* DarkSecret: The origin of the Changelings is this; the First Queen of Meridian (Escanor) made a deal with Augustus (yes, THAT Augustus) in which she would give him gold and magic and in return he would give her his political opponents/various criminals in Roman Society. Escanor then used horrific experiments to turn these prisoners into the first Changelings, using them as her shock troops to unite Meridian under her banner. One of the things that prompts Allora to launch her coup is Weira planning to not only pardon most of the changelings but publicly reveal the truth about their origins.

** Changelings are viewed as abominations by the rest of Meridian, driven to the edges of society and forced to live on the scraps they can hunt and scrape together. Part of the justification is the fact their ancestors (who Augustus gave to Escanor as payment) were criminals, bandits and political opponents.
