While reforms under the Tyrstin Ministries furthered political representation of the group, in the modern day, only 21.3% of Az'ra students achieved 5 or more formal Secondary-Qualifications, in comparison to the national average of around 40.2% according to a study ran by the General Directorate of International Development and Living Standards, with a 1994 survey in Toryne'yn revealing that only 15 of a total 500 Ulvrikian Elves would be willing to let a room to an Az'ra tenant, with the number increasing for Nekomimi and Zrei, with 29 and 41 respectively. Provinican Historian Karl Arsil argues that such extended periods of species discrimination furthered the Az'ra identity of Za'lyr'zna, as communities were forced to develop a shared identity among different regional heritages and classes in order to survive in an often hostile enviroment.

Presumably occurring between 8pm and 9pm, on the 12th of October 2008, a group of Az'ra Elves broke into the Västrop Public Library through the back entrance, having previously disabled the alarm. According to police reports, the perpetrators seized any non-literary objects of significant value, including several Library Computers. Following this, the group left several bundles of flammable material (firelighters) across the floors and began to set the building ablaze, with a hooded individual seen by adjacent cameras leaving the front to leave the pile of burnt books, while the rest of the participants exited from the way they came in.
At 9:08pm, Uf'sy-Røp - a resident of Kek-æl - reported to the Kek-æl Fire Department of seeing smoke coming from around the District Centre, as well as an "odd smell" permeating from the area, which he later described as "like burning plastic and incense oils," joking that the smell could be sold as a "East Borean Scented Candle" to a local paper after the fact. According to an inquest done of the incident, several members of the Fire Department didn't trust the resident's account, leading to them sending an insufficient amount of resources to deal with the fire where it became evident that was the source of the smoke. The fire spread partly to neighbouring buildings, injuring 9 and killing 1 person before the fire was successfully put out at 12:32am, leaving the building gutted and substantial damage to the neighbouring structures, whose remaining occupants were evacuated.{{Borea}}
