Divination Commission

The Divination Commission is one of six commissions of the Xianzhou Alliance. 
==Description==
==Overview==
The Divination Commission's main tasks are to predict the future and process and preserve information. Through the crystal technology called "the jade abacus," the Divination Commission's diviners chart the ships' routes, strategize with foresight, and scry into the past to predict the future. The Divination Commission is responsible for gathering intelligence, devising strategies, and performing divination, as well as predicting the fortune of future events. The Xianzhou Luofu's Divination Commission, helmed by Master Diviner Fu Xuan, reviews every decision made on the Luofu, including the areas of navigation, governance, and military and civil affairs.
The Xianzhou Yuque was the birthplace of the Divination Commission, where the stargazers and diviners gathered to observe the stars and plot the path ahead for the Alliance. The Commission uses powerful devices such as the Yuque's Deca-Light Reflection Barrier Matrix and the Luofu's Matrix of Prescience Ultima to draw information from the past and predict the future by interpreting hexagrams, along with the Yuque's Cloudpeer Telescope, the ultimate astronomical observation device in the Alliance that can detect traces and signals of the Reignbow Arbiter's Lux Arrow and manifestations in the Alliance. Not only can it scry into the distance, but it can also be used to send out information. One of the Divination Commission's unwritten rules are the "three taboos" — "No insincere divination, no unjust divination, and no unpracticed divination."NPC Dialogue: Back'n Forth
==History==
The Divination Commission was founded by Grandmaster Xuan Yao on the Xianzhou Yuque. Stargazers of the Yuque once produced 152 consecutive years' worth of observational records about the dead planet Syracuse-III and watched as the Antimatter Legion crept very slowly toward this front line, building up an advantage, exerting pressure, and chipping away at any resistance. They speculated that behind the scenes lay an Overlord with a calm and self-sufficient temperament. Based on IPC records, at least 122 planets were plunged into chaos of unknown origin over the past 600 years before their ultimate demise at the hands of the Antimatter Legion. The Yuque's Divination Commission attributed these series of events to another unseen Lord Ravager. The Yuque's Divination Commission observed the destruction of Muldrasil around the year 5320 Star Calendar. The Antimatter Legion destroyed the wingweavers' home almost instantly. According to the speculations of the Yuque's Divination Commission, there may be other worlds like Muldrasil.
During an unnamed conflict on Thalassa, the Yuque's Echojade Fleet laid out a defense in coordination with the Yaoqing's encirclement and eradication of abominations. The Yuque's Master Diviner, Jingtian, determined the outcome of the battle and relayed it to the Arbiter-Generals, who in turn deployed Heroncrest Fleet of the Yaoqing instead of the Fanghu. Though the Fanghu's Ebonpearl Fleet could have stopped the abominations with their Vidyadhara cloudhymn magic, they were too far away, and current forces on the battlefield would have had to withstand multiple counterattacks from the enemy for six months before Fanghu reinforcements arrived. They pressed a strong offense for some time, but lost any hope of success thereafter due to the Devil Tide of Thalassa.
In the year 8072 Star Calendar, during the Third Abundance War, the Yaoqing and Fanghu alerted the Xianzhou Luofu about the assembly of the Denizens of Abundance, the revival of the living planet Ketu Mirage, and their attack on the Fanghu. The Luofu dispatched four brigades of Cloud Knights to help them fight, but they were still in a dire situation. Diviner Fu Xuan of the Luofu proposed a plan to the Six Charioteers to contact the Reignbow Arbiter using the Yuque's Cloudpeer Telescope, which would be shipped to the Fanghu using a Navis Astriger. The Yuque's Master Diviner, Jingtian, was the only person who had the permission to use the Cloudpeer Telescope and could send out a signal in the format of the Reignbow's decree. The Reignbow Arbiter then descended onto the battlefield and annihilated the borisin fleet using THEIR Lux Arrow, and nearly one-fifth of the Xianzhou Fanghu's delves were destroyed by the Lux Arrow's bombardment. Master Diviner Jingtian perished in the collateral destruction.
On July, Year 8098 Star Calendar, the Yuque reported continuing their explorations along an ancient shipping lane. Sometime in the present, the Xianzhou Yuque was trekking around the periphery of the Giant's Arm star cluster, plotting an ancient course as it continued its explorations. The ship's Cloudpeer Telescope captured signals from Reignbow's Lux Arrow traversing through three of its coordinates. The Master Diviner interpreted this as a divine mandate, and the Marshal issued orders for the Xianzhou Yaoqing Cloud Knights' Heroncrest Fleet and Red Ballad Fleet to both set out on patrol as hereby informed. In their recent observations, the Yuque Divination Commission reported that the Brood Lord Angqin lead his hunting pack against the Shepherds fleet near the Echidna skywall in an internal war between the borisin. They also learned from the IPC's data that the wingweavers' Peacock Angel legion had arrived at the Consternation Starzone to locate a Stellaron and revive their homeworld of Muldrasil. They also observed that the Baranza Forge, an industrial planet along the Luofu's route, had been completely neutralized by the Lord Ravager Irontomb's assault, deeming it a medium-low threat to the Luofu and advised its Divination Commission to monitor electrical signals from Irontomb's vehicle.
Sometime in the Year 8100 Star Calendar, a Stellaron was smuggled onboard the Luofu and shortly afterwards, a Stellaron Burst occurred. The Stellaron Hunters, Blade and Kafka, were suspected to be behind the incident. General Jing Yuan enlisted the help of the Astral Express Crew to find Kafka and bring her in and when they confronted her, Luofu Master Diviner Fu Xuan intervened to make the arrest. The group made their way to Exalting Sanctum as the Meridian Pin at the Divination Commission was malfunctioning due to the Stellaron Burst. Diviner and Repository Librarian Qingque then escorted the Express Crew to the Divination Commission where Fu Xuan had already brought Kafka. The Master Diviner then began her interrogation of Kafka via the Matrix of Prescience Ultima while the Express Crew listened in, as per their agreement with General Jing Yuan. While relaying the results of her interrogation to Jing Yuan, Kafka managed to escape with the help of Blade and the Ambrosial Arbor's revival as a distraction.
After the rebirth of Ambrosial Arbor, Master Diviner Fu Xuan was ordered to perform divination for the Ten-Lords Commission, with Judge Xueyi providing the dossier to do so, though the former claimed that it was not enough information. Xueyi then tasked the Trailblazer with apprehending wanted fugitives from the Disciples of Sanctus Medicus in Stargazer Navalia in order to use them as clues to hunt down the other disciples using the Matrix of Prescience. In return, she summoned Master Ryan from the Hall of Karma into an aurumaton in order for Chengjie to speak with him. Sometime after the crisis, Jingliu and Luocha, who were suspected to have smuggled the Stellaron, were to be sent to the Xianzhou Xuling to be held for a joint trial before the Ten-Lords Commission and the Seven Arbiter-Generals according to protocol. However, after General Jing Yuan reported the events to Marshal Hua, General Yaoguang took an interest in their case, and had the Deca-Light Reflection Barrier set up, detouring the two to the Xianzhou Yuque. 
Master Diviner Fu Xuan had also been summoned to the Yuque for questioning and to meet General Yaoguang. Lingsha, the newly appointed Cauldron Master of the Luofu Alchemy Commission, ordered the forbidden books confiscated by the Disciples of Sanctus Medicus to be brought to the Divination Commission repository for sealing as soon she started her position.
