On a wasteland planet torn by internicine warfare, death stood but a touch away from birth. It was lit up by a little girl of 3 found in a broken capsule by brutal but caring people. They became her brothers and sisters of revolution, fighting a war she didn't know. 12 years later, she realised there was something above, beyond, her nature calling her to further places. To explore, create, destroy, walk among the stars like a goddess. Ever since, she looked up at the stars. So she fought, to reach her pearls.

On her 16th birthday, in a scrap fight with her blood-stained family, she sighted in her rifle a stranded Caldari Navy veteran. A capsuleer. She knew the thing behind him and her heart leapt... she squeezed the trigger. Taking pilot jacket and boots, she jumped into her new capsule. It felt like home; she'd been there before. She knew this world, this tool of technology and death. She knew her calling and into space she fled.

She was called Anushka and this is her story.
