I didn't say they were without their quirks. Though I don't believe someone having special powers necessarily makes them interesting. I suppose I'll give them that they're certainly better at their jobs compared to others I've dealt with.
[ she nods at that, though; ]
I heard you were a General? Was that by choice or happenstance?
You could say a bit of both. It was not what I set out to be, however it is where my path ultimately lead me. And it is a choice, in that such commitment should not be taken lightly.

[ why is she like this. anyway; ]
So you chose the life of a General and are committed to it, but you're still enjoying not having to be one. Minus the murder of singing demons.

Like the adage. "War never changes". I suppose the same can't be said of the beyond.
