No who list to show Kikane is a villager or applicant, just your word.
No who list to know if Maasube is an Imperial (I am guessing not maran cause of slave Masters insignia and no_good sword).
But if I were to try and piece it together, I would say you got owned like a bitch to someone with out powers. And if you are a Blade, everyone is tired of Bak's shit and they are going to take it out on every other Imperial that they can take down. Thanks Matric for promoting this bullshit behavior.
Moral of the story be better and don't die or choose your friends wiser next time.
