Day four turned to research coordination. Multiple territories were experimenting with advanced techniques. How could that research be shared systematically rather than remaining isolated in individual regions? What standards ensured research quality? How could failures be documented as usefully as successes?
"Failed restorations teach us as much as successful ones," a research oriented healer named Vera pointed out. "But practitioners are reluctant to document failures. They fear it reflects poorly on their competence."
"Then we establish cultural expectations that documentation of failure is professional responsibility, not admission of inadequacy," Aria said. "Honest reporting of all outcomes, successful and unsuccessful, is what advances knowledge."
They developed protocols for research documentation and sharing. Established a continental repository where findings could be submitted and accessed. Created peer review processes to ensure quality without stifling innovation.
