The Bendako line of monks goes back millenia. None have taken to space flight until now. When I stated my desire to be a capsuleer I had to recieve my grandfather's permission. He said the family name and honour must be set by the first to leave our planet so I must be ready. His examinations of me lasted through his lifetime and his permission was given to me on his death bed. I myself am now a grandfather but the dream is still held in the heart of a child, and I am flying in space, and with honour. My grandfathers spirit is watching over me with approval. Where this dream will take me remains to be seen but it will be done without fear.
