Struggling To Make A Difference

Saint Davia Stark had often been told that high-ranking expert pilots tended to be… weird and eccentric.

Some had deviated further beyond the realm of normality than others.

They did not understand.

From the moment a human stepped onto the path of godhood, they started a journey that compelled them to continuously temper their willpower.

The difference between a good expert pilot and a bad expert pilot was their degree of commitment and dedication to their cause.

How well did they abide by their promises? How much did they follow the spirit of their vows as well as the letter? How extensively did they spend their time on training and pushing their skills to the next level?

All of these factors and more determined how far high-ranking mech pilots could go. The worst of them inevitably stalled while those who stayed true to their convictions would be able to reach the very end.
