Plot Summary: Before the outbreak of the colony war, forces were at work shaping the future and preparing its players for the final game. As children, each of the Gundam pilots endured hardships that would have broken the will of any normal person.

But not even their comrades in arms could have known about the even more tumultuous childhoods as war orphans and other hardships.
