Today I saw my reflection. 

It angered me.

Because all I could see what I've yet to become.


But that's alright. I have the drive to achieve, even if what I wanted to do is out of my reach. Who would have thought those loyal to a machine would one day become part's incompatible with it. 

My father was a great man, His father before him also achieved many things. Even my uncle is renowned across this land. My name is shared with another who has done more then I have. 
But I'm done playing around. My heart was broken once Achyon was no longer Achyon. Yet every time I look at my reflection I can't help but see what was lost. What could have been if things never changed. Could I have been a soldier like those before me? No doubt, But would I have survived in todays food chain? I don't know. 

But father, I still have the rifle you gave me when I was but a young girl. I've found freedom from chains I didn't even know were shackled around my ankles. 

So now it's time for me to finally get to work and start defining my path. 

I hope I can make your proud. That's all I've ever wanted to do was impress you father.
