It's generally accepted - either in canon, or from discussion here in the
past - that Vilani tradition has the _third_ child inheriting title and
fief, with the first becoming a shugili and the second going into the
military.

You didn't discuss that, as I recall, in Minor Alien Module 1: Luriani, but
the implication, from that module and from the Funny Fish stories, is that
the Mmarislusant maintain Vilani culture and traditions within the Luriani
cultural context.

Question - and this is for some commentary on an article that I'm working
on about inheritance and familial power patterns:

   Do the Mmarislusant maintain the Vilani traditions to that extent, or
   have they assimilated to the Luriani and follow Luriani expectations
   regarding heritage of title, fief, and familial archony?
