Editing Ammon Ranae (section)

==Background:==
Unlike many of her peers, she was not born from rape or by her mother being a forced concubine. Her parents loved each other and her father (who was a doctor), remained on Bajor after the Cardassian forces were defeated to stay with her mother, whom he didn't think would be accepted on Cardassia. He eventually converted to the Bajoran religion and both Ranae and Zarak were raised to believe in the Celestial Temple and the Prophets and they bear their names in the Bajoran tradition. Eventually the couple decided to have children, first Ranae was born and then 2 years later, her younger brother, Zarak. Her mother's name is Ammon Druya and her father's name is Ammon Ranek. Her family home is in Kendra Province. Despite open hostility towards her parents and eventually towards herself and Zarak, her parents chose to remain on Bajor and weather the storm of bigotry and hatred with a patience and tolerance that Ranae (while growing up), found rather bewildering. She found herself in many fights during her early school years to defend both herself and her brother, until her peers learned to leave them alone. Zarak is also in Starfleet as a Science Officer aboard an exploration vessel. He is married to a human whose name is Sylvia, whom he met while in the Academy. They have a son born 2407.05.08 named Zeal.
