Saying it was a bad situation would be putting it mildly. We've given up the blastia, so that's solved the major problems, but it also means that we have to change the very way we live. Blastia were used for everything...providing water in fountains, manufacturing tools, and, most importantly, they powered barriers to keep cities safe from monsters. It's been difficult, but...it definitely beats being swallowed up by that thing.
