I bet Jaffur figured out how to enter people's dreams and we got spooked.

Also, I was thinking. These aliens all have their own martial arts, right? Anybody else think we should maybe pick one up? If nothing else, it would be good to analyze if we ever do the whole 'create my own style' thing.
 
Or it could be that our questioning was taken the wrong way:

Kakara: Are the guards influenced by mind magic?
Berra: Kakara Goku! I taught you better than to mistrust sorcerers like that just because of their magic!
Kakara: Are they or not?
Berra: Well, yes. But still!

On another matter:
As of the finals, all House Heirs who participated in the bracket are still in, so in all it's a good showing for the peerage. Some are expected to go no further -- those are the ones people generally think have lucked their way through thus far. That said, it's looking like most of the Heirs will be going far. The next set of Heads is going to be an impressive one, by all indications. Most exceptional is Heir Stauber. Much like Hansha Kumoyen, he's only a few years older than yourself. Unlike her, he's the subject of the kind of training that Heirs typically receive, and it has apparently stuck. He's managed to overcome some professionals in the ring.

Thus, while the peerage in general has put on a very good showing, House Stauber in particular is carrying themselves with a lot of pride over the fact that their fourteen-year-old Heir hit the finals and is expected to last at least a round.
We seem to have a golden generation. Should we start socializing and building our court?

Should?

Yes

Will?

No, that would take actions away from grinding multiform!
 
Right. Hopefully there is a big social event soon in which we can meet.

Well let's tally up the actions.

First actions we have to do to maintain relationships
2-3 actions on school.
1 action train misfits or doing something else with them.
At least one action to do with the seal

Second actions that get bonuses because we did them this year and want to continue.
1 action Train Tien Style
1 action Seer training

These seem to be the must haves leaving 10 left.

Competing for these actions we have
Study magic
Power of learning
Transcendence
Multiform
Command Training
Social
Mind delve
Stewardship
Drama club
Telepathy
More

To be fair, that already happened and put a significant rift between Berra and Kakara a few years back, because Berra didn't grasp that Kakara was opposed to the Sealing on ethical grounds and not just because 'eww witchcraft!'

...Yes please.

Should?

Yes

Will?

No, that would take actions away from grinding multiform!
By this point, taking actions away from grinding Perfect Multiform is practically a tradition.

Don't get me wrong, I want to develop it some day... but if it waits until Kakara is thirty, I'm not going to complain.
 
Well we might be manage better ki shielding this generation which should allow us to relax the restrictions somewhat.
... No?

The only possible way for the system of lords to function while relaxing the restrictions on Super Saiyan (rather than specifically forming one additional line of lords) would be to get wards up to snuff for SSJ2 and move the lord monopoly up to that.

Given that we have seen frequently in DBZ and BoD (whose power level system is used in AtE, and which may have other influences as well) that Saiyans get 'more Saiyan' when they pop SSJ, and their instincts to engage in battle and show no mercy are increased after they have, I doubt we'll be relaxing those restrictions even if SSJ3 becomes possible in warded areas.

Could you imaging a world with 2,000 SSJs? There would be no survivors...galactically.

I'm not saying we would do it then, I'm saying 'getting the wards incrementally better would not be in any way an enabler to passing out Super Saiyan'. On an infrastructure level, we could already support an entire population of super saiyans. It's the societal level that can't. The only way we could maybe pass out super saiyan without social revolution would be to get access to higher power states for the lords to maintain the current edge.

We could already allow all the house heads to be super saiyans were it not for the societal end. The societal end isn't fixed by 'somewhat better wards' or even on it's own by 'hilariously, infinitely good wards'.

amazingly enough, a society based around hiding from a Big Bad Boogeyman is going to have such problems
 
So, who do we want to interact with? Hansha? The Stauber heir? Cinthia? The Mato heir (with Fenella)? How would we go about it?
