To Peter and his English Friends:

These questions are from one of my Japanese friends for Glorantha ITHW setting, (I don't know who wrote these parts of the book,)

What the proportion of Slaves aside from Mudders and Weeders (are these Alkothian words?) of Dara Happan Cities live inside of their cities?

As far as I read Glorantha ITHW, citizen Bureaucrats and commoners are not Slaves.
And maybe Danfive Xaroni and Eleventh are prisoners of war and captives. But I don't know how far modern Lunar custom has been induced to these cities.

What is the concept of Dara Happan cities? It seems several cities outside of DH area (Henjarl, Vonlath, Esvuthil) also hold minority of DH stock. How do they live outside of their "natural" circumstance? And what is the commoner's status who generally lives inside of city walls but has lived as farmers? And if the City Walls surround the boundary of these farming lands, it should be also called "inside of DH cities"? (maybe it should go to the reverse of Orlanthi.....)

What is the current status of Relationship between Imperial University and Social Ruling Class? (I think Tatius the Bright is one example, but...) What is the education-level of Ruling Class aside from Reaching Moon Megacorp printed matters? How has gone to their militaristic of these Dart War Ruling Class and Bureaucrats?

What is the model of Lunar Imperial University in this book? Aside from some parodical source of RW modern American university.... Feudal Europe or Islam? Or it should be put on another countries?
