Khan knew he was stretching himself and his teams thin. He had added project after project to his list, and each had something revolutionary about it.
The tournament kept most of Khan's workforce busy, and far more was ongoing. Building the training grounds, reinforcing the relationships among nobles, descendants, Global Army, Thilku, and Ef'i, developing magic items and supplements, studying the Fuveall implants, investigating the living elements, and Khan's new training method were all important tasks, which could be too much even for a noble faction.
The structure of Khan's faction aggravated the issue. He wielded immense political power and had almost access to unlimited resources but could count the people he trusted with two hands. Khan needed specialized and loyal people on those important tasks but was running short of them. A few were already overloaded with work, too.
