I would suppose that the life expectancy in LoGH's
low. Maybe around 30~40. This may seem too low to a
lot of you, however, think it over. There's millions
of young men that died in the wars, the nuclear bomb
Reinhard over saw on purpose, all these factors can
pull the average age down. Besides, except the core of
the power in Impartial, we don't ever see old people.
