After being sent to the [[First Auction in Heaven]] by Auteur, [[Mother (The Story So Far...)|Mother]] and [[Father (The Story So Far...)|Father]], Gustav ended up helping [[Kifah]] rescue [[Intrepid]] from the bubble of frozen time in which he had become trapped at the [[Battle of Cratosi Fields]], thus directly going against Mother and Father's orders. He eventually got his wish to battle [[Apep]], briefly becoming an incarnation of all of Mars's history as he pitted his [[biodata]] against Apep's; this helped solidify his reality. The three rebellious Faction-members escaped Kratoam aboard [[Cortalian's timeship]] just before it was destroyed completely by Apep's death-throes; by that point, Auteur had killed Mother and Father only to be destroyed himself.

* At several point, Gustav's species of [[Martian]] is implied to be the [[Ice Warrior]]s: Gustav is tall and reptilian, inhabits an [[armour]] with a [[red]] visor, and remembers gatherings of others of his kind as "seas of [[green]]". However, as [[Obverse Books]] did not possess the license to the Ice Warriors for ''[[The Book of the Enemy (anthology)|The Book of the Enemy]]'', this is not made explicit. | |||
