Authority does not always mean majority, that is correct, but the specific context that I have an issue with in relation with Thuram's quote is when the majority is actually the authority, when that majority is wrong, and only few individuals care to go against the flow. When that majority stifles all forms of dissent even when some do have a point or can be negotiated with, often through violence or making them shut up. The lack of freedom of speech, and authority actually listening, or simply, communication, so to speak. It's not always the case that a collective does not accomodate individuals.

Nephis... or some such

The knights who went with the Duke were also gonna oppress Border Town though. I mean, Morning Light and company seem to be better people than the ones in this chapter, but I was hoping for a legally fair basis for how the law was implemented differently in the two cases (the knights under the duke and the knights under Timothy).

I imagine Carter brought up that reason because he is too concerned, while May obliged because she was not interested in the first place before Irene convinced her to watch.

Recommendations please? I don't read for pleasure too much these days but I'd like to take note for future reference. Though, I'm also looking for this quality of side characters in dramas (K-Dramas for example) which is somewhat rare for dramas as they typically don't explore side characters extensively.

My premise for this idea is just a network of my assumptions from my reading, but I'm no geneticist so don't take me seriously lol 1. Genes may influence how emotional we are or how we respond to stress. Stress may also affect and change our genes/DNA. How a person responds to stress may positively or negatively affect the genes that are ideal for awakening. 2. Awakened witches who are able to respond proactively to adversities and freely exercise their powers tend to survive longer. Conversely, those who concede to adversities or had to hide their powers tend to die young due to the so-called demonic torture. Non-awakened humans who behave similarly are possibly shutting out the awakening and growth of powers in their bodies. 3. In the awakenings of Anna, Nana, Summer, and Sharon, desires borne of stress awakened their powers. For Anna, the fire in her house may have caused a desire to survive, leading to the acquisition of fire-based abilities. For Nana, she desired to help a bird with a broken leg, leading to a healing ability. For Summer, she longed for the fish that her brother gave her but was half-eaten by her sister, leading to an ability that replays the past. For Sharon, she wanted to stop her classmates from bullying a fellow classmate, leading to a... taser ability? 3. Covertly, girls were kidnapped by the church, possibly en masse, for 400 years. Overtly, witch hunts were being done. These can be stressful events to non-witch humans and even more to women. Again, non-awakened humans who tend to avoid adversities may be shutting themselves off from magic power. 4. Girls who were not kidnapped and went on to be mothers were possibly living in generational poverty. Perhaps, malnutrition may be non-ideal for awakening. I assumed that genetic traits that are ideal for awakening might recede or remain unexpressed given those reasons. Although of course, I don't know if 400 years is enough for this assumed phenomenon, and I'm not even sure if these assumptions really make sense. But even then, as written, awakening is random, and Agatha proposed that the magic tide may be on its low side. Anyway, I just wanted to blabber haha

Kami ni inori wo!
