This thread just divulged into changing the prison system instead of really saying Airide was wronged by the guards.

Devy's left pretty much all of the Guard up to Chaos, so I'm not sure if you should expect an answer from him that wouldn't be something along the lines of "Talk to Chaos about it."

I don't mind fines and I'm pretty sure there was talk of having a mine set up underneath the fort for prisoners to work off their debt to the Empire; but that would require a new map and an update to Ajarv's own. There's talks about plenty of things being added to help stave the boredom for prisoners, but all of these things take time to do and work that few want to pick up.

There's no wars to warrant a prisoner army. And even at that, there wouldn't be enough. Taking Rome for example, they loved to get into a few wars every century. Devy's stated that there have been small conflicts here and there, but the only real wars we've been told are Heaven's Contention and the Sigro-Onigan war. They had about a 200 year difference between each other.

(I'm not good on the lore about snekmen, so I can't comment on that.)

Only a single branch of guards are really allowed to torture prisoners, and considering that the Guard Commander is an ex-Church Knight, I don't think he'd take kindly to torture as punishment. Not to mention everyone would complain that their waifu is mentally scarred forever.

We use magic lava blood, silly.

And the "Old" Guards got pretty corrupted, but I blame most of it on Sderg.
