Kathleen Reynolds saw a lot of things while she was touring all over the worlds. Yes, she saw a lot of parties, but she also saw less enjoyable things out there. What exactly she saw and where she saw it tends to change based on which story she is telling, but she got an eyeful of some of the colonial shenanigans going on out on the rim of human expansion. No major government admits the scope of the competition that waged for the outer colonies back then. They certainly never call it a war, but Katy says it was a war. They conducted it out beyond the core colonies where most people never saw or heard of it, but Katy traveled far enough from Earth in her quest to see everything in living color. And that changed her world. It changed her. It changed what she needed to do with the life the Peloran gave her.
