I was.
Oh father, I'm so sorry!
I'm sorry it took so long for me to come back...
It's just that I have been kept so very busy by my work.
I really am terribly sorry, father.
Back then, that was actually Miss Dianna!?
That's right, Sochie.
From that day forward, I was posing as the Queen of the Moon, Dianna.
Dianna Counter then took me back to the Soleil, as well.
You actually did exchange places!?
Back then, it was just a small game we were playing.
but in the end we were unable to exchange our places back.
And because of that, I have come to fully understand Queen Dianna's heart.
Why would you finally tell me something that important at a time like this!?
The time was never right to tell you up until now... Sochie, you...
Then...
The constitutional speech that day in Sunbelt...
The announcement that a nation would not be created by force... Kihel was the one who delivered it?
Correct. Kihel Heim had been trapped aboard the Soleil. Therefore, she wrote the entire speech completely by herself!
How could that be? That speech was exactly what Dianna Soriel would have delivered...
l will now give up this idea of declaring a Moonrace State in the Sunbelt...
...I would like for us all to inhabit this world of our ancestors...
...And so, I will cancel our declaration of a new nation within the Sunbelt, and...
...I will instead request to once again begin negotiations between our Moonrace and...
Back at that point, the one next to me... was actually Lady Dianna Soriel herself!
Then that means...
This girl, Kihel, has been working very diligently!
At that point... It was actually Lady Dianna Soriel as well!
I'm so terribly sorry!
There's no way... How could that possibly be!?
How could the Moon's Queen, who wished to invade us, and my sister end up doing this?
If I had've known that you went through a challenge even greater than fighting Mechanical Dolls...
...I would've had less misdirected anger!
After finally finding your brother, all you can do is hide...
I suppose you don't want Merrybell to discover where you are?
The pilot wants to keep the Canal from being damaged...
He must be from the Moonrace.
He seems to be a tricky enemy, doesn't he, Gym Ghingnham?
Which only makes him a more interesting enemy.
We may have a problem if he forces me to bring out the Turn X's full potential...
That bastard has to have things his way...
Sutero, Sir! You can't go off to the Palace!
What!?
I shall not allow a man who would fight in front of Dianna's Palace to pass!
The only thing you personal Guards are good for is chasing after the Queen's ass!
You DARE speak of Queen Dianna's "ass" so casually...
...YOU BASTARD!?
An ass is just an ass! Something wrong with it!?
It's because of vulgar men like yourself that I cannot support the Ghingnham faction!
Once this matter of Agrippa's Betrayal is over...
The Moon and the Earth will be able to agree to a Cease-fire...
And the people from Earth can return back home to it!
Lieutenant Harry is fighting against the Mahiroo Team!
Then for today, are we to believe in the abilities of the Lieutenant?
It seems as though the Royal Guard forces still on the moon won't be our enemy.
Then it's a good thing.
Assemble into the Clash formation!
With that much damage, such a tactic is impossible.
Once I've damaged your sensors...
What more can you do?
What?
I WARNED YOU!
The Ghingnham Lineage don't appear to have any idea how a real battle is fought...
...Sweatson Sutero!
You may understand the limitations of the Mahiroo...
...But for now, I'll thank you for showing me how a "real battle" is fought!
I got it, that was an excellent moment.
Alright, please let me down.
That Lieutenant really is on our side in this one!
It seems that way. Let's go back, then.
What? It disappeared?
Don't make any careless moves!
He's using his full power to bend light by using electromagnetic waves.
If he's a moon citizen, you can guarantee he won't go very far...
The spaceport is directly connected to the Winter Palace?
Of course it is!
My apologies.
But our retreat will only legitimize Dianna's reinstatement back into power in the eyes of the people.
We've failed.
We were left with no other choice.
We have no way of knowing what course of action that Dianna lover, Harry, may have followed.
Where should we go?
- Have you established contact with the Gendarme? -Yes.
Then we'll take a shortcut.
Isn't this the history data-bank?
I have no interest in ancient history.
You don't say?
But the Turn X and Turn A seem to be connected to the distant past...
They caused the end of ancient history.
And that's the end of it.
Everything that once was...
What's that!?
Follow the Luzianna Militia!
Lady Lily Borjarno!
John, where has Ames gone?
He went with the Inglessa guys. He's inside already.
Miashei, thank you for assisting and taking care of our Princess!
As long as you don't mind loaning me a Borjarnon...
Sochie and I can take care of things like this without any problems.
Oww!
Lead the way unless you wanna get hurt!
Is Sir Guin still here with us?
Yes! Excellent Work, Lieutenant Yanni.
Are we going into the grave yard?
This isn't a grave yard.
Keep your hands off of everything in that room!
What is there to put our hands on?
Did you put traps like holes or a collapsing ceiling in there?
You mentioned the Dark History being stored in this room, right?
But...there aren't even any books in there!
Books!?
That's why l don't want anything to do with you primitive fools.
You're just prejudice.
Lady Dianna Soriel!
You're a man who simply hides on the moon while spouting rubbish about prolonging our lives, Agrippa Maintainer.
Gym Ghingnham is happy that you've granted him the power to enforce martial law...
...and Sir Guin is here for the sake of developing humanity's intelligence.
And yet, the gathering of so many different people with conflicting intentions is bound to cause a disaster.
You should stop and contemplate why our history was called the "Dark History".
If you activated the Dark History after such a huge gap in time, the Terrans probably wouldn't even be able to comprehend it at all!
That's also prejudice.
Once you know something, that doesn't mean you'll just live with that knowledge.
Sometimes, once you know something, it's bound to have some consequences.
What're those!?
It's a view of a space colony that once held millions of people falling on to the earth.
A "space colony"... falling onto the earth?
You mean it's not just a movie!?
This is the record from ancient history.
That ship is flying into space!
These are scenes from the "Universal Century", a period of space wars that occurred after the "Anno Domini".
It's the White Doll and a Borjarnon!
They look a bit different. They appear to be older.
There was once a long history of wars fought in space.
I want you all to understand this fact, and then just try to imagine the result of it all.
These results...
Could these Terrans even imagine what it was like?
Brother, every time I think I've spotted you, I just bump into some 3D projection!
Why these hollow decoys?
No! l thought it was your Turn X that was making them!
So where are these images on the monitor being broadcast from?
The direction of the Winter Palace...?
What!? That Mobile Suit like thing is...
Merrybell, don't be scared of them!
Turn A!
What's wrong!? I can't control this!?
Turn X!
Another showed up!
Interrupted again?
I see... something is playing back this data!
What in the world are those tube like things?
Those were Space Colonies.
Really?
But, this isn't any kind of normal projection monitor!
You're right. We don't have any kind of theater like this in Genganam.
Does Lieutenant Harry know anything about it?
This is an image from the ancient "Universal Century".
What is this "Universal Century"?
Right now, I'm determining where it's being broadcast from.
It's being broadcast from the Winter Palace...
...and I imagine the images are being carried through an unused radio frequency at the transmission source.
These bizzare screens are showing up everywhere in the city...
It must be some big company doing a major visual promotion.
I don't think these are just promotions.
Shut your yap, retrieve the other units, and get them back to our base!
Sir!
Don't you think this is a bit too large-scale for a movie promo?
Could these truly be images of ancient history!?
These things which are known as the Dark History, eventually led to mankind's last war...
...one which lasted for several hundreds of years.
Several hundreds of years!?
That is correct.
If humanity really intended to start their Final war...
...Armageddon, there's no reason that it would finish in a few mere days!
Commander Gavane...
Look and you'll see that no matter what time period it was, the Borjarnon were always active!
I understand...
Dianna Soriel has revealed the Dark History to the Terrans in order to let the citizens see why we can return to the earth...
However, it's not that simple.
Allowing them to know the truth of the Dark History will only reawaken their fighting instinct!
Naturally, in order for us to return, a force of civilian recruited soldiers was already put to use!
My time has come!
I see! So they're saying that the world will turn out just like the Dark History in the future!
Isn't that a good thing?
After the condition of earth and the moon declined...
Life for those who were living on the colonies became unstable.
Many of those space colonies then used the best technology available to migrate out into interstellar space.
This is the period that we now refer to as the Dark History.
It seems like humanity truly has always been repeating the same mistakes...
I haven't yet input the data that was recovered at the Mountain Cycle...
Or the "Turn code" that we received from the units.
Perhaps then we'll...
Turn A!
This data here has only shown us the surface truth of the situation...
But...it says that the Mustached Mobile Suit was used to terminate earth's civilization...
...by using an attack named the "Moonlight Butterfly"!
The Terrans never understood what these images truly meant!
The Turn A spread its nanomachine across the earth, and then these nanomachines...
...turned all of the earth's civilizations into sand, and then assimilated themselves into the earth's surface.
After it had completed that mission, the Turn A was buried within the Mountain Cycle.
It buried remnants from the ancient civilization there as well...
By using this hurricane...
Nanomachines...
So is that the unit's true power?
Turn A was that kind of machine...
And his Counterpart was the Turn X!
This is something that the Winter Palace data doesn't reveal!
Without anywhere else to turn, Midgard attacks the Winter Palace and Queen Dianna.
The White Doll unlocks its undiscovered power and successfully protects them.
However, is this power going to reopen the lost pages of the Dark History?
Next Time ...on TURN A GUNDAM...
A New Enemy
"The wind makes up the light."
A New Enemy
