| − | As is traditional with many families in the Kingdom, the first-born children are groomed to inherit the family leadership, while the second-born children are typically steered towards entering military service in either the massive ground forces of the Kingdom, or the Royal Khanid Navy. Silas entered the officer track of the RKN Academy in YC 49. Having attended several junjior military academies in her youth, Vitalia was a quite at home in her new setting and progressed through the RKN training in short order.

| |
| − | In '''YC 52''' she graduated with honors and received her first commission, a small RKN patrol-frigate with a crew of 7 operating out of an RKN station in the "Western" edge of Kingdom space. Primary duties included anti-pirate operations, patrols of trade routes, rooting out smugglers, and pushing back several raids by the Blood Raider Covenant.

| − | ==Exchange Program with Amarr Empire==
| |
| − |
| |
| − | In YC 101, in order to encourage the thawing relationship between the Kingdom and the Amarr Empire, a small but controversial military exchange program was initiated. High-Ranking officers and captains of both Navies were to be exchanged in order to encourage a "broader understanding" and ease tensions along the Kingdom/Empire border.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Vitalia was selected for this group, and was granted a reciprocal rank of "Admiral" in the Imperial Navy. Along with several of her best officers, they were to conduct was was essentially a 'goodwill tour' in the Empire for various Holders and the public, along with several "Milk Runs," that is low-risk operations against local pirates in order to boost public approval.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | As can be expected these "Exchanges" were of course extremely controversial on both sides, with vocal opposition among hardliners in both Navies. For every officer that welcomed new ties with their long-lost brothers and sisters, an equal number remained bitter and saw no interest in changing the current state of affairs.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Vitalia's opinions on the matter were not known, and she continued in her duties as best as possible. During what was to be a simple military escort in low security Imperial space, an incident occurred that would end Vitalia's military career in disgrace.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Details of the exact events are still closely guarded, but what is known that several high ranking members of the Ministry of Internal Order were killed in an apparently negligent shuttle accident while under Vitalia's command. What had been an uneventful operation quickly ended in court-martial and removal from command.

| − | While not technically an Imperial Citizen, the framework of the exchange program was quite clear; while operating in the other's territory, Kingdom and Imperial both would be subject to local chains of command and laws at all times. Immunity was not a possibility. The military tribunal overseeing the court martial
