The Skill-coterie, when formed in the traditional and right way, is a mutually chose group of six people who are trained in the Skill that aid the reigning Farseer monarch. It was customary that the Skillmaster would regularly seek out youngsters who showed potential for the Skill and bring them to Buckkeep for instructing them. Strong Skill-users have always been rare, and there were seldom more than two or three coteries in existence at any time. King Bounty discontinued the practise of building these coteries, probably believing that restricting the Skill only to the highest royalty would increase their power.
