The negotiations with the Dragonflies and the 504s over what direction to take your research in is interesting, to say the least, since both of them are quite interested in pursuing a materials science project, which is unusual since usually they have been more interested in weaponry. However, when Sammael points out that the pistol discovered in the Admin building is technically shared by all of you and thus it is in their interests that its use be figured out, and since there are apparently some very peculiar materials in it you need to improve your materials analysis capacity before that can happen. He also points out that it would likely allow the 504s to pursue development of personal body armour on their own, assuming that they could find samples of it... which given that some of their population is running mercenary contracts, or the salvage from the Admin Building, is entirely possible.

You've even heard some people whispering that you should seek out a new marriage for political reasons, but a lack of candidates and still not feeling up to that means that you don't think you really want to yet.

As important as training Miranda is, there are other Stone daughters, and they deserve a chance to earn traits too. The more well qualified heirs, the better. Having Miranda study the memoirs is almost like giving her a research assignment before resuming regular classes.

Wait...is Delcer right? If so, shit, maybe change vote?
...that might actually be very important since she is now the ruler of her own faction. If she starts seeing Psykers in her territory, she NEEDS to know what to do. We may want to give her a read-through of the Codex Aetherium.

We spent an action working with Victoria last turn (and didn't sacrifice her trait gain chance unlike Mirande's), and we are currently tutoring Anna, being her primary educator.

Dia's been afraid of telling Anna that her sister has the same kind of powers that the Alien used to kill Max.

No, quite the opposite.
At least from this, Grave Keeper seems to want people who didn't see star fall be the ones to really get into the memoir and comprehend it.
It sounds as if materials science is going to lead to better body armor for the 504. Given that these melee fighters are already capable of wearing improvised armor of metal plating sewn into their clothing while still charging with heavy power tools they can probably get some decent armor at a lower tech than most factions by just accepting a heavier weight.
On the other hand, rooftop solar is quick, saves us space, industry, and artisans, and doesn't really play to their strengths since they have a guild system providing them with artisans and more industrial capacity to absorb the strain of manufacturing fusion reactors. We need those artisans dearly, and fusion reactors drink them up.
The memoirs are important. Gravekeeper produced them specifically because Dia asked him to ensure that there was a way to pass on his abilities as a (relatively) stable psyker faction leader barehanded Eldar ass-kicker. We know that we happenstantially acquired the tools to construct a stable psyker tradition, and the write-in to get the memoirs was likely a large part of that.
She never gained the "envious" trait, so she likely got over it. Telling her would not have done anything to reduce the problem, and would have created new ones.
Possibly, but that is very different than telling her that her sister is one of them. Right now only two living souls know Mirande's secret, which is a potentially very powerful asset not to be discarded lightly.

My apologies, but I realized that I missed a vote: you can switch over one of your teaching centres.
I see what you are saying, but this is one of those things where we need to go all-or-nothing. Once she knows of the existence of Psykers, the chances of her realizing or finding out about Mirande goes WAY up. And that is not the kind of surprise you want to spring on someone.
Anna is in the best head-space she is likely to find. Plus, she may well have need of the special advantages a Psyker can give.

It will probably come up during Anna's military training, especially once we have our Willpower Training standarized. We need to tell her what she's up against, and who she can trust.
