What The Five Star Stories is
You're a Headliner riding into battle beneath twin red suns and your fatima hums a lullaby as she powers your Mortar Head’s plasma blade. Then the empire's newest decree demands all knights surrender their fatimas to the Crown. A director’s camera lingers on a fatima’s silent wristwatch while Yamazaki turns the lens back on the viewer.
