Upon assignment to her branch, Ishka began studying at the Sez Toural Akademio de Medicina with the goal of becoming a doctor. She became fascinated with the meticulous attention to detail required of surgeons and elected to pursue this as her specialty. After eight years of intense study, her pursuit of the proper education was interrupted when her favorite uncle was exiled from Leya-I for not conforming. A few months later, he entered his Season and was unable to find a mate.  

His death hit Ishka hard and she began to question some of the fundamental truths of Al-Leyan culture. Remembering how the adults around her had reacted when she'd hinted at her telepathic abilities as a child, she feared the social stigma that she'd be subjected to if she spoke aloud and that she would be sent for Attitude Readjustment Therapy. Having seen what this had done to her uncle, she chose to leave Leya-I to continue her studies at Starfleet Medical Academy.
