TRADITIONS AND BELIEFS

Once an heir becomes Emperor, he is to choose an Empress and Two Consorts, when either the Consorts or Empress have cubs they are to be watched over to choose a possible heir.
Once an heir is chosen they're to be trained from the age of 2 sun-cycles (2 years) till of age or the old Emperor retires; do note an heir can be any gender. The new Emperor must either select the exceptional choice to produce their own heirs or the prevalent choice to let the Empresses and Consorts have outsider cubs and choose an heir from them.
Hiers must be strong, skilled, wise, and capable; several different lessons are taught upon these foundations, the primary focus of their training, and what'll most assist their domain to thrive.
