Yanu'Li hates being called "alien". In terms of significant lifeforms, aliens don't exist - not in this galaxy, anyway. Yanu'Li doesn't care what the deluded adherents of the long-departed Prophet Ta'Cruz think. Every one of her interstellar ancestors is traceable to Earth and she can reliably claim ancestors on every continent (several were pioneers on post-icecap Antarctica, even). She points out that there are fifteen thousand, eight hundred and seven planets now with human populations outnumbering the twenty-nine billion of the homeworld. By the time you have finished reading this, that will be fifteen thousand, eight hundred and eighteen. Funny how Terrans always consider her (enhanced) hair is a natural shade... Morphs/poses by me; ditto the Vue background
