All of the Cross Clan's expert pilots aside from their patriarch had gathered in one of the observer's rooms of the Primary Cross Lab.
Professor Benedict Cortez invited each of them over in order to witness one of the many live tests performed with the help of a scale model of the Mars Project.
Though the Cross Clan used to retain a much larger roster of expert pilots, many of them had perished during the flight from the Garlen Empire and the major battles that ensued afterwards.
Aside from Patriarch Reginald Cross, only Venerable Linda Cross and Venerable Imaris Cross managed to survive up to the present day.
Both of them were revered in the Cross Clan. They had fought with valor and skill and directly contributed to the survival of the Crossers.
In a clan that already looked up to high-ranking mech pilots, Venerable Linda and Venerable Imaris were far more than mere champions to the Crossers.
