But in any case, I wasn't really talking about whether it fit perfectly or that it was the way things are going to go, only that it makes more sense in general.
But the only "worshippers" of the shield hero would have been Raphtalias' kind and from what we have been shown so far it seems like they have been oppressed for a very long time by the humans in Melromarc. Unless there was some sort of coup against the human oppressors in Trashs' youth, this only works if he originally comes from a country where those kinds of values were inverted and there is one such place, but we don't have any confirmation he is from there.
