I'm with Liz on this, I don't think most of the folk in Mid-World are happy with everything falling apart at the seams. The Callas seem like the exception, with the exception to that being the Wolves stealing their kids every generation.
"It's his eyes, Roland thought. They were wide and terrible, the eyes of a dragon in human form" - Roland seeing the Crimson King for the first time.
"When the King comes and the Tower falls, sai, all such pretty things as yours will be broken. Then there will be darkness and nothing but the howl of Discordia and the cries of the can toi" - From Song of Susannah
And how do we know there are no more many villages like the Calla?
Roland would have understood.
Well we can only go by what Roland has said and what we see throughout the series. There might be other communities that are happy but it seems not. By the way there are many Callas remember?

I couldn't live like a Manni. I can't live without roots.. I know they have roots and they know where they belong to but they are big travellers and I can't imagine myself as a big traveller. I love travelling but it couldn't be my lifestyle.
Roland would have understood.
I love travelling as I've told you and it could actually be my lifestyle as long as I stayed enough time in one place to become familiar with it. Anyway, the Manni interested me a lot because they're way more knowledgeable than all the other creatures in Roland's world.
