Despair

Elsewhere on Yotai Shien 3, the consequences of Minerva's betrayal and the intricacies of Nylreg's machinations also began to manifest themselves in more or less unexpected ways, as did Sigmar's no less insidious precautions to protect his people.

The first precaution the former Fluid Grandmaster had taken was to save those he believed to be his world's future. Perhaps because of some lingering attachment to his former clan, Avy and her most promising guards had been evacuated before the final battle, including the natives without any fighting potential whose minds were still intact.

The soldiers and Fluid Wielders who stayed with Sigmar to fight were predominantly old or already badly injured veterans. Their evolutionary potential had been reached and most of them had already fallen into a state of semi-insanity. Their killing and debauchery impulses had already reached an unsalvageable level and unlike Players there was no hope for them to ever come back to their senses.
