[Her memories of it are gone, but she was once told the only reason she was being allowed to exist, the only reason for her existence, was to fight. A soldier anyway, and obsessed with power and her vengeance at the time, it had been easy to snap back that it was her intention anyway and to shut up pretending to control her.
When she finally gave the final blow of that most important battle... it had shaken everything loose. She'd come back to herself, with a weapon in her hand and the body of her best and only and most beloved friend crumpled on the ground in front of her.
She knows what comes next if it's really all about battle.
And she knows what comes next when it isn't. She became a doctor. She repaired her friendships. She went to school, even studied abroad. She had a life.]
I'd like to think they are. They're needed by everyone, all the time, everywhere. That's why I want to be one, too, aside from Mama hoping for it.
