“You tend to lie on the ground, shocked into the perplex motion of the eyelids, the temerarious thought that war could indeed set us apart. You feel crumbled and there is no such thing as humble feelings anymore. The sole mention of your desiring is obnoxious and the proof of your efforts is also a wrong and futile outcome for us all. You feel worthless as a hole. And you feel that is where you belong.”
— Officer Alerina in her first speech to the masses

Callun stood up for the first time in seven years. The pain was gone completely once in his life and the result of the first medical experimentation of Olar, the blue mage, proved him to be an even greater asset to the faction. For once Callun felt no pain in his chest, he could move and could fight. There was no such thing, anymore, as disease. Olar would start to change everything in Tiria so fastly that the people would prosecute him and try to revert everything to the sick and primitive state it should somehow always have sustained.
