In the Midst of Scattered Light

Despite the best efforts of the 00-Raiser to destroy the second Memento Mori, the beam fired from the badly damaged satellite weapon is still sufficient to severely damage the elevator; pieces of falling structure begin devastating the surface below. The Gundams’ efforts to destroy the falling debris are helped by the combined efforts of Marie’s GN Archer, Katharon, the Federation army and Kati’s forces after a desperate plea for cooperation broadcasted by Sumeragi from the Ptolemaios 2. In the aftermath, Andrei Smirnov unexpectedly slays Hank Hercule, and soon associates his father Sergei with the coup d’etat. Wishing to avenge his mother’s death, Andrei destroys Sergei’s unit as Marie arrives too late to intervene.
