Will they be here...I wonder?
[With another intense engagement against the Balmarians looking like it's just around the corner, Seta decides to make a direct request to her allies in the Kijin Realm. Remembering her talk with Princess Teoria, and more recently the new acting commander of Project Unification, she feels that it's only right. The situation is certainly dire enough to warrant it now.
A message is sent through the Gate at the Gloster Foundation ruins...]

[And half a day later: a stern-looking man in a black coat shows up by Sakihama Base. Despite being the one with the tall and imposing stature, he immediately and humbly kneels before Seta.]
"...You called for us, Your Majesty.
"If I may: to have to make my way here immediately instead of prioritizing the duties to be fulfilled in your stead...we must be on the verge of a truly great battle."
We are.
I have said that the Kijin from that side are not ready to meet with other worlds...not yet. However, out of those I met there, you are one of those I trust the most, Vallar. The same goes for those under your command.
Moreover, you are the fastest to adapt...that is why I require your presence here.
[The male Kijin smiles when he hears this.]
"I am unworthy of such praise.
"As always: we are here, and we await your command."
[Behind the man... are about a hundred white-haired, human-like individuals. They are dressed in blue and gold battle coats - all kneeling before Seta, just like the man who leads them. These are Kijin - lined up like a small medieval army, and even carrying banners to match.
Their numbers aren't exactly impressive compared to other armed forces that will face Balmar's might. But anyone familiar with Kijin would know that gathering even this many is no small feat. The last one to do that was Invicta himself.]
"We answer to the authority of our Holy Empress. All hail Her Divine Majesty."
"-All hail Her Divine Majesty!"
[The Divine Majesty in question suddenly flails.]
...Please keep your voices down...!

"I see. So I am to make an introduction...very well. I have prepared myself for such an occasion.
"I am Vallaris, head of the Kijin Imperial Guard and one of the four Generals serving Her Divine Majesty, Empress Seta. Please call me Vallar. I am 50 phases old, my hobby is disassembling objects, and my favorite food is meat. However, I dislike meat of aquatic nature.
"It is my duty to protect my Empress, but I am also responsible for treating wounds, repairs, logistics and cooking. I am a quick learner. My other tasks include cleaning up after Her Majest-"
-That is enough.
"...But, Your Majesty, is it not proper to highlight all of my responsibilities?"
I said it's enough. Please proceed to the reason you are here.
[Vallar looks disappointed, but complies.]
"We will be providing assistance to Unity Group...no, Project Unification, against all threats that oppose it. Our objective is to protect the Earth and its denizens.
"I understand that the Kijin of our realm may have been your enemies before. But rest assured: this is the case no longer. I am no stranger to the legends of this world, and it is an honor to be fighting alongside all of you."
[He looks over at Seta.]
"...Was that alright?"
[And the response he gets is a thumbs up.]

As Vallar has mentioned - things that are regular to Earth are new to the Kijin. I am sure that they will learn new things from you, even if you act as you usually do.
[While saying this, the Empress nudges her subordinate with her elbow.]
"A-Ah, ahem, yes, precisely. You see...I am also here to learn as much as I can, and chronicle the events of Earth on behalf of those who had to stay behind in our world."

"Do not worry about that. We may not seem like it, but we are quick to adapt. One way or another, it will be useful.
"I am far more concerned about what we will be facing here. The legends spoke of Unity Group as a mighty force on its own, but now it is much larger..."
[The taller Kijin turns to Seta as he says this.]
Well...I do not know where to begin...

"...So this is what you meant by 'any help you can spare would be appreciated', Your Majesty. You know that all four of us would not hesitate to come to your aid had you requested it."
Yes...I do not want to burden you even more. You, Kalash, Cebrail and Memno were already taking care of things for me.
"I understand.
"But against such enemies, we will require the full might of our own forces to stand a chance. That includes withdrawing every available warrior from the lawless regions..."
[Seta shakes her head slowly.]
We cannot afford that.
And...Earth is never alone. Even if outnumbered, it has been fighting battles like these for a long time...
If this is all we can spare without leaving our realm vulnerable, then we must make do with what we have.

[Vallar closes his eyes, looking hesitant.]
"I will do what I am able to, in that case. Since Kei Kugimiya says this as well, I will not reject that wisdom."
