Editing Zia's Journal (section)

Addendum. I have seen it in the faces and heard it in the unsaid words of my colleagues. Some of them consider me lax in my ablutions, or even unclean. While I follow the Imperial Guard washing regime every day I fear that I have no hope of joining the ranks of the lily white soap smelling hive elite. When you grow up so deep in the hive that the very air is laced with a thousand forms of pollutant then the filth becomes a part of you that can no more be removed than your skin can be taken off, scrubbed and sewn back on again (yes I am aware that some within the Inquisition have the skill with Biomancy to do such a thing). Still, anywhere below the middle hive a clean face is a dead giveaway one does not belong.
