The Sages are keepers of arcane knowledge, though the mages of the [[Vellum Citadel]] are all but destroyed after Kyros' Edict transformed their home into the Burning Library. ==Background== One of the longest surviving schools of magic in the Tiers, the School of Ink and Quill is a venerable institution devoted to the acquisition and preservation of knowledge - or so the Sages profess. Putting more of their energy toward amassing knowledge than disseminating it, they began their scriptorium in 17 [[TR]] and through a series of incremental expansions, the structure became the [[Vellum Citadel]]. Through means overt and covert, the Sages amassed a repository of knowledge that was without equal in [[Terratus]]. Around 330 TR, to adequately preserve this knowledge, the Sages commenced work on a single magical scroll - the [[Silent Archive]] - which would contain the knowledge of the library and all of its contents for future generations. In 431 TR, the Sages of the [[Vellum Citadel]] publicly swore fealty to [[Kyros]], but from within the safety of their [[Vellum Citadel]], these scholars continued to study and copy forbidden lore, and used magic to repulse any attempts by the [[Disfavored]] and [[Scarlet Chorus]] to claim the Citadel that was promised to the Overlord. The militant faction within the Citadel braced for a long siege after the dissenters were silenced in voting. In retribution for their defiance, [[Kyros]] pronounced an [[Edict]] of Fire on the [[Vellum Citadel]], turning the home of the School of Ink and Quill into a smoldering ruin now known as the [[Burning Library]] in 430 [[TR]]. Surviving Sages scattered into the countryside as their former home continued to burn, sustained in a state of stasis thanks to a preservation spell cast using the [[Silent Archive]]. ==Organization== Not all Sages know magic, but those that have mastered the guild's traditional spells can employ magic of protection and preservation. It is a poorly kept secret that the Sages have gradually 'acquired' a wide array of magic practiced by rival mage guilds over the generations. ==Interactions== * [[Lantry]] is a Sage and a follower, offering the Sage's perspective on things. * Sages play a mostly subsidiary role outside the [[Burning Library]], appearing alongside the [[Vendrien Guard]] as casters and occasionally supporting the [[Unbroken]]. The one major storyline that involves them is at the [[Burning Library]]. ** In the Disfavored and Chorus paths, the Young Fatebinder has to kill the Sages hiding in [[Effigy]]. ** In the Anarchist path, the Sages leadership is ignored by the [[Young Fatebinder]], as their interest is only in the [[Silent Archive]]. Anarchists who were previously allied to the Chorus, obtained [[Snuffing Them Out]] without completing it, and avoided [[Effigy]] until after [[Betray Alliance]] can visit [[Renata]] for chats. ** In the Rebel path, the Sages can be recruited as allies for your third region. * Several Sages can be recruited into your service at the [[Spire]]s, though only if you were present at the Vellum Citadel during the [[Conquest]] and gave them notice. ==Reputation== ;Favor * [[Conquest]] **Warn the Mages before proclaiming the Edict of Fire. (Major) * Quests **Ask [[Hieronymus]] to write down what happened and make it clear you don't want to exterminate the Sages (Average). **Complete [[The Stones of Elucidation]] (Average). **Wipe out the [[Malice]] inside the Blade Grave Oldwalls (Major). ;Wrath *Quests **Kill [[Renata]] during [[Extinguishing the Flame]] (Major). ==Related achievements== {| class="wikitable sortable" |- !
