I enjoy your takes on classes, and I eagerly await the next one.

1: I like the connection of daughter hood/ancestry to light. Light has a variety of meanings, but I haven’t seen ancestry before, though it makes sense.

2: I appreciate the idea of every class struggling with their aspect, especially the way that mages do. I would only add that the active classes (prince thief page witch knight mage, at least in my opinion) struggle much more openly and conspicuously with their aspect, to the point of breaking it/rebelling against it in many cases while their counterparts eventually embrace or learn to live with their aspect.

3: I know the master classes have a low sample size which makes analysis difficult, but I think they can still be interesting and useful. For me, this comes up when I find a character who doesn’t fit any other class, like Jay Gatsby (the most obvious hero of Hope ever). I realized that his situation and upbringing (often a defining factor of in class)were very similar to Caliborn’s. Thus, Gatsby is a Lord of Hope. The master classes are rare and tend to belong to legendary, larger than life figures like Gatsby, the cherubs, or (obviously) people like great rulers and poets.
