Within the Human Race, there are factions favoring avoidance and direct confrontation.
Although these two factions are not on good terms, they at least do not openly engage in conflicts, resorting only to secret competitions.
However, within the infighting of the alien races.
It is generally the one with the bigger fist that's tougher; they never play at superficialities, only at the real thing.
The faction advocating direct confrontation is mostly allied with the Shell Pattern Race.
This means that the patterns on the back of the Shell People are clockwise.
The faction favoring avoidance mainly consists of the Anti-Shell Pattern Race.
After a major internal struggle between the two factions, where only the real fight is entertained, most of the Anti-Shell Pattern Race was wiped out.
The remaining members of the Anti-Shell Pattern Race.
Either became slaves, were expelled from the Shell People Race's settlements, or escaped with their tribes to live independently.
