Ridel taught Chanda many things, how to play Tongo, how to fight, and how to survive. Lodeia wasn't the best place to grow up, its harsh conditions were similar to that of Turkana IV or a Breen prison. It was eat or be eaten. Yet, young Chanda shone a light that could blind in this bitter darkness. When she first met her father, he was stepping down as Federation liason. He tried to make up for all his wrongs by getting her away from Lodeia, and bringing her to live with him. She lived with him for two years before deciding to leave and join Starfleet to get away and just think, but even space wasn't far enough away.
