There were many that considered the last 5 centuries a rise of peace and prosperity. They celebrated the milestones like Liberation Day with great fanfare and sharing the legends of the war back then.
There were, of course, inconvenient figures or facts people tried to smooth over but Lind refused. He did not fight for a celebration but he would not let them be buried. There were the red robe Soulmancers and the Soulless that had committed many atrocities but rose up to bring down Xing nevertheless.
The Soulless were easier because of what was done to them but the red robes were harder to thank for obvious reasons.
That was nothing compared to a Fiend helping Lind at a key moment.
Alden was more than a rebel, he was something that gave Lind real clues to where the Fiends came from. He needed more information but it remained a fact that Lind and Lili would have been dead to Timat without any hope.
