	No Man A Slave – On Franco Domini, the basic aversion to slavery found in many societies and belief systems has been greatly magnified by the experience of the Flayer War. Perhaps even more disturbing than the concrete terrors and brutalities of that conflict, Frankish society is still grappling with the revelation that a huge swath of former Paradisium worlds have groaned under the thrall of the Illithid for centuries—and still languish in that living hell. As a result, passionate hatred for slavery and the desire to destroy it wherever it might be found is sweeping Frankish society. This is a sentiment that the highest military echelons and indeed Napoleon himself have actively encouraged. Unsurprisingly, it goes double for the enslavement of humans by nonhumans, and triple in cases where mental domination is at work or the slaves are fed upon.
