Sir, I will begin this report on a positive note. We finally got around the problem of unassimilated mortals understanding the initial invitation message. They will no longer have the words projected into their mind, as this has caused some cases of instantaneous insanity in the latest case study. The message will now be projected on a small volume of divine mana on the area just in front of the individuals face, and it will be visible only to them. Of course, once the mortal is assimilated, their own mana projects notifications into their eyes. But we found that their own mind must have processed the message before they can project and understand it. That's the end of the positive segment I'm afraid.

I need to bring up a major issue that has arisen among the workers of MIO-3. They say they are grateful that we got sent a dozen of the higher ranked deities to assist with the arduous task of skill creation. The problem that they have found is that the deities involved are... less than open to teamwork. My team attempted to format all the similar skills into groups but encountered differences at the very core of the creation process. In essence, any two deities will create skills so differently shaped that it is nigh impossible to format it correctly.

The most prevalent example is the rivalry between Anahita and Benzaiten. Both have created skills that utilise the base element of aqua with the healing intention. But they have disagreed upon whether to use levels or skill evolution based on understanding.

This wouldn't be too much of a problem in itself, but as the entire spell system is still in its alpha phase, making skills that are too similar to how spells are projected to function will cause not only confusion but potential backlash among the more observant mortals.

I ask that you go above their heads in a metaphorical sense and alter the shapes of the skills so they all follow the same pattern. I only ask this as my team and I only have the jurisdiction to alter the way the mortals perceive them. And it is out of the question to attempt to obscure the necessary knowledge from them.

Furthermore, the final version of the notification system will not be ready in time for the first thousand or so assimilated planets. Users will likely find inconsistencies in what they are told and not told. Simulations show that the vast majority will find it easy enough to alter the notifications to suit them anyway, so there is no issue, but I am required to keep you informed.

One last thing, can you at least ask the creating deities to agree on the format of the given notification upon skill levelling. Even the ones that agree on using skill levels can't get that right.

Respectfully,

Gamayun.
