I have a general inquiry that I've been curious about since arriving: this world seems to have a high number of sapient races in it. Not counting other Dreamfolk, there are nine alone in Aifaran.

Is this roughly analogous to the worlds the rest of you are from? If not, are those races all treated equally, as they are here? If not, what is the basis for that?

This is nothing like where I'm from. There are different kind of laguz, but only one type of human, and we leave our respective countries as little as possible.

We fled from human enslavement centuries ago, and there are still plenty of humans that would hunt us like animals or keep us as trophies. Perhaps the worst of the lot have been stricken down now, but attitudes like that are slow to change.

On my world, there were two. [As far as he knows.]

They fought. It was inevitable.

[Snort.] Rich humans treated poor humans like shit; only thing they can agree on is that the elves are garbage. Then the Dalish elves treat the city elves like they're the 'wrong' kind of elf.

Dwarves--like me--depends on whether you're born topside or not--that is, outside Orzammar, or in it. And whether or not you're the right caste. ...All humans figure we're just merchants and moneylenders though. [Pricks.]

Then you've got the Qunari, who... huh. [Just envision a giant question mark where the Qunari are, frankly.] I don't even know where to start with them.

Anyway. Those are your four races where I'm from.

There are a vast number of different species back home. I couldn't even give you an accurate count or estimate....and...unfortunately no. There is a great disparity among their treatment.
