Ok so i tried reading Exodus awhile back and now i'm trying again. Problem is there are a number of things that really confuse me and answers would be appreciated.

First. Putting aside the fact that Lara croft is DJ's mom for a second what was with changing Tokyo-3 to worchester?

second. DJ knowing about Seele seem highly improbable given that they're a secret order, even if lets say Lara knew about them (quite likely given Lara's escapades) why in the hell would she tell her kid about it? as it would put him in greater danger

Third. although i don't mind DJ and his attitude thus far it looks as if you threw out the world map before starting the project because the power in the world is the UN because the world is supposed to be unified after the wars that followed second impact

fourth. Speaking of the fourth child what the hell is with Shinji refusing to pilot it the first time and then coming back? Psychologically that presents some contradictions.
