Why this must be read:

This is a really intriguing, introspective portrait of Sikozou and her life, why she does the things she does. This, I think, is one of the powers of fanfiction--the ability to go soft-focus on secondary characters that don't necessarily get the attention on the show, and make them compelling, interesting, and worthy of note.

She is taken by the Scarrans the cycle after your grandfather dies. A cycle later the council comes to your parents with the offer. You don’t know these hard-eyed Kalish, don’t know exactly what their offer will mean. Your sires don’t wish you to go, but Siran’s loss fuels you, sparks your decision. Regardless, it will provide an escape from the cloying sterility of your house, of your sires with nothing to say in Siran’s absence. You go to the council yourself and they send you to school.

You are14 cycles old, and determined.
