Summary: An Amarrian Capsuleer reflects upon the experience of becoming an immortal.

Not everyone survives becoming a Capsuleer. Well, 'survive' is an odd word to describe the outcome of a process that requires your physical destruction. Comes back, would be more appropriate, preferably with your personality and sense of continuity intact. Bonus points if you don't immediately disassociate completely from your new body. Not that it matters so much, as you'll mostly be linked to your ship via a direct and total neural connection from now on. Besides, you can always get a new body, a new ship even, although they usually cost more. The mind's harder to fix every time. Xoria attributes her continued success at this, her remaining sanity - as much as your average Amarrian looks sane to the rest of the galaxy, especially when you take into account that she judges sanity by the even lower standards of a typical Capsuleer - to her strict religious upbringing and her close personal connection to her faith. She had always known the direction of her soul, always known what it meant to be uniquely in the presence of the divine. This was just another surrender of that soul, another step towards the existence awaiting her in the paradise she earned.
