Everything. It has everything to do with them. And…here’s where things get really complicated.
[Rei’s lips twitch into a small frown as she tries to work out the best way to explain this.]
The Black Moon Clan, the rulers of Nemesis, are from our future. The 30th Century, as I understand it, and they have access to a powerful dark counterpart to the Ginzuisho simply called the Dark Crystal. I don’t know everything about them, because of how…time travel works, I haven’t quite gotten to that point yet, but what I do know is that they were originally rebels against Crystal Tokyo.
[She holds up a hand, trying to get through this before questions hit…]
As to what that is…well. This is how I know we are from entirely different worlds. At the turn of the 20th century, Sailor Moon and the Sailor Senshi transcended humanity with the help of the Ginzuisho. We more or less reawakened our past lives, divinity and power, all of us, and regained our full power while still retaining who we are. And Sailor Moon married her prince Endymion at last. [There’s a fond note there, even though she hadn’t seen the wedding yet.] The two of them took the throne of the Earth, unifying the world and creating a utopia, and transforming Tokyo into Crystal Tokyo. There was no war, no hunger, no death. Simply…I suppose you could call it paradise.
Only a dark power from outside was at work, a being known as Death Phantom. He tried to raise a rebellion against the Queen and as he was in a human body the Queen refused to kill him. Instead, she banished him to Nemesis and declared the planet off limits. There he became something…dark and evil after coming into contact with the taint of that place, and eventually his influence spread back to Earth. He brainwashed more civilians to fight against us, and was again defeated and the citizens were sent to Nemesis as well. That…became the origins of the Black Moon Clan.
[There may be a slight hint of disgust in her voice, something cold and angry. Disrupting something like that for personal greed...it infuriated her.]
They attacked again in earnest in the 30th century, waging a pitched battle for control of the Earth. [And then comes something weirder.]
And in a bid to protect her daughter as well as the Ginzuisho, the queen sent her daughter back in time with the crystal to stay with us for protection.
[Now, she’s seen Terminator. She knows how this sounds. So…she’ll pause there for Hiro to process And the mun too.]
