The discussion with the three Larkinson elders hardly resolved his doubts and uncertainty surrounding the imminent adoption of outsiders into the clan.
On one hand, Ves gladly welcomed the expansion of the clan as long as the original Larkinsons remained in control.
On the other hand, Ves did not want the clan to become too stratified and locked in class tension.
He knew from observing other family organizations that dividing family members into a group of core members and outer members happened very frequently.
Many families, clans, noble houses, dynasties and etcetera often faced a similar situation as the Larkinson Clan. Expanding their group often had to be done for one reason or another, but the persistent question remained. How much power did they need to give up to accept the outsiders into the clan?
