She was put in quarantine for two years and assigned an observation team, headed by Cosmo Navy Commander Shiro Sanada, her father's best friend, who called her Mio. In October 2207, as the quarantine period was about to end, Sanada read her a poetry book, frustrated by his inability to convey his feelings with words. Suddenly, Iscandar Kodai began looking with intensity and fearful dread at the expanse of space out of a window nearby, seemingly sensing something, unnerving Sanada.[1]
