Warning! The text below may constitute spoilers for people who have not played and finished Angels with Scaly Wings yet! [spoiler]The world has gotten complicated. Three city-states - also known as the trifecta - work on ensuring collective survival together, while each also faces its own individual challenges. But while the people who used to live in Bastion have a much better standard of living now in Covenant City, the introduction of complex politics - again dividing people over opinions of how to best tackle the city's problems - almost make some people look back at times before the dragons' arrival with nostalgia. Everyone pulled together when the threat of extinction was dire. Nowadays, unity is harder to find in the details, procedures and new possibilities brought by technology. The dragons, too, try to adjust to their new surroundings. Never before had a Minister of Defense needed to deal with defending borders against sapient enemies wielding human weaponry. Nor had they ever needed a Foreign Minister - in charge of managing relations with a culture the dragons still had much to learn about.

As the Minister of Defense, his duty lies with shielding the populace of Idyl's End from the realities of the new world.

As she used to work in an orphanage, she uses her experience of handling hatchlings to navigate the complexities of political issues.[/spoiler]
