There he was taught patience, hard work and other idealistic virtues which Yuri brought with him as he aged. When he was 15 years old and right when Cyborgels were being handed out, he went to St. Petersburg to get higher education where he met Friedrich Kroenen, a German just two years older than him, who is also studying there until he could get back to Germany. The two became great friends because of their shared interest in philosophy. Both enlisted in the military to keep the citizens of New Society safe from the radical revolutionaries. Both became close to the unit they were assigned to and both seemed on the way to becoming fire-forged brothers. However, Yuri was a big fan of conspiracies and liked looking into things beyond what they looked like. The Russian was once anti-angel and was glad they were defeated for he thought their heavenly appearance were lies and readily believed the words against them. But one thing bugged Yuri. How and where did the anti-angel weaponry came from? And why were there Cyborgels, androids that looked like the enemy? There were reasons but Yuri found them lacking to have servants modeled after the enemy. Because of this, Yuri and other like-minded individuals in his unit, tried to delve deeper. He invited Friedrich in the search for the truth but unfortunately his German friend did not share his ideals and, under orders from the higher-ups, had Yuri detained. Or at least tried to have Yuri detained. The Russian caught wind of this and fled with the other associates. Yuri went low in Russia for a while and continued to search for the truth. It was then he managed to get a hold of a friendly revolutionary who told him the whole story of what happened to the angels. Yuri was a bit skeptical at first but believed in it after connections from the story and the current things made perfect sense. Days after the revelation, Yuri decided to return to his home village to start spreading the word of the revolutionaries. However, he found his village under attack from the military... with Friedrich Kroenen at the lead. Trying to detain him was one thing but Yuri could not believe his former friend would lay waste on his village. Yuri could only watch as his home burned and his family put to death. The Russian swore he would get revenge and the fates blessed him with an opportunity when Friedrich's unit decided to take a rest in the village's ruins. Using his training and knowledge of the military, the element of surprise some well-placed explosives, he managed to take out his friend's troops and also set Friedrich on fire via Molotov Cocktail. His former friend managed to douse himself with a nearby puddle before running towards the woods. Yuri chased after him ultimately lost him to the woods' fog. Knowing that his traitorous friend was probably still alive, Yuri officially joined the revolutionaries to fight for the oppressed angels and the deceived mankind and in the hopes he would encounter his friend again. He fought the military arm of New Society continuously, while hearing about a captain among them wearing a gas mask, to where he is now, hoping to meet Friedrich Kroenen for one last reunion.

All this time we've been fighting the wrong enemy. The angels really have come to bring us, humanity, salvation. To deliver us to the next world. And what did we, humanity, do? We looked the other way. We listened to the venomous lies of opportunists, of power-hungry men, of demons in human flesh. We fought against our saviors and enslaved every last one of them. Turned them into mindless servants for us, humanity, who then indulged in the many sinful vices of life and forgot the virtues of our great ancestor heroes. But the fight is not over. Once the true revolution begins, the world will be [b]REBORN[/b] anew and the facade of peace Desium Corp. imposes will come crashing down! The angels will once again take their rightful place as judges and... I hope they forgive us for what we've done. Though I will not be surprised if they do not, if they condemn us all to Hell. It is what we deserve after all, after our numerous blasphemies and pain we've caused them.[/i]" [/hider]
