The Freestar Collective clip shows a woman going into the capital, in search of a vital component for her ship. After she retrieves a new part, she sees a statue, which gives her a flashback to what appears to be war. As she is leaving the capital, she sees an assailant holding a man at gunpoint. She knocks out the enemy and is offered a reward from the victim, but rejects it. She shows she has everything she needs and leaves in cheerful spirits, having fixed her ship.
The Ryujin Industries video plays out a scenario with two thieves in a futuristic society, who steal from people across the vast city. They acquire weapons and while checking one of the stolen bags, the female thief finds a card with a mysterious symbol. It belongs to a frightened man who has something else with the symbol on it. The two thieves fight over the item and the woman wins, causing the male thief to run away. She then goes to a building which bears the mysterious symbol and is given a card of her own, a weapon, and what appears to be a contract.
