The Serene Affliction
A term coined by certain people of the Enaid to describe the long-term effects of the Ether Folk's Enhanced Hormonal Gland technology. As the Ether Folk can literally will themselves to erase negative emotions such as despair and anger, their constant state of serenity has made them spoiled or even warped. The veracity of this "disease of virtue" is tenuous at best, and it is most likely a rumor spread by parts of the population who do not approve of our cordial relations with the Ether Folk; perhaps it was even made by one of The Revered themselves. It doesn't help, however, that the Ether Folk finds all this moral panicking to be extremely amusing, even making their own cautionary propaganda of the disease to stoke the fires of hysteria within the Enaid.
