All sides in this war have their dark side of the conflict in any war that will only seek personal gain for themselves as we have seen even through the MSQ. Yet such is the way of war to always put good people against each other because of conflicting ideals and the ambitions of others.

    Both sides have good people who, if they can just put aside their allegiances towards their own country and/or how things are handled, will certainly get along together and make a better country. However, like all wars the conflict of what and who will be the leadership of the territory and what standards they should have for these countries have always put each side at odds with each other even if they have common goals.

    Bajsaljen and Gabranth most likely may get along just fine if they just put side their ideals of who should be leading the territories of Bozjan and Dalmasca since both seek the same thing being a new country that treats everyone as equals. Not to mention far better results in creating a country of equality despite certain resistance towards that equality.

    I'm still of the mindset that Gabranth is fully aware of who is against his plans. I won't be surprised if he sets up the people in a unit that will get completely destroyed so there will be nobody left who is still for the nobility system. So far the man has been a planner on the level of Vayne from FF12, so I'm anticipating us getting played pretty hard in the next part of the storyline.

    That's the dramatic irony here. Because there is a war and both are born on different sides of it and come from different background and races they'll never know until it is too late.

    It is rather a bit soon to determine what kind of person Gabranth is since we only seen the opinions of those who follow him and the opinions of others who only know about him through stories. We may have to wait until 6.X era content to really get to know what kind of person FF14 Gabranth is if speculations are right about Bozja Save the Queen storyline being just delaying the inevitable fall of the Castrum and Gabranth's story being continued in 6.X era within a new location.

    Such is the way of war after all. As once said by the Doctor in Doctor Who series...

    "This is a scale model of war!

    Every war ever fought right there in front of you!

    Because it is always the same.

    When you fire that first shot, no matter how right you feel, you have no idea who's going to die!

    You don't know whose children are going to scream and burn!

    How many hearts will be broken!

    How many lives shattered!

    How much blood will spill until everybody does what they were always going to have to do from the very beginning!

    Sit down and talk!"

    -12th Doctor
