Ain’t about how fast I get there.
Ain’t about what’s waiting on the other side.
It’s the climb.

The Climb Rules
The mountain doesn’t rush you,
it only asks that you keep climbing.
- Leagues must be completed in order - from the Adran Premier up to the WSL.
- Move on only once both objectives in that league are achieved.
- After completing a league’s objectives, stay until a job opens in the next league.
- If promoted, step aside and continue the journey in order.
- If sacked, drop down a league or stay at the same level.
- Failure isn’t an ending - it’s part of The Climb.
- The Climb ends only when the final summit - the WSL - is conquered.
It was never about the view from the top.
It was about who she became on the way up.
