The Quelled are an untouchable caste, while the Chosen hold privilege; Elsha resists injustice and works to improve conditions for the Quelled.
The book includes oppression, ugly prejudice and sexism, as well as a socially enforced division between the Quelled and Chosen.
This is a grounded book brief while Suitabook strengthens the analysis: the current material supports only a cautious reading; another book-specific source is still needed.
