After the events of the Solon colony, Remi and Obright are cleaning the Genoace II and they begin to discuss the realities of war and how there is always a chance they would not live to see the next day. Out of nowhere, Obright proposes to Remi who is too shaken up and runs away. When the Vagans begin their invasion of Earth (Battle of Nortrum), during the Diva's deployment Remi reciprocates Obright's feelings, and tells him to come back alive because she intends to marry him. However tragedy strikes, when during the battle, Remi goes out to fix a part for the Diva's photon blaster and is fatally wounded by Mink Leiden. Obright rams his Genoace II into Mink's xvv-xcm Zedas M, sending her into the path of the Diva's photon blaster, killing her, but is too late to save Remi.
