The Archangel saves Kira as they enter the Earth's atmosphere. As a result, they land in ZAFT-controlled territory in the Sahara in northern Africa, far from their intended target, Alaska.

Quotes

“	Mu: " Oh, which reminds me... why does Kira often refer to that thing as Gundam?" Murdoch: "Oh, it appears on the activation screen. General Unilateral Neuro-link... and so on. Take the first letter of each word, and that's what you get. The military refers to it only as 'G'."	”
—Mu La Flaga asking Kojiro Murdoch why Kira Yamato refers to the Strike as Gundam, Mobile Suit Gundam SEED, The Respective Solitudes

“	"Sai. Our arrangement was decided by my father. But my father is no longer around. It was nothing more than a verbal agreement... and our situation has changed since. So I don't see why we should have to be tied down by that any longer."	”
—Flay Allster ending her engagement to Sai Argyle, Mobile Suit Gundam SEED, The Respective Solitudes

“	"Kira. You're to fight, and fight, and fight until you die. It's the only way I'll forgive you."	”
—Flay Allster about Kira Yamato, Mobile Suit Gundam SEED, The Respective Solitudes

“	"It's alright. My thoughts will protect you."	”
—Flay Allster comforting Kira Yamato, Mobile Suit Gundam SEED, The Respective Solitudes
