This also has been shown when Bala was stuck with Z because of a plot twist, she hated this at first but slowly Bala was glad she got stuck away from that community. She soon started to despise of that community and its foolish rules. After Z with enough courage started to show people what injustice is happening with them, he encouraged them to take action against unfair treatment.
