OVA
Description
Born into Volder’s royal family on the planet Arst, his infancy was shattered when the conqueror Marder stormed the capital, killing the king and imprisoning the queen in crystalline stasis. Secretly spirited away by Asbeth, a loyal soldier, he was raised under the alias of her grandson to shield him from Marder’s reach.

Trained in combat by Asbeth yet unaware of his lineage, he stumbled upon the ancient mecha Galient at age twelve, buried beneath the earth. An instinctive bond awakened the machine, propelling him into conflict as its pilot. Driven initially by the desire to rescue his mother and reclaim his throne, his purpose expanded as he confronted the war’s wider toll.

Childhood camaraderie with Chururu deepened into romance, anchoring him amid turmoil, while alliances like that of Hilmuka—a human-alien hybrid—broadened his grasp of the conflict’s galactic stakes. These bonds shaped his evolving view of duty and sacrifice.

Marder, once a reviled tyrant, emerged as a reluctant revolutionary opposing a stagnant federation that crushed free will. This revelation forced the character to reassess his enemy, ultimately pardoning Marder after ascending the throne. His rule prioritized healing Arst over vengeance, dismantling the federation’s oppression through reconciliation.

Galient, attuned to his emotions, mirrored his growth: a fiery protector in his youth, then a tool of measured strategy. With peace restored, he entrusted Arst to stable hands and turned his gaze starward, carrying lessons of legacy, cyclical strife, and the fragile equilibrium between ideals and action.
