The various galaxies had become... "Civilized" with no need for assassins nor soldiers... Most of the Galaxy centers didn't even require police or as they were called as everyone was becoming more tame and civilized constables. She like the rest of her people were left to fend for themselves and figure out other talents for survival. That was the problem...
Many became bored enough to travel the edges seeking anything to hunt or kill or fight. She in time did the same. Managing to find an old luxury cruiser that had been created from an ancient Darryen War destroyer. Far too big of a ship for her but it afforded her lots of things to train with and destroy or sell for credits when she needed money for food repairs or gambling.
That's when she found it... A strange being... Looked like the laughable humans of old... At least how the old silver data chips portrayed them. There had been no single blood being in centuries... So what or who was this being and why did she find him interesting?
There was no bounty to collect and she was in no way charitable of a being but now here she was with this... Single blood she found as she scavenged the closed off areas of the Lost Souls space port created by her own kind on the forgotten edge of known space....
She apparently was not the only one who knew about it... Something was coming from outside the border lands... Following her kind and the strange single blood creature... Finally... Battle... Suddenly this strange yet interesting single blood was of value after all.

Lost Souls... An overzealously accurate name for what her people had become. Taylanna Azen sighed as she was directed to a docking area. She had busted up a couple of training rooms worth of equipment to sell to scavenge the tons of unused areas in the station. They clearly had literally just slammed tons of scrap ships and stations together to create this monstrosity then didn't even use most of it. Still it was a good bet she could find useful stuff for the ai to help her better manage repair and run her ship... Her home... Her tomb of boredom.
