Prologue: How it came to this

It was just a blink in Arua's eye, but a lot of things have changed.

Humanity as a whole was no more, torn apart by the ravages of other beings that have desire for conquest.

Humanity, both natural and coordinator; have no choice but to perform the ultimate hardship- leave the divinely blue star that they have called home for millennia- the star they called Earth.

Year 74 of the Cosmic Era: The Earth Alliance Forces, under the leadership of Cagalli Yula Attha of the Orb Union, and the Zodiac Alliance Forces, under the leadership of Lacus Maril Clyne, sign a unification treaty under the premise that war should be abolished and peace, cooperation and unity as fellow humans be acted. Less than an eight of the population were disgruntled.

---

Year 75 of the Cosmic Era: The Geo- Zodiac Treaty of CE 74, as it was known, was formally accepted by all the peoples of Earth, allowing the disarmament of each country and the designation of a unified armed forces- with the purpose to keep the ideals of the treaty. More than thirty coup attempts have been acted, all of them put down without any loss of life. Also in this period was the global order to find and remove N-Jammers was acted.

---

Year 78 of the Cosmic Era: Scientists discovered and refined a new method of propulsion- the first generation Faster Than Light (FTL) engine. Tests on ships have been successful for short runs. In that same year, a space observatory bearing the drive is sent to the edge of the solar system to not just test a long run of the FTL drive, but also to learn more.

---

Year 79 of the Cosmic Era: The last N-Jammer pod was located and removed, ending the planet's nuclear energy crisis and dependence on already exhausted fossil fuels, and overly erratic wind and ocean energies- reactors previously have to depend on acquired (legal or illegal is not my concern) N-Jammer Cancellers or use deuterium to work. In that same year, the first images from the robotic observatory came in, prompting the Deep Space Survey Network (DSSN) to construct a formal observatory at Pluto Orbit, named Vanguard. A mobile suit named Stargazer and its pilot were the key figures in construction.

---

Year 81 of the Cosmic Era: Scientists at Vanguard Station find another relic similar to 'Evidence 01' on Pluto's surface while the robotic observatory was positioned 4 light years away. Later in the year, new planets were discovered, all of them viable for habitation. Clyne and Attha opened the door for exploration and researchers headed out.

---

Year 90 of the Cosmic Era: Discoveries at the new planets suggested that Earth was being monitored, due to the nature of the finds- somehow military in nature. Intense debate about the matter was been made, in the end, no consensus has been made. Clyne is succeeded by Jules Makiviel while Attha remains. Later in the year, a mysterious black crystal was found and was sent to be examined.

---

Year 95 of the Cosmic Era: The research station Hyon was suddenly taken over by a strange computer virus and broadcasted to the peoples of Earth, that an advanced race, called the Selenians, are about to conquer the planet and the message was backed up by a sudden appearance at Vanguard Station of an alien fleet- destroying the station. Geo- Zodiac forces respond, under the command of Clyne herself, repelling the intruders with the help of the forces' chief commanders Asuka, Yamato and Zala. Later in that year, an assembly was held and the general consensus was made- Survival at any cost, even by desertion of the planet.

---

Year 96 of the Cosmic Era: Plans were underway to enact the survival consensus. The Earth- held planets were given outposts and full military complement. The Earth system itself was now being fortified by means of space fortress stations and all related things. As a backup plan, 32 extra stations loosely based on the destroyed station Heliopolis were being built. Attha steps down and Makiviel assumes leadership of both Earth and Space- having both natural and coordinator parents- a taboo during the war. New religions spring up- among them the new modified religion of the Orb Union- the Aruanic Religion.

---

Year 100 of the Cosmic Era: A Revised Geo- Zodiac Treaty was signed, giving rise to the Geo- Zodiac Freedom Alliance (GZFA) - Earth and Space united. The GZFA military was formally founded under the guidance of commanders Asuka, Yamato and Zala.

---

Year 1000 of the Cosmic Era: After centuries of watching, waiting, paranoia and a few skirmishes, the Selenians formally attack GZFA territory, which had grown to about 15 planets, slowly and surely conquering each one. Later in the year, with the Earth in total loss, the remaining 1/4th of the population had boarded the stations built almost a millennia ago- actually they were already inhabited. In the thick of the losing battle for Earth, the fleet, nicknamed the 'Hearts of Arua' departs and escapes, scattered in all directions in groups of 4- 8 'fleets' in total.

That year was also called After Earth 1 or AE 1.

---

Centuries had passed since that day, and a myth and a prophesy emerged, of someone bearing one of the holy names will liberate humanity from their dark days- though the general public have forgotten who those names are, certain families have knowledge of this- one of them was the Yamato Family.

---

AE 1984, Junon Fleet Capital Ship Junon 1, Junon Fleet Capital City Junon Polis, No. 1 Medical Center. A girl with clear violet eyes was born to Vice Chancellor Ai Yamato and her husband Seiji. In accordance to their family custom, apart that the Yamato Family is a priestly family serving Arua, they bestow on their daughter the one name the fitted her shining eyes- one name that they had not used in over 2 millennia.

"From this day onward, she shall be named as Kira, for within her shines the light of salvation that will deliver us from the darkness we are in." Ai's older sister and chief priestess Iya spoke upon her niece's christening.

Little did they know that the wheels of destiny had begun to turn for her.
