"Black Flame? Famed hero?" I asked curiously as my brain whirred into action and scoured my memory bank for "Black Flame".
I got the answer to my own question just as Grand Elder Shella opened her mouth to explain to me patiently.
"Black Flame was a powerful white mecha pilot back in World War 3 when our Federation was at war with both the Empire and the USAA. He was a mercenary serving the Empire at that time.
The Empire was pressing us from the West while the USAA crossed the Pacific Ocean to attack us from the East. As you know, the greatest hero of the war was Russel Whitefrost who created miracle after miracle as he conducted our defensive war from the Capital. He was the only reason why we lasted that long.
However, he wasn't the only hero of the war. There were many others who rose to the occasion during the critical moments which could have broken the war much earlier without their contribution.
