“The king had mistreated his concubines terribly and kept them locked up, so Qarat’ash preached against segregating society by sex, because they thought that would stop what’d happened to them from happening to anyone else. They said that if we are all one under the stars, it is immoral to differentiate ourselves based on our physical forms, and that everyone should simply be a person, and thus everyone would be liberated equally. Which sounds nice enough at first, but you see how that can very quickly go to shit in the hands of the wrong people.”
