Gu Shaoyu was right about one thing.
No matter how devout the fanatics were, once their prideful beliefs were crushed by the iron wall called "reality," they would recover their rationality. They would change their ways, lower their status, and solve their problems in more civil, cunning ways.
The thirty years of bitter war had profoundly educated the nobles, priests, clan leaders, knights, mages, and the most devout and loyal believers of the Holy Light faction.
Those extremists used to firmly believe that the Holy Light races, as well as Chaos races were irreconcilable, and that their piety was absolute. However, they were all crushed into paste by Dragon City's iron torrent.
