First time reading about Three Legacy? Three Legacy is a hive-based economic simulator with a sustainable skill-based rewards pool.

There are six different residence types in Three Legacy, and they all do the same thing. . .
Residences provide worker slots. Worker slots are where aliens 'live' while they are reading blueprints, constructing buildings, or completing quests. Having multiple residence types makes it easier to scale your worker slots with your household. Autonomy keeps your household actively queuing for worker slots to become available.
The remaining residences all depend on blueprints linked to the particular circumstances of an alien's birth. Some of them look directly at the parents, and some look at the ancestry. The blueprints that look at parentage are mutually exclusive, and the blueprints that look at ancestry are mutually exclusive, but it is possible for an alien to earn one of each.
With these mutually exclusive birth circumstance groupings, other residences will always lag behind the planning office (and will probably lag behind the Nursery as well), although a new player with a lucky birth timing could qualify for 2 or 3 different residences while they still have only one alien.
Having more worker slots than aliens is not currently of any benefit. When we release guilds, players with idle worker slots can benefit from sharing them with fellow guildmates.
The Grand library is a residence that is linked to the "Child of the Wealthy Sage" blueprint. This blueprint requires the sage and dowager to be the same, but the mother to be different. That makes it mutually exclusive from "Child of Parthenogenesis" and no alien can have both.
The game naturally creates paired sage/dowager conditions quite frequently. Most aliens are at the top of the sage leaderboard for three births in a row. Each of the first two births add value to their dowry, and by the third their dowry reaches the top of that leaderboard and they can be selected as both sage and dowager.
We doubled up on the race here. Under the same circumstances where some players are racing to get "Child of Parthenogenesis" first, every other player not in the "Child of Parthenogenesis" race could trigger a birth and earn "Child of the Wealthy Sage" instead. These races help keep the game economy in constant motion.
