She spent the first six years of her life at a college run by the High Church, where along with the other acolytes, learned about the hierarchy, of the system, how it benefits people, and how they are a useful part of a glorious machine. This exercise, was mostly done, to appease the High Church, but as it turned out, teaching them the social dynamics, and people skills required of them, was much easier. than programming it, as that potentially caused deviances from expected behavior. Here she learned under a man called Father Gustav d'Ivrea, who was sympathetic the local Sol temple as well, this is where the roots of her faith took place.
Serving for Fornax[]

When she heard of a rumor about a still living Cygnus member, who had the technology to make synths, she immediately joined the Northern Armada to Teuthem, leaving the icy planet in the capable hands, of Chief-Engineer Parsifal Jakabich and First Ordain Matar Svoboda who helped her build a small temple and flock of believers for Sol on Shān.
