[Maketh smiles a little, remembering. Despite - well, everything - her experiences at the Academy were largely positive. Possibly the happiest time of her life.] I wanted to be a pilot when I first started, but everyone did. It was very glamorous.
[Even more so to her, the farm girl who'd never flown before. But it had been decided that her talents were better suited to other, less military things. She lacked the fortitude to fly in combat, which all Imperial pilots did. Maketh had accepted that, because it had been told to her and was therefore true.]
I think, if it had been my choice, I would have studied history.
[She still does, sometimes, when she has time to spare. She frowns at the shot glasses, and prods them back into a straight line.] There you go. It would be very useful if you could make these...apps? Especially a more accurate mapping system, or a means to plot sightings of the--animals, on a grid.
[She refrains from saying monsters. That might bring up the wendigos again.]
