What Royse wasn't ready for was the incident that changed her future from that of a Soldier to that of a missionary. After coming into contact with the Tsoro poison Royse was informed that she was only person who was capable of taking on the job of missionary with the Tsoro, and was the only hope to potentially putting an end to the war.
