Augusta took them in.
They were present and in use during the Grand Race 10 years ago, while the events of Last Exile happened 2 years ago, so I'll buy the "Guilders left behind" theory over ex-Delphine fraction.. though we did only see the two bodyguards at that race and not an entire squad now.

Talking about the squad, the Dio-rescuing-Alvis flashback.. Dio's awesome. Now that he's not brainwashed or distracted over Imelman he's putting his skills to good use. It feels rather forceful to have Anatory claim a territory after coming back to Earth though. You'd think they of all people would have learned to "communicate" the peaceful way. Maybe they've tried.. Ades isn't exactly open to negotiations. Makes you wonder why they left Prester though. That place looked plentiful enough after the Grand Stream dispelled and warmed up the planet.

PS: I want more Alvis screentime!! And the toy lamb.

I really enjoyed watching Dian. She's like the mellow, shy parts of Felli (which means she isn't THAT much like Felli, but it's enough..)

Yeah, Luscinia is basically in revenge mode at the moment while still trying to follow Augusta's ideology as much as he can convince himself to.
