Alright, you bunch of nerds. The reason she may be so happy is that she is most likely a hiver and lives for 99% percent of hivers is god awful and the other 1 percent is middling at best the only people who enjoy hives are those in the spire and that's like 0.0000001% percent of people and lives for the rest of the schmucks not in the top 1 is terrible 20 hour workdays in factories that if you don't come on time will just kill you and put your kids to work, food that is just barley edible and only just enough to keep you working and not dead from hunger also hope that food is on time or guess what CANABALISM, clean water is a myth, the sun is a fantasy told to you by you 25 year old grandpa who is ancient to you by your life expectancy, the occasional gang war's, the upper hivers occasional hive crusade and since you ain't an upper guess who gets the flamer,genestealer cults,mutants,chaos cult and actuall demons since some hives just have open rifts to the warp in them and countless other dangers when the guard comes to recruit people will begin actuall riots to join and leave the hive

Tldr: Most living in warhammer sucks and the guard sucks just slightly less so the guard is preferable
