Too Fast

The Guardians were under Aiko's command, but she had a large group of people that she recruited from all over the world to be with her in the command center. They had more than enough people so that every pilot had a guide, acting like the Annokale had with the Systems.

The Guardians themselves were all clones except for Eddie, but it was harder to kill than a cockroach, and he was part of me, so if he did die, he would return to me. In a sense, he was like one of my children, just like the sisters were to Tiamat. It was strange to think that way, but it was true that I could just make Eddie a new body and return him to the way he was just before death.
