CHAPTER 16
With great effort, I leveraged myself out of the bed. It was early morning before even the sun had crested the horizon. I went to a desk and found a pen with an actual piece of paper the hotel provided. A few minutes later I had completed my note.
Dear Astrid Starla and Mila,
I am going to get some real world experience. It was recommended by someone important and I feel would be wise to heed the advice. While I am gone, here is what I would like for you to do.

There was a red flag that I was deceased and when I ensured them it was a typo they fixed it in their records. After the physical was a barrage of tests. I felt I did fairly well with them.

The entire process took less than two hours and I was impressed. The military was efficient in shipping recruits off. Made sense. Gave them less time to escape with a changed mind.
