Did I actually arrived at chapter 2 in book blogging? XDDD I can't believe it. Someone please have a beer with me in celebration. 

 
One of the thing I hate uploading character theories on tumblr, because when I acquire new informations from the source material, or I sit down to read the source material with an entirely different headspace, my vision about the character changes, and I can't delete those posts permanently.
 
I remember writing an analysis in the past about Arligan Zey where I mentioned how Karen Traviss writes her characters either with civilian mentality or soldier, no in between, and I put Etain also into the soldier category, because I at that time interpreted some of her actions in Hard Contact as PTSD reactions. With my curren headspace, I don't think Etain is behaving like a soldier, or written as a past-child soldier (she is not, but she felt like she was written as such!). I made the mistake that I took Etain's narrative about herself at face-value what is her role in the Jedi Order, but after rereading those parts in the book, I realized that there is so much more in Etain that she is willing to acknowledge. 

But what about Arligan Zey? Because I put Arligan Zey into the soldier category too in the past and in some way I still think he is written soldier-ly like, but I want know for sure if my vision had change about him too with the time, or remained the same. Zey is introduced in this chapter and we won't see him again until the second book so every infomation crumb counts. :D
