Maria V. Snyder Quote

Well, Valek, any new promotions? the Commander askedNo. But Maren shows promise. Unfortunately she doesn’t want to be in my corps or even be my second.She just wants to beat me. Valek grinned, delighted by the challenge.And can she? the Commander inquired. His eyebrows rose.With time and the proper training. She’s deadly with her bow; it’s just her tactics that need work.Then what do we do with her?Promote her to General and retire some of those old wind-bags. We could use some fresh blood in the upper ranks.Valek, you never had a good grasp of military structure.Then promote her to First Lieutenant today, Captain tomorrow, Major the next day, Colonel the day after, and General the day after that.I’ll take it under advisement.
