Assuming the timeline worked the same way with the berserker/paladin conflict, she would have come to the conclusion that this means she could bridge the gap between the two guilds. She's not unaware Rhys made her after becoming the Ahura, but the concept that the person who would become the Ahura is good enough. Likewise, the person who would become the Spenta made a berserker, and that means we should give peace a chance! And then beat each other up in celebration. Diplomacy would have become more of a focus.
If that conflict was not a thing, or if Rhys was any other guild leader, then it's not quite as idealistic. There would still be some degree of, "I was created to be just like this, so it's okay if there are flaws," which was an epiphany moment for her, but she would have a lot of questions about why she was made a berserker. She would eventually confront him about why she is how she is, and why didn't he make her more like him, or just more... berserkery. At that point any encouragements ring hollow. There's no Ahura authority to fall back on. Berserker is her favorite though. She would (hopefully) come to realize that and gain confidence.
Execptions-- Mazda Rhys: Virelai can believe she is his repressed berserker side. One day she would discover the concept of anima/animus on the internet, then proceed to apply other Jungian concepts to Gunnar and Victor. And now I want her to do this anyway and be inaccurate about all the things.
Asha Rhys: She'd accept herself as "like a golem," and a berserker is very different from a mage, so it makes sense to experiment. Maybe he ran out of the materials they use on Earth when they do it, and that's why she's so short... Khshathra Rhys might get the same leeway if constructs were used as a parallel, but then she'd fashion construct-like armor for herself and try to blend in at the alchemist guild.
Also Siegmund that is awesome and I am sad we don't have it. How would he have handled being the Armaiti? Could that scenario have happened, or would he have done something terrible first?
