The object of the present paper is to institute a rigid inquiry into the validity of this opinion. The author has, for this purpose, examined an immense number of brains of persons of different sexes, of various ages, and belonging to different varieties of both Man and Kha, by ascertaining their exact weight, and also by accurate measurement of the capacity of the cavity of the cranium 5 and has arrived at the following conclusions. This is a topic of recent importance, as those powers within the Holy Orenian Empire, and to extent within our own Grand Kingdom, would see to it that the cultural practices of Highlander sects would be oppressed in conjunction with deeming creatures such as the Kha of equal ability in a Man created social structure. Brain of Man The weight of the brain of an adult male Highlander varies from 2bs.7oz. to 3lbs.3oz. troy weight: that of the female weighs, on an average, from 4 to 8 oz. less than that of the male. The brain usually attains its full dimensions at the age of seven or eight and decreases in size in old age. At the time of birth, the brain bears a larger proportion to the size of the body than at any subsequent period of life, being then as one sixth of the total weight; at two years of age it is one fourteenth; at three, one eighteenth; at fifteen, one twenty-fourth; and in the adult period, that is, from the age of twenty to that of seventy, it is generally within the limits of one thirty-fifth and one forty-fifth. In the case of adults, however, this proportion is much regulated by the condition of the body as to corpulence; being in thin persons from one twenty-second to one twenty-seventh, and in fat persons often only one fiftieth, or even one hundredth of the total weight of the body. The brain has been found to be particularly large in some individuals possessed of extraordinary mental capacity. No perceptible difference exists either in the average weight or the average size of the brain of the Highlander and of the Heartlander: and the wrinkles are not larger, relative to the size of the brain, in the former than in the latter. In the external form of the brain of the Heartlander a very slight difference only can be traced from that of the Highlander; but there is absolutely no difference whatsoever in its internal structure, nor does the Heartlander brain, exhibit any greater resemblance to that of the common monkey than the brain of the Highlander, excepting, perhaps, in the more symmetrical disposition of its convolutions. Such findings provide adequate evidence that the major groups of Man are indeed of equal intelligence and capability, giving reason for their equal treatment, spare for noble purity. Brain of the Kharajyr The weight of the brain of an adult male Kha varies from 31bs.3oz. to 4lbs. 1 I oz. troy weight: that of the female weighs, on an average, from 1/2 to 5 oz. less than that of the male. Similar to that of Men, the brain bears much more proportion to the size of the body at birth, and decreases with age. The similarities in shape are also shared in reference to the proportion to the relative fitness of the creature. Throughout this project, it became evident that coming across a specimen of extraordinary mental capacity, in similar relative difference to that of a Man, was not possible, or exceedingly rare; Therefore no similarity can be drawn between that of an above average Man and an above average Kha, however if one were to be found, it is expected to have a similar relative outcome. Evidently, there is a highly noticeable difference between the average weight, and average size of Man and Khas. Additionally, where the brain of Man has distinct ridges and valleys throughout the surface, that of the Kha is quite different. While still presenting high and low points, the overall appearance is more smooth. Continuing in highlighting differences, the brain, and the chamber contained by the canium, is covered in a viscous slime-like fluid. While the reason for the presence of such liquid is unknown, a working theory relates the slow movement of the substance to the relative intelligence, and in extension consciousness, of the Kharajyr. Closing Remarks With proof obtained though the most recent methods and techniques, it can be ascertained that the common opinion popular throughout groups of Men has a basis in the physical. It can be expected for Kha to perform below the average Man, which may be found self-evidently in the barbaric and simple social systems that are found within their communities. It cannot be expected of these creatures to perform the same social duties within our societies, as such it is irresponsible to give them such channels. The Kha is not above those other creatures in the kingdom of beasts, and is little above that of the monkey, giving Men perfect reason and justifiable right to do with them as whatever their culture wishes.

Haskir quietly laughs at the closing of the study, "Juliyus Kortrevich -- and from where did they collect Kharajyr for this paper, I wonder? Pintus!" He exclaims in insult. The pantera furls the writings and stuffs them into a bag. "To think they'd once sought Kharajyr for the Attenlund journeys. Hah!" 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

chaosgamer_ 754 Share Posted July 24, 2021 “They what!?” Rha’Kir cried out in anger as he read this paper. “I spent my alchemical powers so they could claim the Attenlund! 2 Kha died so they would get their lands. WE CONTRIBUTED TO THEIR EXPANSION OF LANDS! We healed their humans, we helped them with research, and this is how they repay us?” He yelled out “We had King Heinrik and the Royal family for dinner at our village! They will hear of this blasphemy” he said as he went to write a bird 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
