What would happen if Gezka FaucMerz met Father O'Malley? The first is from the SF novel The Children of Loki also called In the Blink of an Alien Eye. The second is from An Adventure in Indianapolis. In truth, unless Father O'Malley had special protection or unless the FaucMerz did not meet the priest until years after she met Kiel Bronson she would slaughter the priest - literally: the only other exception would be if God personally intervened with more power than an older brother between siblings.
O'Malley's soul is probably in better shape than Gezka's but its not really her fault. She was conditioned to be a fighter in every way and on every level. Her big thing is really that when she went AWOL from Emperor Rejkyavik's "space navy" she seized what little free will there might be in her otherwise thoroughly arranged life. Gezka's human makers planned to give her only slightly more free will than you expect your washing machine to have - only sentient.
