Sushi walks over, newspaper tucked under her arm before plopping down, "Morning, sorry for bothering you Skriggle, but what are you working on?"

"Ouais. Mais, are you adopting multiple at once to pick the best candidate?"

"First, at the age of 5 moons, we test each child by having them fight giant spider hatchlings that er captured for this purpose. Then, those who pass that test er further tested by competing against each other in a simplified Gøblenish Chess tournament. The top 32 er then put to the final test: they must race all the way around the edge of the entire cavern, using only their wit and will to survive. The first 8 or 12 to return to the start are chosen as candidates."
