A blue hair human girl started to fly around in the Weissritter up there, looking for something called "Legalis". As one of the few humans who left the underground colony, she has the... honor to see how much the Crystal Empire has changed since the War and the Spiral Nemesis mess.
While the Order of the Anti-Spiral have their influence in the Crystal Empire, the village she's flying to had no such influence. The viliage in fact wasn't a place for massive Mechanization like the rest of the Empire, but a remote location, where, according to her history, this was where the Turn A Gundam was buried in an avalance, due to the Order's best fighters being unable to bring down the machine and the Spiral Warrior inside the machine. When the War ended, and the Spiral Warrior more or less died by starvation, some of the survivors decide to try to dig it out, to perhaps claim the powerful machine for themselves. However it turned out by the time they tried to free it from the Ice, a woman's voice can be heard, to tell the diggers to leave her alone. Thus the statue stood where it is, and is willing to talk about history to those interested, though the Goddess worship is the last thing the now-sentinate Turn A really needed.
It is here that the girl decided to look for information on Gundam Legalis, as it seems Candance' crusade against anything Vagan has flared up, as she approached the statue...
"A human? How long has it been?" she spoked as the young blue hair girl looked at the Mobile Suit from where she stood. "Several thousand years?"
"Yes..." the girl spoke. "I need to ask... about Legalis... and the current situlation of the Crystal Empire"
"The Vagan Gundam..." the statue responded... "There was only one working model existing... in a vault where the Crystal Heart once stood, filled with other traps... Sombra commissioned one such machine for his greatest Ace, Princess White Sapphire. However, when the Legalis was complete, the Princess was targetted by Celesto, and when her GN-XIV takes on Lightning Dawn's Grapearl, the amount of Spiral Power that came from the mockery of the Winged Unicorn managed to break though the GN Field and outright destroy her." she spoke in a sorrowful tone. "When Sombra was heartbroken from this, he buried the Legalis deeper then the Crystal Heart, with the worst horrors he could conjure up, to make sure no one can destroy it or use it against the Crystal Empire."
She then shifted focus to current politics: "Princess Candance is trying her best to rule the Empire and to make sure the Crystal Ponies move on from fearing Sombra, but some of the nobles up there were planning to crusade in her name to destroy everything related to King Sombra. Her husband, Shining Armor is flying around to see if he can't find EXA-DB, the key part of Vagan Mobile Suits..." she noted this as someone approached the statue with an offering... "But with the Vagan purge, it won't be long until they get though the vault, and destroy Legalis..."
"Alright..." the girl spoke... "To the vault then..." she noted as she returned to the Personal Trooper... "Let's go..."
The Prototype Lagann's engine starts spinning around as Twilight and the others waiting to see if anything weird happened to Twilight's Prototype (d10 roll: 6) and continues to whirr, seems nothing weird's happening, though at this point, she wonders if this is the only time her experimention with stuff will happen without a hitch, but they still wait for further... complications.
Marcus gets the guys to start going from the Huckebein Mk I to the Mk II (5, BHE Retention Roll: 4) with the Mechanics managing to extract the Black Hole Engine from it, as it makes the switch in engines. From there, they begin to work on getting to the mk III (3) and note Marcus not to disturb them as they need to go over some things to be sure it goes right. They tell him to go fetch Derpy and the AM Gunner once Rainbow Dash works her "Ten Seconds Flat bit", so by the time they're done with the mk III, they can try to get to the Huckebein Gunner. In the meantime, they decide to gut the Gespent (5) and feel blessed nothing was blown off by whatever did this, otherwise, they add the parts to the pile and start to repair the Armorlion (3), which could take awhile.
Disassembly of the Gespent: 3x Energy Coupler Devices, 8x Personal Trooper Parts (consumed in the repair of Armorlion), 2x Weapon Parts. Armorlion Repairs: Prioritizing Body first, 8x Personal Trooper parts
Applejack, with thehelp of Rarity to be sure, did some math about the amount of cash she'd be willing to spot Rarity for, and noted since they keep jacking up in a hurry, it'd be a pain for Rarity to go back to Manehattan to try to buy a Brave, only for her to find out they jack it up even more, for her to fly back, get more money and go back to try again, only to find out they jack it up even more. She'd noted it'll be an endless cycle and Rarity, even if she's generous to help, would run herself ragged by the time you guys go out to solve the GN Drive Tau issue laden with the A-LAWs units. Rarity's willing to try her hand at it though, and will wait for you at Manehatten while the others do business in Ponyville.
Rainbow Dash deploys in the AM Gunner, dashing off at her trademark speed between the ship and the training point, taking Derpy along for the ride. Somehow she manages to stop the ship within a few millimeters from smacking into Diamond Tiara's machine, and asks for a request to get the EXAM system off their hands. She starts running her mouth on the rarity of the EXAM System before Diamond Tiara sends a number at Rainbow's end: 350,000 Bits. It seems she's willing to pay whatever to get it off her hands based on Rainbow Dash's claim of it being the only one in existance. Before Twilight left the ship, Rainbow was told the value of the EXAM System was 250,000 Bits, since it was a preminum part. Rainbow Dash, not willing to crank up the offer any further, accepts the deal, making the transfer. She then flies back to the Nahal Argama, using the AM Gunner for the Huckebein Gunner, and gets out just in case something goes wrong.
Lester walks inside the Powered Zeta Gundam and sees if he can't force himself to turn on it's NT-D mode (d100 roll: 72), and doesn't seem to get it triggered. Asking some of the crew to have a go at Zeta (d100 rolls: 85, 93, 100, 94), gave the same result: Nothing.
Alice in the meantime tries to upgrade her way to the Guren mk II, starting from the Burai to Burai Melee Type (4+1), then from there to the Radiation Wave Test-type (3+1) and finally the last leap to the test-type to the Guren Mk II (3+1), all without a hitch.
Kenji goes back to train the others (4), though he's a bit steamed at the moment. Luckly a Royal Guard was there to recharge the Evangelion's Battery, but hey, it's a start to get something out of these Ponies...
Despite jokes about Sweetie Belle's voice being able to be a weapon, Sweetie Belle's accuracy has improved by one step. Babs Seed's starting to get better at aiming, though she's still a high-risk fighter: Accuracy improved by one step.
Clair decides to check out Armor upgrading, just in case they run into a Sniper-type unit, and starts scanning the diffrent units (5+1). She manages to make the following break throughs.
Taking a look at the armor, she can tell Mechanics to temper the suit's Armor to increase it's defence, as well as direct mechanics to paint units with a specialized Ionized Paint, to mimic the Beam Coat. At the current numbers, with some of the crew out to see if the Lagaan doesn't blow up in their faces, they can only do one mech at a time.
