Background

Some old trapper once told me there was a book called “The Coal Miner’s Daughter”. I didn’t care. I couldn’t read. Still can’t read and I still don’t care. I’m already a coal miner’s daughter. On both sides. My mother and father worked the mines in the northern reaches of Iron Heart where working underground meant the risk of being buried under rock and working above group meant being buried under snow. Hard labor was the only work available. You see my father was from Quebec, came to Iron Heart when the Emperor declared Free Quebec as traitors. My father agreed, he loved the Coalition. He was loyal and that loyalty cost him. Nobody trusts a Frenchman.

As soon as I was old enough I helped out in the mines too, pushing carts, working loaders, all the while trying to speak my best American even if my name gave away my heritage. When I was sixteen there was a mine collapse, they needed workers to go in and get the others. They told my father he had to go back in even though the mine was still unstable. He was loyal. He went. He died.

That day I walked ten kilometers through a blizzard to get to the recruiting office in the next town. If I was going to die, I was going to go down fighting. The Army is a great fit. Like my father I believe in the Coalition. The greatest hope for humanity. Unlike my father I won’t let someone send me to my doom unless it’s on my terms - and I’m carrying a plasma rifle.
