More random stuff...


At the moment, there are a number of indicators suggesting that the masked female
is Mexiah.  The reasons for this are -

- When Doll frees Kenshi in episode 1, Wahanly notes that Mexiah's seiki is missing
from its spot in the hanger.  We also see the masked female for the first time as
she contacts Aura's ship and informs Aura's crew that there are intruders in the
Dark Elf territory (initially this led me to believe that the masked female was merely
a Dark Elf scout, though this doesn't appear to be the case).  The masked female's
seiki also has a mask, and is wearing a cloak that fully covers both the front
and back of her seiki, making it impossible to properly compare her seiki with Mexiah's
seiki.  The only part of the seiki that's easily visible is the rifle, which is similar
to the one that Mexiah's seiki uses.  Finally, Mexiah reappears shortly
after Aura arrives with Kenshi which is shortly after the last time that we see the
masked female in this episode.  When Chiaia asks Mexiah where she's been, the latter
basically ignores the question.

- In episode 2 Mexiah is identified as someone who spends a lot of time with Ulyte.
And while we never actually see the speaker, Ulyte spends a great deal of time conversing
with someone who has a voice distorted in a fashion identical to that of
the masked female.  It wouldn't be too great of a stretch to suggest that the reason
that Mexiah and Ulyte spend time together is because Mexiah is working on the same
secret project that Ulyte is and that the conversations suggest the masked woman is

interested in.  Something to note here is that Dagmyer appears to nominally be in
charge of whatever project Ulyte is involved in, but Ulyte and the masked female appear
to have an ulterior motive in helping out the project - something specifically
tied to Kenshi.  Dagmyer, on the other hand, tried to kill Kenshi when he had the
opportunity.

- In episode 4, the masked female turns up once again.  This time Kenshi ends up pursuing
her late at night until she evades him with a flash bomb.  Kenshi continues to search
for her but is interrupted when Mexiah emerges from the area where Kenshi
is searching - wearing only her panties and a fully unbuttoned dress shirt.  The possibility
exists that Mexiah as the masked female attempted to change out of her outfit into
her normal clothes after evading Kenshi, but was interrupted and unable to
fully dress herself.  Given that it's Mexiah that we're talking about here, Kenshi
probably wouldn't question as hard why Mexiah would be in the woods half-naked at
night as opposed to, say, Chiaia...


On the other hand...

- The two women don't appear to match physically.  In episode 4, there's a very brief
shot of the masked female and Kenshi standing close to each other, and the masked
female appears to be about the same height as Kenshi (though they're sparring at
the time, so it's hard to be certain).  Mexiah is noticeably taller than Kenshi is.
Additionally the masked female appears to have a more or less normal bosom for a female
in this series.  Mexiah appears to be much more amply endowed.

- Perhaps more importantly, most of the situations in which we've seen the masked
female don't make much sense if she's Mexiah in disguise.  For instance, if Mexiah
is the masked female then she was in position to inform the Dark Elves about
Dagmyer's warship because she followed the transmitter hidden on Kenshi to that location.
But why would she need to be disguised in that situation?  No one sees her there,
so it's not as if she has any reason to disguise who she is.  Additionally, we
quite frequently hear what appears to be the masked female's voice talking to Ulyte
while he's in his room (though we never actually see her on these occasions).  Once
again, why would she need to be disguised in these situations, given that the only

other person present is Ulyte?  It's not as if Mexiah would need to disguise herself
in order to have a private conversation with someone that she is frequently seen with
in any case.


Doll - I get the feeling that Doll has a lot in common with 'D'.  Stylistically, her
hair is the exact same shade of green and we only ever see one of her eyes (her hair
is covering her other eye, although which eye is visible changes depending on the

camera angle).  She's definitely not a normal human, as at the end of episode 1 Dagmyer
is told that she's unavailable to continue the mission because she's "sleeping" (which
suggests a longer-term rest than the usual 8 hours; this might be a result
of her contact with Aura's Dark Elf Field).  Personality-wise, it's hard to be certain
because we haven't seen much of her.  She's definitely much more agressive than D,
as she shows in her attack against Aura.  She also seems to be quite gleeful
about the prospect of killing her opponent, and laughs during the rather one-sided
fight.  On the other hand, she's the one who is sent to rescue Kenshi despite the
fact that Dagmyer has other flunkies in seiki that he
could have sent.  And she appears to enjoy watching Kenshi single-handedly humliate
Dagmyer and his guards in hand-to-hand combat.  When Dagmyer demands that she pursue
Kenshi, she's quite happy to point out how ridiculous the suggestion is.  That
could mean that there's an as yet unseen attachment of some sort between Doll and
Kenshi (and Aura has indicated that there's a prophetic link between their seiki).
On the other hand it could just mean that she doesn't like the rather insufferable

Dagmyer. 

If there are "dark" elves, does that mean that their are other elves in this setting?
And will we see any of them?
