Rung served as a psychiatrist on board the Fateful Archetype, where was accused of malpractice. A tribunal found that he had indeed got too close to his patients and he was struck off but the Fateful Archetype was shot down shortly afterwards, leaving Rung as the only survivor. With all evidence of the tribunal destroyed he returned to practising, though confessed his deception to his friend Froid.
A long time later and after the war had ended, Froid showed up on the Lost Light, threatening to reveal Rung's secret if he didn't hand over his patient notes. Rung refused and so Froid was forced to reveal the presence of his pet psychopath Sunder—who fed off suppressed memories—as the real reason why he needed access to Rung's patients.
