Saleen knew what he wanted to do in the future. Now, he was ready to face whatever was to come, especially after he had already gone through so much. After all, a mage cannot simply go around killing people with impunity or treating common people as if they were nothing!
This was due to the fact that those people were also part of the world. Thus, destroying them would throw the world out of balance, thus causing the mages to lose the balance that was necessary for further research in their environment.
Besides, every mage emerged from the ranks of the common folk, which meant that their souls bore the mark of the common folk. As they were high level creatures, while there were many humans who went about killing each other, they were simply not a race that would do such a thing, as that would basically be the same as causing their own race's extinction!
