Your second statement contradicts your first.

Every time I see Sundar, I’m reminded of Captain Haddock from Tintin.

Also, recall that Sundar mentioned he’d been reduced to performing at children’s birthdays and tasking assassination contracts. I repeat. Assassination contracts. He would take money, go into someone’s home or find them in a public place and murder them. Byron didn’t even bat an eye at that one. And don’t even try that “Oh, they must have been bad people if someone wanted them dead”, because most assassination contracts are from bad people to kill good people who are messing up their illegal activities.

“Naturally”, of course, can mean different things, that’s why I asked. So thanks for the clarification. Now I like your line “Even in a human civilization that doesn’t seem to discriminate much based on gender” because it allows for the possibility that there is discrimination based on gender, even if it doesn’t seem so. (What, in my opinion, is the case in regard to modern military forces. Compare recent events in the Australian army.)
I don’t like the conclusion “female warriors and adventurers would of course be less common than males of the profession” – I consider this to be contingent. (Even if true for the USA and Arkerra.)

Maybe she was one of the rare people who didn’t need giant rotten skeletons to have forgiveness for others, regardless of their past transgressions
