The Aetanii begin speaking after a moment, the Rakshasa translating.

'In the days when the Rin were young we met. We had been around for many thousands of toshi before they; yet we were not as careless as they were, and are, in the expenditure of our wealth and material. Thus we had only settled our galaxy, while they had had to muster the strength to conquer several. They were, and are, like... rokkasuto, locusts, in the way they devour a world's life and soul.'

Another one picks up, the one the Rakshasa had pointed out: Yuji Sakai.

'We met them when they attempted to settle the fringes of our galaxy, in territory that had been ours for generations. We met, and soon after came to blows once we saw what they did to vibrant worlds, leaving them dry husks. We drove them from our galaxy.' At this point, the Aetanii laughed a bit, before continuing. 'I do not think they expected as much resistance as they were given. They came back with their planet-killers and great machines of war: we destroyed them. We have had constant skirmishes since, but not war. Not since those days.'
