Now Albel was confused. He frowned. "Well, I know about aliens because some people crash-landed on my planet and I wound up going up into space with them because of various circumstances." Not like he was going to admit out loud that it was because some 4-D monsters from another universe were trying to destroy everything. Or, more importantly, admit that Albel went along because he was friends with the people fated to stop the 4-D monsters.
Besides, the circumstances had been pretty embarrassing, what with the mortal wound he'd received saving their lives. Who wants to admit to that kind of thing?
"But I thought you said you were from Earth. That's where Fayt's from, and they supposedly founded the Federation, or something. You should have seen lots of aliens." He frowned. "Unless you just call your planet 'Earth' and there's another Earth somewhere."
