[Ginia has a lot of questions about the SPARTAN project. It's something she's never wanted to ask Ephemera too much about, because she didn't want to know what other comparisons he was making. But every world has its soldiers, every world has its super soldiers.]

I sparred with Ephemera shortly after we arrived. I punched him in the face and he asked if I was a SPARTAN. Said I hit like I wear armor.

[It could have been a compliment. It's been more a condemnation. Ginia leans forward, expression serious.]

Without getting into specifics why, I am one of the fastest and strongest people around. Ephemera knows this. I'd rather it not, but if it gets ugly, I can handle him in a fight.
