Classroom Of The Elements

If I may, can I ask a question?

Are all humans equal?

As a wise man once said, "Heaven does not create one person above or below another." People like to throw these words around. That's not the whole quote. It goes on to talk about how, at birth everyone is equal, but things like effort and situation change their value.

However, this quote was said before Affinities came into existence.

Now, the simple answer is no.

Equality ended the moment Affinities appeared.

The rarer your Affinity, the higher your worth.

The hierarchy was never about effort. It was about what you happened to be born with.

Some people train their whole lives and could never hope to destroy a building. Others open their eyes and reality bends around them.

So, are all humans equal?

Maybe at birth. But the world seems to disagree the second your Affinity is revealed.
