Good Sword

A year and a half later and I was In the training room having just finished a spar with Orchid and was now taking a short break going over some things on my bio pad. During this time I have been rigorously training my mind and body as I am about to go on my first expedition into the universe, excluding the Ker'min invasion. 

When I first decided to bring up the subject of me leaving I expected Jewel to be vehemently against the idea, but she was surprisingly encouraging and had told me she had been preparing for me in secret as a surprise.

At first I thought it was a strategy to make me feel loved and supported and make me want to stay, which nearly worked, however she was genuinely excited for me to go as long as the place I was deciding to go was 'peaceful' in the eyes of the hive.
