Miorine Rembran (ミオリネ・レンブラン Miorine Renburan?), is the deuteragonist of Mobile Suit Gundam the Witch from Mercury. She is the President of GUND-ARM, Inc. and the daughter of the Benerit Group's President, Delling Rembran. She is enrolled at the Asticassia School of Technology, of which her father chairs, and is an academically distinguished second-year student in the management strategy department. [8]. Unlike other students, she has no house and lives in her father's old office at the school [9].
Personality & Character
Miorine was the type of person who constantly tried to appear cynical and unflappable in order to assert her independence and never showed any weakness that would make her appear sensitive. She defiantly protested against any attempts to manage her life and make any fateful decisions for her, constantly insulting her father—often calling him "lousy father"—for managing her life or even directly entering into a public argument with him in raised tones. Whenever Miorine felt that a situation was offensive or unfair to her, she always spoke up about it without any attempt to smooth the language [10][11][12].
Refusing to put up with the state of affairs, Miorine regularly tried to escape from the Academy to Earth, or at least manage the life imposed on her [10][11], during which she sometimes showed similar traits to her father, dragging Suletta into her fight against her father without really asking her opinion, or hiring all the members of Earth House as GUND-ARM, Inc. employees, only formally notifying them about it later. Miorine justifiably studied at the management strategy, showing a cold mind, excellent leadership qualities and business acumen [13][14][11][15].
Nevertheless, this was only an external Miorine, behind which there was a someone who was quite capable of sincere feelings and empathy. e.g. Miorine without hesitation fed Suletta her mother's important tomato, simply because she was hungry, without positioning it as a payment for her salvation, making it clear that these tomatoes were very personal to her and symbolize the memory of a deceased parent [10][11]. She also showed genuine concern for her father, literally trying to shield him with her body from attack at a critical moment, only formally continuing to sound offensive [4] This aspect of her manifested itself even in small things; when she visibly faltered when she heard that it was the feelings for her that were the real motivation for Shaddiq's actions [12].
This side of Miorine, perhaps her true personality, was shown only to those closest to her and often in the aforementioned critical situations. A striking example of this was that she decided to step over her pride and ask her father for help only after Prospera caustically mocked her claims to independence despite the privilleges she had as a result of her father [13], or by opening up and confessing to Suletta that she was very important to her only at the very last moment, when the latter had already managed to convince herself that she was an insignificant person whom no one really loved [16].

History
Early Life
At an unknown point during Miorine's childhood, her mother passed away. Her father, Delling Rembran, appeared to be rather indifferent to Miorine's mourning to the point he prevented her from attending her mother's funeral, for which Miorine held a grudge against him. He also forced her to give up any pursuits or hobbies she had, such as learning piano, and she would not have any say in any decisions in her life.
She used to be friends with Shaddiq Zenelli, but they had a falling out prior to the events of the series due to his inaction and unwillingness to trust anyone besides himself.
Prior to Suletta Mercury's arrival at Asticassia, she was forced to become engaged to Guel Jeturk due to the rules her father set up for the academy which dictated that the highest ranking duelist would be her fiancé. Dissatisfied, she attempted to escape from the school on multiple occasions, but failed each time.
A.S. 122
Arrival of Suletta Mercury
In an attempt to escape the school colony, Miorine was waiting for her pick up in space outside. However, the area she was designated to be picked up crossed paths with Suletta's transport which resulted in Suletta frantically decided to “rescue” her in Aerial. In anger, she headbutted Suletta for interfering with her escape and told her that the responsibility falls upon her.
Miorine is forced to return to class and she is approached by Suletta who nervously tells her that she'll 'take responsibility' and help her escape which Miorine attempts to get Suletta to be quiet since she is making these declarations in public. While this is happening, the class is interrupted by Guel's duel with another student who annoyed him by pointing out that he had a 'runaway bride'. Guel's reckless actions put the other students in danger, including Suletta. Miorine pulled Suletta out of the way before she could be crushed. She then proceeded to walk away from the aftermath of the duel out of disgust.
After the event of Guel’s duel, Miorine arrived in front of a greenhouse which she own. At that time, Suletta appeared behind her to say thanks for saving her.
As Miorine gathers seeds, she notice Suletta is still at the front entrance to her greenhouse which she replied to her not to enter. At that time, she could help but notice that Suletta’s growl from her stomach. She offer a tomato to her to eat. While talking, Miorine mentioned that the tomato she grew was from her mother indicating that her mother grew those special tomatoes. The two connected and Miorine offers to give Suletta a map to help guide to her dorm. Unfortunately, Guel and his group came to Miorine arriving at her greenhouse. Guel offered his idea to Miorine to have her stay at his Jeturk house so that she cannot escape and getting ideas going to Earth. But when Miorine disrespect Guel inside the greenhouse
Miorine stole Aerial to duel Guel on her own terms but unable to pilot the mobile suit very well. After being pushed back and forcefully pushed off an edge of a hill Suletta came to the rescue by reclaiming Aerial and fighting the duel for Miorine. Both Suletta and Miorine argue inside the cockpit of Aerial and they are unaware that the communication system activated allowing other students to hear them which caused some of them to think they had some kind of 'falling out'.
After Suletta retakes control of Aerial, Miorine is forced to sit on her lap as the duel is changed back to being between Suletta and Guel. As Suletta readies to activate Aerial, Suletta tells Miorine about a saying her mother taught her, "If you run away, you gain one. If you move forward, you gain two." Miorine listens as Suletta explains that by moving forward, she gains experience and pride along with trust. Miorine then witnesses Suletta use her mobile suit to make quick work of Guel in a matter of seconds.
Miorine is momentarily surprised to see Guel's mobile suit in pieces. Afterwards, she uses Suletta's device to change her attire to that of the Holder. She also informed Suletta that as of this moment that she is now her fiance much to Suletta's shock. Miorine causally tells Suletta that marriages between woman are quite common, but she doesn't plan on forcing Suletta to get married to her. She still plans on escaping to Earth.
Suletta's Arrest
In the aftermath of the battle, Suletta is arrested under the suspicion of possessing a Gundam. Miorine tries to see Suletta, but is turned away under Delling's orders, growing even more furious when learns that her father has decided to transfer her from Asticassia to oversee her marriage arrangements personally. She later encounters Feng Jun, the smuggler she previously hired for an escape, and insists that he take her to her destination. During the hearing, Elnora, the CEO of Shin Sei and Suletta's mother, who goes by "Prospera Mercury" asserts that the Aerial is not a Gundam, arguing that it does not exert pressure on the pilot. However, Delling remains unconvinced of her claims. At that moment, Miorine intervenes, fueled by anger over her father's attempts to control her life. Taking the mantra Suletta had imparted during their duel, she boldly contests her father's decision.
Although Delling appears dismissive, Vim Jeturk successfully sways the assembled inquisition by expressing his desire to restore his company following his son's defeat. Subsequently, Miorine rushes into Suletta's cell to deliver urgent news about an impending duel, warning that a loss would lead to her expulsion from school and the potential destruction of Aerial. She boldly challenges him to a duel, stipulating that if she emerges victorious, both her transfer and the charges against Suletta will be dismissed. Conversely, should Delling win, Miorine agrees to comply with his wishes.
Afterward, Miorine confronts Suletta and informs her that she must secure a victory in a duel or be expelled and prevent the destruction of Aerial.
Rematch against Guel
Suletta is reinstated as a student for the upcoming duel, which is a rematch against Guel. But Suletta hesitates to embrace her role as Miorine's fiancée, expressing her desire to engage in typical school activities, like dating, which she feels would be inappropriate while engaged. Miorine, who is still planning to escape to Earth, discloses that the marriage will not take place until she turns 17. In light of this, she proposes a deal to Suletta, suggesting that the new student temporarily assume the role of her groom until she can devise a plan for her escape. Miorine and Suletta share a moment in the greenhouse when Elan Ceres approaches to exchange contact information, as he will be in charge of the upcoming duel. Miorine feels a twinge of annoyance at Suletta's easy friendliness with the boy who had shown her kindness during her time of confinement. To secure his win, Vim gives Guel the latest mobile suit, the Darilbalde, which features an auto-pilot, disregarding his son's desire to prove himself. Meanwhile, Sarius Zenelli, the CEO of Grassley, becomes wary of Prospera and instructs his son, Shaddiq, to look into Suletta. As the duel begins, the arena's heat management system activates unexpectedly, dousing the Aerial's beam weapons with water. Miorine, noticing Suletta's struggle, attempts to halt the duel due to the mistake, but Elan dismisses her, arguing that duels are inherently unfair and that such support is part of the game. Determined, Miorine hops into a worker unit to intervene while Suletta and the Aerial continue their fight. She quickly finds the emergency control room, scaring off the Jeturk House members inside and shutting off the sprinklers. With her weapons back online, Suletta gains the upper hand. Yet, Guel, unwilling to let an AI fight for him, takes control and battles fiercely, but Suletta manages to defeat him, securing her position at the school and ensuring the safety of Aerial and Miorine. After the fight, Suletta acknowledges Guel's piloting skills, which leaves him infatuated and leads him to propose to her on the spot, leaving her shocked.
Welcome to Earth House
Guel's proposal leaves everyone stunned, including Suletta, who quickly turns him down. The following day, Guel apologizing to Miorine as agreed, while insisting he doesn't love Suletta. Suletta then tries to take a mobile suit exam but fails because she lacks support from a House. Meanwhile, Chuatury "ChuChu" Panlunch from Earth House also attempts the exam but is hindered by bullies who spray her mobile suit's camera. ChuChu harbors resentment towards Spacians due to the discrimination Earthians face. When Suletta seeks help from Earth House, ChuChu drives her away. Miorine, however, agrees to help Suletta, who shares her dream of starting a school on Mercury. The next day, both Suletta and ChuChu retake the exam, but the same bullies have blinded Suletta's mobile suit, and the proctors refuse to let Miorine clean it. After several failed attempts, Suletta breaks down, prompting ChuChu to confront the bullies, leading to a fight that forces the exam to be postponed. Eventually, with some reluctance, ChuChu accepts Suletta, allowing her to join the Earth House.
Elan, revealed to be a genetically modified human designed to pilot Gundams, codenamed Elan-04, is ordered by Peil Industries' leadership to investigate Suletta, whom he believes is enhanced like himself, later contacts Suletta to propose his wager for their upcoming duel: the winner will gain ownership of the Aerial. Miorine chides Suletta for agreeing to the duel without her input, warning that she won't forgive her if she ends up losing. Afterward, Suletta emerge victorious once again, Elan-04 finally begins opening up to Suletta. However, as Suletta waits to meet up with him the next day, Peil Technologies secretly kills him for his failure.
Incubation Party
Suletta, still anxious about Elan-04, receives an invitation to the annual "Incubation Party" hosted by the Benerit Group, a gathering focused on startups. Miorine dismisses her concerns, mentioning that the Holder will have to give a speech, but Suletta is thrilled at the possibility of seeing Elan there. On the day of the event, Suletta and Miorine attend alongside their friends Nika and Martin. Miorine takes the opportunity to explain how the funding process works for new startups: entrepreneurs present their ideas to potential investors, and if they reach a certain funding goal, their business can launch.
Suletta and Miorine encounter Shaddiq, who shares that he and Miorine have a long-standing connection to such events, and later they meet Lady Prospera. Suletta is thrilled to reunite with her mother and introduces Miorine formally. Prospera expresses gratitude to Miorine for her part in ensuring Aerial's survival, playfully imitating her earlier confrontation with her father during the inquisition. After sending Suletta off for a drink, Prospera privately discusses with Miorine the dark truth behind Delling's celebrated image as a hero, specifically his involvement in the Vanadis Institute massacre 21 years ago, which fuels her thirst for revenge. Miorine reflects on how Delling has controlled her life, prompting Prospera to mock her for harboring resentment towards her father while still enjoying the privileges that come with being his daughter. As another proposal is set to begin, Prospera advises Miorine to abandon her "adorable pride." Miorine searches for her fiancée when a new presentation begins, led by the CEOs of Peil. They introduce Elan and Suletta as speakers, and together, Elan and the CEOs pressure Suletta into unwittingly acknowledging Aerial as a Gundam, despite her objections.
Before Delling can pass judgement on Suletta, Miorine interrupts the presentation by storming onto the stage. She highlights Aerial's superiority over machines from Jeturk and Peil and suggests the creation of a new company, GUND-ARM Inc. This company would take over the Gundam projects from Peil and Shin Sei, aiming to resolve the problems associated with GUND-Format technology. Miorine sets a funding goal of 240 billion, which is double the amount she estimates Peil would lose if they simply disbanded their development team.
Despite the lack of investment offers, Delling dismisses his daughter's idea, questioning her ability to execute it. Undeterred, Miorine approaches her father amidst the crowd, earnestly asking to borrow his credibility as President, inspired by Prospera's earlier advice. Delling reluctantly agrees, warning her of the Gundam's heavy curse as he leaves her with 3% capital. This gesture shifts investor interest, allowing her start-up to quickly reach its 75% funding goal. As the event comes to a close, Martin reflects on the new company while Prospera expresses her gratitude to Miorine, confident that her daughter and the Gundam are in capable hands. Prospera and Miorine cross swords briefly. Prospera admits to Suletta that Aerial is a Gundam.
Launching Gund Arm Inc.
At the Earth House dormitory, Nika and Martin discuss the recent incubation party and how Miorine successfully attracted investors for her new company. Just then, Miorine arrives with Suletta, announcing her intention to involve everyone at Earth House in the business, quickly shutting down any complaints.
The following day, the Earth House students talk about their feelings regarding the possibility of working with Miorine on Gundams. Meanwhile, Miorine and Suletta meet with Prospera, who shares Aerial's data to help them understand Gundams better. However, she warns that they cannot mass-produce Aerial yet, as they still need to identify the fundamental issues with the GUND-Format's core components. Suletta talks to her mother about the Gundam, prompting Prospera to explain that Gundams were banned due to people's fear of the unknown, all while showcasing her GUND prosthetic. Suletta promises to protect Aerial and demonstrate its safety. In contrast, Miorine feels unsettled by Prospera's comments.
Miorine realizes they forgot to ask how Suletta can safely pilot Aerial when Shaddiq approaches with advice for their new company. He even suggests taking over operations if Miorine agrees to marry him, a proposal she quickly declines. Suletta concludes that Shaddiq has feelings for Miorine, a notion she dismisses, reminding her that he is an orphan raised by Grassley and is eager to do anything for the company. GUND-ARM Inc. convenes its inaugural staff meeting, with Lilique Kadoka Lipati stepping up as secretary to outline the essentials for launching the company. She reveals that acquiring the Pharact and its development team from Peil has significantly depleted their initial funds, necessitating a solid business plan to attract further investment, with weapon development emerging as a likely focus. This proposal, however, sparks disagreement among the team, as not everyone is comfortable with the idea of selling weapons. The responsibility for the final decision falls to Miorine, who initially has no qualms about the direction. Yet, witnessing the growing division, she decides to compromise, assigning Martin and Lilique to handle the required documentation, Till to create a logo, and the rest to work on a promotional video to enhance the public perception of Gundams, all within a two-week timeframe while she pursues additional research. Miorine watches a video of her father's speech banning Gundams, realizing she needs to understand them and the GUND-Format better. When she meets Belmeria at Peil, she figures out that Belmeria is a "Witch." Belmeria confesses her attempts to replicate Vanadis' work, inspired by GUND's ideals, which intrigues Miorine. Later, in her greenhouse, Miorine reflects on her conversation with Belmeria when Shaddiq approaches her, offering help with her company. He reminisces about their past success in creating a business proposal, despite their parents' disapproval, and expresses his hope that they can build a brighter future together.
Miorine outlines two potential paths for their business strategy. The first involves marketing Gundams as weapons, a concept they have previously explored. The alternative option focuses on advancing the original GUND medical technology, which includes a video presentation by the late Cardo Nabo, the former head researcher at the Vanadis Institute. In this video, he explains the initial vision behind the GUND-Format. Resolving to take this path, they publish the company's poorly produced PV; viewing it makes Prospera laugh, while Belmeria is charmed by the hopeful message.
The group takes a moment to unwind while waiting for Miorine and Suletta to return with food for the party. As they ride a scooter back, Suletta shares her joy that Miorine managed to unite the previously divided members with their business plan. She excitedly notes that it feels more like a club now, allowing her to tick joining a club off her bucket list. However, she soon discovers that Shaddiq has altered the regulations for student-run businesses, halting the development of GUND-ARM Inc. until they can ensure their technology is safe, allowing him to take over when the nascent company defaults to being Benerit Group property. However, Miorine is determined not to accept this challenge passively and considers the option of a duel.
Shaddiq tries to persuade Miorine to transfer control of Gund-Arm to him, claiming it will save the company. However, Miorine realizes he manipulated the rules to create this scenario and challenges him to a team match between Earth House and Grassley House. If she wins, the school regulations will revert, but if Shaddiq wins, he will take control of GUND-ARM Inc. Suletta seeks Guel's assistance, but he reveals he is banned from dueling and is soon withdrawn from school by his father. As the duel commences, Earth House suffers quick defeats, and Suletta's Aerial is disabled by jamming technology. Yet, her strong connection with her mobile suit allows its GUND Format to surpass anti-Gundam defenses, shifting the battle in her favor. Ultimately, Shaddiq catches Suletta off guard, but ChuChu intervenes, securing victory for Earth House. After the duel, Shaddiq questions Miorine about whether things might have changed if he had tried harder to win her love, to which she coldly replies that his regret comes "too little, too late."
Attack on Planet Quetta
Two months after establishing Gund-Arm, Miorine has been actively promoting the company while Suletta and Earth House work on developing prosthetic legs. Miorine also acquires a ship and recruits Feng Jun as a pilot, Miorine deduces them to be members of the Space Assembly League, who are secretly investigating Gundams. Miorine checks on her greenhouse and casually inquires if Suletta has met Elan, mentioning that she has hired him as a second GUND test pilot. This comes after Suletta attempts to explain that she turned down Elan's invitation for a date, suggesting that it's normal for colleagues to get to know each other. Feeling sidelined by Miorine's decisions, including hiring gardeners and Elan, Miorine nonchalantly invites her to join in picking up Aerial, which has been repaired at Plant Quetta. Suletta sadly tosses aside the keychains she had bought.
Earth House arrives at Plant Quetta to collect the newly repaired Aerial, which was damaged in the battle against Peil House. As this unfolds, Suletta becomes increasingly anxious, worried that her friends might abandon her. At the same time, it is revealed that Prospera and Delling are collaborating on a covert project known as Quiet Zero.
Miorine overhears Suletta's talk with her mother, about her worries. After a brief chase through the factory, Suletta opens up to Miorine about her fears and how her motto sometimes fails to ease her anxieties. In response, Miorine erupts in frustration, expressing how Suletta's role as her groom and that very motto have led her to abandon her dreams of escaping to Earth. She reveals how she has succumbed to her father's criticisms and accepted her responsibilities as a corporate leader, yet finds happiness in a life she once vowed to reject. Embracing Suletta, Miorine encourages her to share her thoughts, and when Suletta asks for her support, Miorine insists that she wants her to stay by her side forever, outlining a series of expectations for her groom.
Dawn of Fold suddenly initiates its assault. Under the command of Gundam pilots Sophie Pulone and Norea Du Noc, they detach a section of Plant Quetta from the main station, effectively isolating Delling and separating Suletta from Miorine. Miorine learns that her father was injured by shrapnel during the attack while trying to protect her. As Delling, disoriented, starts to mumble about her mother, Miorine panics and rushes to tend to his wound. Meanwhile, the Dawn of Fold infiltrates the facility, sending foot soldiers to hunt down and eliminate Delling. Back with Suletta, she makes her way to Aerial's hangar, where she meets up with her mother, Suletta finds comfort in her mother's familiar reassurances and resolves to fight for Miorine and their safety. After mobilizing the upgraded Aerial, Suletta swiftly defeats Sophie and Norea just as Dominicus forces arrive, prompting the Dawn of Fold to retreat. Miorine struggles to push her injured father on a stretcher when a terrorist confronts her, intent on killing him. Just then, Aerial and Suletta burst onto the scene. As the terrorist raises his weapon to shoot, Aerial swiftly brings its palm down on him, killing him instantly. Suletta steps out of Aerial, seemingly unaware of the bloodshed surrounding her, declares that she has come to rescue her bride. Miorine stands frozen in shock, her eyes wide with horror as she processes the brutal scene before her, accusing her fiancé of being a murderer.
Post-Quetta Attack
After the attack on Plant Quetta, Miorine is detained at the Benerit Group front as a person of interest in the attack. During her detainment, Prospera Mercury approaches her to try and recruit her to take over Quiet Zero in her comatose father's place, in which will utilize the GUND-Format to gain control over all technology, thereby putting an end to warfare. Suspicious of Prospera after Suletta used Aerial to crush a Dawn of Fold member to death, Miorine then approaches Rajan Zahi to ask him about Quiet Zero; he obliges.
Miorine declines Prospera's offer to take over Quiet Zero from her father, but Prospera captures her interest by revealing that the project was initiated by her mother, Notrette. She explains that data storms, known as the "Gundam's Curse," create advanced information networks that allow Aerial to control enemy mobile suits during battles. Miorine realizes that Quiet Zero aims to harness this technology to dominate any network linked through a Permet Link, potentially granting her father immense power. While Prospera acknowledges the arrogance of this ambition, she expresses understanding of his desire for a conflict-free world and agrees to assist him by sending Suletta and Aerial to Asticassia to further develop Aerial as a key component of Quiet Zero. Miorine confronts Prospera about using Suletta, but Prospera dismisses this as merely helping Suletta achieve her dream of attending school. She voices concern that with Delling incapacitated, the project may be at risk of being halted if the Benerit Group discovers it.
Sitting down for tea with Miorine, Rajan explains Quiet Zero's origins to her. Her mother, Notrette, a botanical engineer, was inspired by how survival strategies inherent to plants might be applied to humans. A dream without much basis, she was nonetheless supported by Delling, who viewed the idea as a hope to end a chaotic and violent world. Miorine expresses surprise that her parents' marriage wasn't just one of convenience, and deduces Delling set up the Asticassia marriage game so someone powerful would keep her safe, as well as to disguise his plans with Quiet Zero. Noting that Delling became so intent on fulfilling his vow to his wife, he was even willing to use the very Gundams he buried, but that Miorine isn't weighed down by any of this, Rajan advises her to follow her heart.
Return to Asticassia
Five days after the Dawn of Fold attack on Asticassia, Lauda Neill informed Miorine that GUND-ARM, Inc. was cleared of suspicions regarding the Plant Quetta attack, and that Benerit Group was selecting its next President.
After returning to Asticassia, Miorine immediately stopped a group of spacian students from bullying the Earth House students. Upon learning that Nika was apparently taken in by the Front Management Company for questioning, Miorine contacted Feng Jun, only to learn that Nika was taken not by the Front Management Company, but by someone else. In exchange for finding out who took Nika, Jun asked Miorine for an access pass into GUND-ARM, Inc., wanting to investigate Shin Sei Development Corporation. Miorine agreed, but asked for a copy of the investigation results.
At GUND-ARM, Inc., Miorine informed the Earth House students that Nika was not at the Front Management Company. The other students then informed her of all the work that had piled up in her absence, but with encouragement from Till, Suletta asked to show Miorine her green house, which she had been taken care of every day as she asked. Just then, Prospera came to visit Earth House. Suletta offered to show her around, but Prospera asked her to stay with her bride.
In the green house, Miorine apologized for calling Suletta a murderer, saying that she knew Suletta acted to protect her. Much to her shock, this caused Suletta to become even more convinced at her mother's words that what she did was right. Disturbed at Suletta's smile, Miorine asked Suletta if she would give up her dream of building a school at Mercury or commit murder again if she said so. When Suletta said yes to both, she ran off.
At Aerial's hangar, Miorine angrily confronted Prospera, saying that she would not allow her to control Suletta anymore. However, Prospera revealed that Miorine's father, Delling, was her enemy for orchestrating the Vanadis Incident and killing her husband, teacher, and friends, leaving only her and her daughter alive. Though shocked by the revelation, Miorine insisted that Prospera leave Suletta out of her revenge. Prospera agreed, in exchange for her help in saving Quiet Zero from discontinuation by becoming the new President of Benerit Group. When Miorine agreed, Prospera added another condition: have Suletta fight in one last duel.
Final Duel
As Miorine's 17th birthday neared, Suletta tried to apologize for their earlier conversation. Miorine asked her if she would give up Aerial if she asked her to. Though somewhat hesitant, Suletta said she would not, because Aerial was her family. Though Suletta was excited about celebrating Miorine's birthday, Miorine remained cold and distant.
After overhearing Suletta and Guel's conversation at the greenhouse and learning that Guel wanted to revitalize Jeturk Heavy Machinery, Miorine asked Suletta to duel Guel for her birthday present. Later, at Miorine's room, Guel told her that he could not duel again. However, she revealed to she intended to let him win, so that the Jeturk Company would back her in her bid to become the Benerit Group's president. Support from the Group also meant that Jeturk Heavy Machinery could be revitalized.
At the Dueling Committee, at Miorine's instruction, Guel challenged Suletta with Aerial at stake. Though Suletta was surprised that Guel wanted to take Aerial, she accepted at Miorine's encouragement. Later, Guel asked Miorine if what she said about Suletta's mother was true, she confirmed that Suletta would obey anything her mother said and that she wanted Suletta to live in a world where she was not bound by Gundam or anything else. Guel replied that such a world did not exist before changing the subject and asking Miorine for a pair of scissors and an electric shaver for his hair.
Before the duel, Miorine installed a "victory charm" app onto Suletta's student handbook, with the icon being the two key chains that Suletta gifted her. Unbeknownst to Suletta, the app was actually given to Miorine by Prospera, and was connected to Aerial.
During the duel, Guel, piloting an upgraded Darilbalde, fought the Aerial, whose damage during Rumble Ring was still not repaired. Though Guel was traumatized by the events of Plant Quetta, he still fought as hard as he could, even making use of Darilbalde's AI, which he had a distaste for. However, after the Darilbalde destroyed Aerial's left arm, it activated Permet Score 6 and took control of Darilbalde's Iśvara drones. Aerial's shell unit then began to glow white, which Prospera took notice of; Prospera then sent her signal to Miorine.
Just as Aerial was about to finish Darilbalde with the GUND-BIT Rifle, Miorine activated the app, causing Aerial to deactivate. Guel immediately sliced off one of Aerial's blade antennas, causing Suletta to lose the duel. As Suletta was still in shock, Miorine drove to the testing sector and opened Aerial's cockpit.
As Suletta desperately tried to explain that Aerial stopped moving, Miorine revealed that she made Suletta lose the duel and that her deal with Suletta was finished. She then returned the key chain that Suletta gifted her and deactivated the colors of her holder uniform, before bidding farewell to the "Mercurian country bumpkin".
Quinharbor Incident
As Shaddiq leading in the election polls and Guel struggling to rebuild his company, Prospera proposes to Miorine the announcement of a new Jeturk mobile suit, the Schwarzette, which disturbs Miorine. She confronts Prospera for bypassing her, but Prospera defends her actions, explaining that the project began with Vim Jeturk long before GUND-ARM Inc. was established. Prospera insists that unveiling the Schwarzette as a collaboration between Jeturk and GUND-ARM would showcase their strengths and future partnership, but Miorine firmly declines, focusing solely on the medical advancements of GUND technology. Miorine soon discovers that Prospera has also been in talks with Shaddiq at Grassley.
In a meeting with Grassley executives, Shaddiq leverages his newfound influence to quietly liquidate assets on Earth, all while claiming to gather resources for the search for Sarius. Marking the beginning of his strategy to dismantle Benerit Group. Meanwhile, Guel, Miorine, and Prospera convene to address Shaddiq's advantage in the presidential race. Prospera suggests that Miorine should consider traveling to Earth to engage with the rioters protesting against Spacians. By doing so, Miorine could help calm the unrest and demonstrate their commitment to investors. As Miorine and Guel ride down the orbital elevator to Earth, and Prospera with the Aerial, Miorine gazes at the planet she has longed to reach, though she realizes now is not the moment for enjoyment. Guel expresses his wish to assess the situation since his last visit when he was under Dawn of Fold's control. Meanwhile, aboard Aerial, Prospera receives an update from Godoy, instructing him to continue with their preparations.
Upon arriving on Earth, Miorine and Guel are taken to meet the protest leaders. Elan, Nugen, and Shaddiq discuss Miorine's efforts to negotiate, with Elan proposing that deploying Aerial to control the protestors might garner her electoral support. However, Shaddiq argues that Miorine would never agree to such a tactic. Meanwhile, Feng starts questioning Belmeria during a tea party, uncovering that the high council of the Space Assembly League is planning to take action against the Benerit Group.
As Miorine negotiates a pause to the riots while Guel reunites with a boy he recognizes from his time as a Dawn of Fold prisoner, who accidentally reveals Shaddiq's connection to them, Guel calls Miorine about the discovery and suggests that he return to Asticassia to search Grassley House for Sarius. Sarius could provide evidence to confirm the truth of Shaddiq's crimes. However, Prospera then goes rogue and uses the Aerial to hack Earthian weapons into firing on Spacians who promptly retaliate, causing negotiations to break down as the area turns into a warzone, which she uses a distraction to destroy a secret Gundam factory run by the Space Assembly League, who were planning on forcefully suppressing the Benerit Group. Believing the destruction of the Ochs Earth bunker was an attack, the protestors erupted into another riot. Despite being ordered to hold their fire, Benerit Security forces panicked and retaliated. Miorine's desperate pleas for calm went unheard as the protest leaders departed, feeling betrayed by the situation.
On a rooftop overlooking the city engulfed in flames, Miorine collapses to her knees, consumed by guilt for the catastrophe.
Quiet Zero's Unveiling
Following Shaddiq's arrest, Miorine has been appointed as the new president of the Benerit Group, while Prospera remains unaccounted for. In the meantime, Peil Technologies exposes the conglomerate's various crimes, providing the Space Assembly League with justification to dismantle them by force. Guel finds Miorine in her father's hospital room, nearly unresponsive and consumed by guilt over the deaths on Earth and at the school. He emphasizes the need for the Group to establish a clear direction moving forward and informs her that they have Shaddiq in custody. In the interrogation room, Shaddiq pleads for mercy for his teammates, while Miorine, feeling heavy with sorrow, struggles to condemn him, her own guilt holding her back, Sarius reaches out, proposing that he and Grassley take the blame to protect the rest of the Benerit Group. Miorine, however, declines the offer, weary of making further sacrifices. Prospera comes out of hiding with the nearly finished Quiet Zero, a massive station armed with a fleet of drones controlled by Ericht, hacking and destroying the League's fleet. Miorine watches the broadcast of the lopsided battle feeling remorseful, again blaming herself involvement in the creation of Quiet Zero and further loss of life. Elsewhere, Lauda has taken to blaming Miorine for Jeturk House's misfortunes.
Reunion with Suletta
Miorine has shut herself in her office at Benerit HQ, refusing to meet with anyone. Before attempting to pilot the Gundam Calibarn, Suletta wishes to meet with Miorine and have a heart-to-heart only for Guel to meet with her first. He says that since Miorine is now his fiancee, he won't let her go to her just like that. At the same time, having heard that Suletta wants to talk heart to heart with her, they agree on a new duel, the price of defeat in which will be Suletta's final complete rejection of Miorine. Suletta and Guel engage in a brief fencing duel which results in Suletta emerging victorious. Guel gives Suletta back her Holder Uniform, and he leads her to where Miorine is. Finally meeting again, Suletta calms Miorine, paralyzed by fear of new terrible mistakes, telling her that she does not consider their meeting a mistake and motivates her to accept the immutability of the past and move on. After Miorine eventually agrees to come out and and offers Suletta to fly to earth together to resolve the consequences after the conflict with Quiet Zero is over, Suletta extends her hand to her, which the Miorine accepts.
Miorine meets with Earth House and offers her apologies before heading to see her father, Delling, who has just woken from his coma. She expresses her determination and urges him not to lose hope. Later, Miorine meets with Shaddiq again and proposes a trade. As preparations progress, Suletta and Miorine share a moment in a locker room where Suletta gifts Miorine a tomato, which contains a message from Miorine's mother hidden in it's genetic code. They promise to cultivate more tomatoes together before testing the Calibarn, where Suletta must achieve Permet Score Five independently to counter Aerial's override. With Miorine's encouragement, Suletta manages to reach the required score, bringing her immense relief.
Attack on Quiet Zero
Suletta will act as a diversion while Earth House sneaks into the space station. Just as the mission begins, Lauda attempts to kill Miorine with the Gundam Schwarzette, forcing Guel to intervene. Meanwhile, despite the challenges of piloting the Calibarn, Suletta successfully breaches Quiet Zero's defenses, only to face the Aerial, which is piloted by Ericht. Ericht, unable to come to an agreement and unwilling to harm her sister, orders her Gundnodes to encircle the Demi Barding, ready to eliminate Miorine and everyone else on board to thwart their plan and send a message to Suletta. Just as she is about to act, an unexpected force within Quiet Zero's data storm disrupts her, disabling the Gundnodes and allowing the Demi Barding to move forward safely. Confused by the source of this interference, Ericht watches as Prospera leaves Quiet Zero's command room to intercept the intruders. Meanwhile, Guel chooses not to fight Lauda, allowing his mobile suit to be pierced as a way to atone for their father's death, which jolts Lauda back to reality. Luckily, Felsi Rollo steps in just in time to stop Guel's mobile suit from exploding. The infiltration team boards Quiet Zero and heads toward its core, but their progress is blocked by Haro-controlled security drones. Kenanji Avery deploys a flashbang to momentarily disable the drones, allowing Belmeria Winston, Miorine, and Elan 05 to advance further. As they work to shut down Quiet Zero, Prospera arrives with additional drones, having changed the password that Belmeria anticipated. While Suletta and Ericht engage in a battle outside, Miorine confronts Prospera about her treatment of her daughters while trying to hack into the system. As Belmeria and Elan 05 fend off Prospera, Miorine finds an administrative subroutine linked to her mother’s name. Using the information Suletta provided earlier, she successfully disrupts the data storm. With the storm weakened, Rouji establishes a Permet Link, enabling the engineers at Benerit HQ to completely shut down Quiet Zero. Despite Delling's repeated pleas for them to stand down, the League seizes the moment to fire the ILTS superweapon. In a swift move to safeguard her family, Ericht deploys the Aerial and Quiet Zero's drones to intercept the shot, resulting in significant damage to her Gundam body.
Aboard Quiet Zero, Miorine and her team are taken captive by Godoy and his security forces. Meanwhile, Guston, from his shuttle, attempts to convince the League chairman to halt further assaults, but his pleas fall on deaf ears. Despite the growing pressure of piloting the Calibarn, Suletta transports the remains of the Aerial to Quiet Zero, where Prospera instructs her to reinstall Ericht onto it. She ultimately declines and merges the Gund-Format of the Calibarn, Aerial, Pharact, and Schwarzette to disable the ILTS before annihilating the Gundams and Quiet Zero, while overriding all communication equipment across the Earth Sphere, allowing Miorine to announce the dissolution and liquidation of the Benerit Group, the result of the agreement she struck with Shaddiq, who provided a full confession in exchange for her actions, causing the Space Assembly League to lose its intervention justification. Prospera, witnessing Ericht's alliance with Suletta, abandons her ambitions. As Quiet Zero and the Gundams begin to dissolve into Permet particles, leaving Suletta floating alone in space, where she is found by Miorine.
Three years later, GUND-ARM Inc. has become successful, Miorine meets with Shaddiq in prison prior to his trial, and he not only committed his own crimes but also became a scapegoat for Quiet Zero. Miorine departs for Quinharbor to meet with protestors, accompanied by Shaddiq's former entourage; Ericht joins her as well, having come to inhabit Suletta's Hots keychain. Despite acknowledged the likelihood that certain Spacians may attempt to take advantage of Earth again, Miorine remains hopeful that they can move forward to make their world better. Miorine and the Earth House reunite with Suletta, who is now happily married to her. Suletta is living a tranquil life with Prospera and Ericht while focusing on her rehabilitation and her dream of starting her own school.
