During the fight in the planetary capital of New London, his 'Mech was trapped under a collapsing building. After the planet had fallen into Wolf hands, Noritomo was rescued alive and taken as [[bondsman]] by Wolf Star Colonel [[Don Cooper]].

By 25 May 3151 however, the role of Loremaster had been offered to Noritomo Helmer, who accepted.
