(Vinnie's two-thirds of the way towards the Masuno's residence)
Vinnie: I remember being a small kid when it occurred, the United States, Britain, and Germany fought against the East and South for control of the remaining resources of the world, resulting in its absolute destruction. My mother cried on the day that my father was enlisted back forty years ago in Berlin. I never saw him again, died in an explosion in a field in Kentucky. Not long after the war's end, the families began to appear, and split up and fought over whatever morsels were left. Ievivnov, then only a young man coming back from Taiwan's battlefields, created the Ballwater family as a funding group for refugees. Many were targeted by thieves and thugs... and that's when I was hired.
