 Females usually try to avoid permanent relationships until they are established, or expect to shortly become established, in a permanent location (or sufficiently stable life situation). In terms of land, this does not necessarily mean literal //ownership// - many [[takma:|takma]] families are serfs or tenants - so much as that the female has a defined area that she lives in, that she feels is her home and she belongs in, and that she is not likely to be dislodged from (especially by the legal owner).
-The yearning for a territory of one's own tends to emerge between two-and-a-half and three cycles of age: early or mid-adolescence. Being most familiar with and comfortable in the one in which she was raised, a young female may feel inclined to challenge her mother's authority there, as well as any sisters who are of an age to be doing the same thing. This also applies to situations that take the same role in the subconscious; the character [[person:ilirith|Ilirith]] was taken from her literal family in early childhood, but was raised under the aegis of the [[person:ankorineth|Matriarch]] of [[avishraa:community:alvraan|Alvraan]], who effectively became her adoptive mother.

 Prosperous families are able to defuse this situation by giving the daughter a sufficiently large amount of personal space and authority to satisfy them; the very wealthy may have enough land to simply carve off a piece and give it to the daughter, but more usual is to make the girl a tenant on the property, or else to give her her own large personal space and a specific role in the management of her mother's affairs. (This is essentially the solution the Matriarch used for Ilirith, who was kept quite content with her own space and a vital role protecting the Matriarch's interests.)
