    I guess that even if the Azim Steppe has yet to be strongly affected by the imperial rule, the Xaela there might look at the big picture and realize it's likely just a matter of time before they become targets, as we know from the DRK and WHM quests that they definitely have been strongly oppressed in some places, and one of the tribes is mentioned as being alive in name only thanks to Garlean slavers.

    The mention of them being ridiculed and humiliated in the WHM quests gives me the impression the Garleans are likely particularly racist towards them because of their appearance (Though it's hardly exclusive to their clan, as the Raen are mentioned as having had to prove their worth and overcome discrimination before they could comfortably live in the eastern reaches of Othard). I don't think we'll get a full scope of just how cruel the empire can be to its conquered peoples until we start moving into the more strongly occupied territories closer to Garlemald or the empire itself, though.

    I'm also kind of curious as to whether or not we'll see any Au Ra conscripts amid the Garlean forces we deal with in Stormblood, since there were small amounts of the non-Hyur races among their ranks in ARR.
