Well since a Noxius is forced to fight in the Bloodsands, out of debts or penniless, or out of past crimes or accusations (like Raubahn that was taken for an imperial spy), I suppose that a son could feel some resentment about it, unlike a gladiator son that might to the contrary feel a certain pride.
I was also thinking about calamities and serious events that took place in Gridania, and besides the Calamity itself and the Greenwrath, there was also the Creeping Death pandemic that killed  a third of the hyur there (no elezens though, it's just a hyur disease), but the main issue is that the two main accounts ingame are contradictory: one NPC says it was not so long ago, while the other says it was long ago actually. Hard to make an accurate sense of time here, but maybe Sounssy knows more?
