Courage is not acquired. Courage is ingrained in the soul. For BoJinn and Kim, entering the recruitment compound is just the beginning. Their courage, skill, and endurance will be tested, but they will not falter. Born into a family steeped in military tradition, BoJinn is one to be respected.

As the daughter of one deemed a traitor, nothing will be handed to her. Suspicion will follow her at every turn.
