4/?: At least as a yeoman he was free to leave the manor unlike the serfs who were considered to be part of the lord's property.

3/?: He hadn’t even been able to grab his cloak before he needed to run. There was a definite chance of having his yeoman status revoked and then being forced to work the lord's fields in chains along with the other serfs.

2/?: He had just enough time to throw his crafter's book, healer’s kit, and supposed spell book into his backpack with a bit of travel gear after Conal the miller's boy had warned him the men-at-arms were coming. Other than that Lee just had his clothes and eating knife.

The most many people can hope for is a sleeping pod in a shared living space and enough money and food to make it to the next work shift.

"Rights" exist in equal measure to your own socio-economic power.

The homeless are sent to labor camps until they can prove they are no longer homeless. Debtors' prison was brought back. Civil rights exist only at the whim of the state.

The "humanoid" species: Humans, Elves, Dwarves, Halflings, and Gnomes at least supposedly have legalized rights.

The Elves' former slave species: Orcs, Hobgoblins, Goblins, and Duende have more questionable legal standing.

The population of the Earth was reduced to less than 3 billion, and no longer was all of that population human.

Elves turned out to be just as greedy, ruthless, and sociopathic as humans had been. And their three century-long lives let them accumulate more power and wealth.

I would welcome the Balrog at this point. As long as it made the end quick.

We are called to do our creative work, and it is a call we cannot ignore. But then there is survival. When we can get those two callings to meet it is glorious but when we cannot.... Well, something always has to give.
