“This cooperation is but the first step upon the long road to mankind’s true newtype destiny, as Zeon Deikun and my dearest brother Gihren Zabi have long spoken of. Already there are those among us who have developed new abilities of perception and empathy, far beyond those ever witnessed in mankind’s past - these are the first newtypes, the first people of a new age; every year, more and more people are found to have developed these gifts. It is mankind’s fate that <span class="mu-i">all</span> someday will.”
“You too, even born on the Earth, can partake in this common destiny of mankind. Just as our ancestors did when the Federation first forced them from their homes, your children can become Spacenoids, and newtypes after that! You can cast off the gravity of the Earth and live among the stars with us as one! I invite <span class="mu-i">all</span> the people of the Earth to come to the Sides, and Luna, and far beyond - join us in the heavens, and together we may finally move past the division and oppression which we have all suffered under for so long… And to the soldiers of the Federation’s military, wherever you hail from, and to anyone else in the Federation government who feel uncertainty or guilt in their heart, I ask you to lay down your arms and cease any support for the heinous actions of the Federation now taking place within Zeon and Riah! Do not participate in this brutality toward the helpless, do not allow the orders of your superiors to turn you into the same monsters they are!”
There is a long pause before Vivima continues, her back straightening as she prepares for something beyond even what she has said so far, “...Some may see it as merely the cry of a new nation, but the words I will soon speak are for <span class="mu-i">all</span> of mankind. They herald the coming of a new dawn for all of humanity, the time of newtypes and peace among the stars: Cast off the yoke of the Federation, people of the universe! <span class="mu-i">SIEG ZEON!</span>”
Though no one but you and Tryphosa can see her, she <span class="mu-i">salutes</span>, and you find your own arm rising as well - a reflex developed at the academy, but this time…
<span class="mu-s">Vote One:</span>
>You mean it wholeheartedly. Let your father’s name be a rallying cry not just within Zeon, but across all of space.
>You only repeat her shout by reflex, still seeing it as an abuse of your father’s legacy.
>Write-in.
<span class="mu-s">Vote two:</span>
>Hear more messages from the other cadets? This won’t be ALL of them, but will include Izumi, Lino, and Zenna’s messages.
>Nah, that’s enough, move along to Tryphosa, the song, and the beginning of the aftermath of the Dawn Rebellion.
