I commanded a military division that patrolled the skies of Cocoon--my homeworld--and worked to eliminate monsters on the outer rim of it. The Wide-Area Response Brigade, better known as the Cavalry. The friend of mine who has been brought to this world as well was my second in command.

[ Welp, that wasn't exactly a cheerful answer. So Alf decides to take the next self-advised approach. ]

Thank you -- for sating my curiosity, that is. I'm Alf.

Likewise, Cid.
