When Windblade met with the ship's captain, Elita One, she learned that their Titan was not named "Tempo", but rather, "Carcer". Elita, hoping to hide the dark history behind her ship, simply claimed they had renamed their ship during their long voyage. Windblade knew that this was the name of another, separate Titan, and was secretly concerned with what Elita was hiding from her. The Will of the Few Windblade went to ask Metroplex about the relationship between Carcer and Tempo to which the Titan answered that Carcer was a different Titan. When Vigilem later awoke, Metroplex reflected that he did not know how or why he would have chosen to mask as Tempo. Rubicon
