Matthew clenches his teeth in his cockpit as Sieljie and her Arm walks away.

"...Neg." He says. "That aura of dejection, of resignation...I won't stand for it. I shall not let you walk away from this fight believing you have gained nothing!"

His Flamberge steps forward. Is he going to attack? No...he's simply matching Sieljie's pace.

"I am Matthew Helmar, warrior of Jade Falcon, commandant of the Invincible Dai-Gurren...and from this day forward, I shall fight on your side! Sieljie of the South...I shall be your ally!"
