How do Cia's experiences change her identity throughout the course of the book?

At the novel’s start, Cia has ultimate faith in the government. She is proud that her father made it through the Testing, graduated from the University, and is a leader of the Five Lakes Colony. However, her father’s secret and Michal’s subsequent confession about the Testing shows Cia that she is playing an important role in bringing down the current oppressive system. However, it’s necessary for her to remain under cover. Keeping her emotions in check, proving her worth, and gathering information from within is the way that Cia can contribute to the revolution.
