- Several hours have passed since the meeting that was called up in the G.U.D.'s headquarters first began. Discussions and debates were held, tensions were raised, mediation took place between heated debaters, etc., but now things have fizzled out; most of the representative body has left, leaving a few key individuals in the now relatively empty meeting hall.
- Among them, the Governance Council is present, along with a Separatist Keeper, Jiro Ifukube, and High Priest Metphies.
- (Jiro Ifukube): So, that's the decision, then?
- (President Tori Bott-80): It has to be this way, Jiro. We need to set boundaries somewhere. Besides, I'm sure this will be beneficial to both your projects.
- (Jiro Ifukube): Very well then, ma'am.
- The rest of the Governance Council leaves the meeting hall, leaving the last three individuals alone together. Of the three, the Exif priest is the one to strike up conversation with the former director of the defunct Project Warmonger.
- (Metphies): Looks like we'll be working together closely.
- (Jiro Ifukube): So it seems, Metphies.
- (Metphies): You know, Galu-gu and I have been pushing to merge our projects together for some time. He believes that building a strong relationship through mutual cooperation on projects that will benefit all the species.
- (Jiro Ifukube): And what about you? Why did you want to merge our projects?
- (Metphies): I find you and your associates quite interesting. Your history together is quite fascinating, especially your old student.
- Upon hearing the last bit of Metphies's comment, Jiro Ifukube shows the slightest signs of sadness in his facial expression; it's especially notable in his eyes. Despite taking notice of this change in demeanour, the Exif priest continues without changing pace or tone, still maintaining his soft authority and ever so slight hint of sly curiosity.
- (Metphies): Laura Reed, was it?
- (Jiro Ifukube): That's right. She was the best pupil I ever had, and she's part of the reason why we're all still here and alive right now. She's a part of Gamera now, wherever he may be right now.
- (Metphies): She was a descendant priest, yes? An individual whom had formed a psychic connection with that artificial Kaiju?
- (Jiro Ifukube): Yes, she was. Is that religious connection why you brought her up?
- (Metphies): Partially. But it was more about the psychic connection with the turtle's soul. We Exif believe absolute devotion to a noble cause is how we become closer to God, and I cannot help but respect the devotion it must have taken for her to be connected to a monster like that, even dying for the cause.
- (Jiro Ifukube): She always did have great conviction.
- Before the two can finish their conversation, the Separatist Keeper walks up to the two men, prompting them to turn to look up to him.
- (Keeper): I'm sorry to interrupt, gentlemen, but I've been informed that Zeus has arrived at Mt. Fuji.
- (Jiro Ifukube): Alright, thank you, Keeper.
- (Metphies): Looks like we better take extra precautions when we get back to Japan, then.

- On the jungle paradise of Roth-Ma Island, the second biggest isle of the Jiran Island Cluster, some of the natives of the island are going about their daily business. One of the village children is playing along the beach and is poking at some hermit crabs with a stick. As he's playing, something washes ashore that catches his attention.
- The young boy walks to the object that washed ashore and flips it over with his stick.
- It looks somewhat like a crab, though one that's quite different from the ones that normally inhabit the beach. This one is red all over and possesses what looks like bat wings. Soon after, several more of the same kinds of creatures start washing up sporadically across the beach.
