Furthermore, the color red is representative of passion and vigor. I envision a Zormite where people look forward with eagerness, and anticipation, not to the past with child-like nostalgia and woe. We will be strong once again.
Zormite has always been the blue kingdom though. Just because in our world, OOC, we make the connection of red->battle, dosen't make it ubiquitous to fictional worlds. Why can't blue symbolize battle, just as a tsunami will devestate entire countries or (in my case) a hurricane will send water to simply erradicate towns?

You know, it's a good thing the Orb never made it to 2k2. It would have gone Sphere of the Republic->Drow Spider Egg->Crimson Orb of Communism with the way all these retroactive Zormite re-writes have been going.
