Why in the hell would you take a perfectly functional, extremely well-organized rank system and throw it out the window for this house system? I can tell you this much already — it won’t work. The military is already in chaos. Nobody knows who outranks who, since each house uses its own variant of the former system. If a soldier from the Warhare family is given an order from a commander in the Bladesman family, does he follow it? In a battle, which family gives the orders? The old rank system was flawed, but everyone knew their place. You may as well have divided Dustari into eight sub-kingdoms, and in the new world, Dustari will be weaker than it has ever been. You either need to define the chain of command, or do away with the system altogether. I’d choose the second option, because this type of feudal system will simply not work in Graal.
There were some problems that occured when implementing the system that shouldn't have occured, such as the unhelpful appearance of ranks I would not have preferred.

Things WILL be sorted out and it WILL be better than before. Once everything's sorted out, that is...
