"Yes, and the Princesses of Heart, besides what I've already told you, don't have to be literal Princesses," Tocsax was now answering Jupiter's questions. "The Reign of the Confederacy is, again, in another universe that can be reached some hours by Gummi Ship. What, or rather, who's there? One of the Princesses of Heart; we're coming there to get her."

Jupiter would find herself wandering to the shooting range, where she would hopefully meet one of the others. Not merely that, but she found a book on the 'Original Universe/Timeline'; apparently, the most powerful nation in the Original World, the United States of America, had a Civil War in the century before it became a superpower. In this Civil War, fought over the issue of Slavery, the opposing sides were The Union, aka the Federal Government, and the Confederacy, a group of slavocrats. In the Original Timeline, the Confederacy lost and the slaves were freed, but the fact that the group's destination tomorrow was called 'Reign of the Confederacy' showed that it won't be the case in an Alternate Timeline.

Oh, and the Confederacy hated anyone who was not White, but the Gummi Cruiser had all sorts of disguises on board, as well as magic to strengthen said disguises.
