Drabble 25 – SDF-1

SDF-1.

Super Dimensional Fortress 1.

It was Zor's ship. His very own flagship that he sent to Earth to protect the last Protoculture matrix from those who would misuse it.

When it crashed it showed world leaders that there were greater threats out there than each other and it became a rallying point.

When it folded and took Macross Island with it to Pluto, it became sanctuary for seventy thousand people.

When Dolza came, the SDF-1 defeated his fleet and held within it the continuation of humanity.

Then it stood as a stalwart sentinel.

Harbinger. Unifier. Refuge. Ark. Protector.

SDF-1.
