"Richard Bale, of Balisand, comes from a long line of antagonistic duelists in an age when duels are going out of style and duelists are viewed as little more than murderers. He is a hero of the American Revolution, and a Federalist, in an age when war heroes are going out of favor, and Jefferson's Democratic-Republicans are rising into power. Richard Bale is a man from a different time, a man who is unable and unwilling to adjust to the changing social climate.".
